This paper is a study on the development of a sensor for measuring tactile sensation. Human warm feeling on fabrics is compared with the sensor output. At first, warm feeling on each sample is collected through the questionnaire based on the paired comparison semantic differential method. Furthermore, human's motion for the evaluation of the warm feeling is investigated. Next, a sensor using the pyroelectric effect of a PVDF (Polyvinylidene Fluoride) film is fabricated. The surface of the sensor is heated through the temperature control. Then the sensor is moved and contacted with an object through the trajectory control of the contact pressure in order to collect output voltage of the pyroelectric effect. Finally, the measurement using the sensor is carried out on the samples. Comparison with the results shows that the PVDF sensor is available to evaluate the warm feeling.
