Optimisation of a Multi-Functional Piezoelectric Component for a Climbing Robot

Force sensors on climbing robots give important information to the robot control system, however, off-the-shelf sensors can be both heavy and bulky. We investigate the optimisation of a lightweight integrated force sensor made of piezoelectric material for the multi-limbed climbing robot MAGNETO. We...
