Zusammenfassung:A deformable sensor is provided. The deformable sensor comprises a deformable member defining an enclosure that is configured to be filled with a medium, a mechanical component disposed within the enclosure, and an optical sensor coupled to the mechanical component positioned with the enclosure. In embodiments, the mechanical component is configured to rotate at least from a first position to a second position, and the optical sensor is configured to capture first portion data associated with a first portion of the deformable member at the first position and second portion data associated with a second portion of the deformable member at the second position.
