Abstract

As robotic platforms are designed for human robot interaction applications, a full body sense of touch, or "sensitive skin," becomes important. The Huggable is a new type of therapeutic robotic companion based upon relational touch interactions. The initial use of neural networks to classify the affective content of touch is described. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2005.
