This paper describes a novel force sensing system using nail deformation. Due to the two strain gauges attached to a nail, the magnitude and direction of the force applied to the fingertips can be measured. We devise a compact and easy-to-install sensor system and also introduce a calibration method. In the proof experiment, several types of basic verification were performed, then the applicability to work using fingertips was investigated.
