Self-introduction & PR
	"Tactile sensing" is the keyword which combines three areas of advanced research; the sensor for robots, virtual reality and psychology physics. For further enhancement of current research, in recent year we are aiming to upgrade the recognition ability and the virtual reality for the robots. The research activities converge in advanced research that models person's tactile sensing recognition mechanism, the research on cooperated action acquisition of assembly robot, the research on the fusion process of the sight and tactile sensing, and etc.
