In quality inspection, it is important to find deformation of parts surface. However, skillful techniques are required for tactile detection. It takes a long time to master skills.

In this research, we propose a planar scanning tactile sensor which detects deformation of the surface. It has a rectangular shape. And two strain gauges are placed in a V shape. And it is embedded in rubber. We conducted an experiment to detect deformation of the surface. As a result, deformation position was detected by the sensor. By improving the accuracy of the sensor, high accuracy and high efficiency of the surface inspection can be achieved.
