A team of Chinese researchers has designed a “smart bionic finger with subsurface tactile tomography capability,” a device that can essentially mimic humans’ natural ability to “feel” the shape of objects and what’s hiding below the surface. The bionic finger’s scanning capabilities would be useful for “nondestructive testing” applications, both…
Researchers develop a robotic “finger” to securely scan the human body
