Braille-reading robot features on Cambridge University's website

Our new paper “High-Speed Tactile Braille Reading via Biomimetic Sliding Interactions” is featured on Cambridge University’s research news following its publication in IEEE Robotics and Automation Letters.

This work looks at the ways we can use vision-based tactile sensors to interact continuously with the world around us. Braille is an excellent testing ground: whilst it is possible to read each letter one-by-one, it’s much quicker to use a continuous sliding motion like humans do!
