Originally, robots should be isolated from humans when working. However, in these days, the number of robots collaborating with human has been increasing. As the result, robots are expected to work under various conditions, and it is necessary to perform steady sensing in any environment.
In this research, we propose a sensor that can estimate the distance and moving direction of a nearby object in any environment by measuring magnetic permeability. Additionally, the sensor can detect a detectable object which is occluded by another detectable object from the sensor. We experimentally verified that the performance of our sensor is practical.
