Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A tactile sensor includes a flexible medium having electrically conductive strips embedded therein and extending in a first direction, said electrically conductive strips including conductive nanostructures dispersed in a flexible support material, said nanostructures selected from conductive nanowires, carbon nanotubes, and graphene, wherein each electrically conductive strip is connected at each end to an impedance measuring device that measures the impedance across each electrically conductive strip. The electrically conductive strips may be formed on a first layer of the flexible medium by using direct-write technology.
