Chinese scientists develop robot multi-dimensional force sensors
Recently, Chinese scientists have made major breakthroughs in the field of robotics technology and have successfully developed a high-precision multi-dimensional force sensor, providing key technical support for the intelligent development of robots. The result is led by a team from an institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. The relevant papers have been published in the top international journal "Science Robot", which has attracted widespread attention from the global science and technology community.
1. Technical breakthrough: the core advantages of multi-dimensional force sensors
Traditional force sensors usually can only measure forces in a single direction, while multi-dimensional force sensors can detect forces and moments in multiple directions at the same time, significantly improving the robot's environmental perception ability. Here are the key performance parameters of this sensor:
| parameter | index |
|---|---|
| Measure dimensions | 6-dimensional (Fx, Fy, Fz, Mx, My, Mz) |
| Range range | ±200N (force), ±10Nm (torque) |
| Accuracy error | ＜1% FS |
| Response frequency | ≥1kHz |
| Operating temperature | -20℃~80℃ |
2. Application scenarios: broad potential from industry to medical care
This sensor can be applied to multiple fields, and the following are its typical application scenarios and values:
| field | Application Cases | Technical value |
|---|---|---|
| Industrial robots | Precision assembly, flexible grabbing | Improve operational accuracy and reduce product losses |
| Medical robot | Surgical force feedback, rehabilitation training | Ensure patient safety and optimize treatment experience |
| Aerospace Technology | Space station robot arm | Achieve accurate manipulation in microgravity environments |
| Consumer Electronics | Smart touch device | Enhance the realism of human-computer interaction |
3. Industry response: evaluation by domestic and foreign experts
This achievement has aroused high praise from the academic and industry circles at home and abroad:
4. Future Outlook: Technology Iteration and Market Prospects
The R&D team said that the next step will focus on optimizing the cost structure and mass production process of sensors, and it is expected to achieve large-scale mass production within the next three years. According to market research institutions, the global robotic force sensor market size will grow from US$1.2 billion in 2023 to US$3.5 billion in 2030, and China is expected to account for more than 30%.
This breakthrough not only marks China's technical strength in the field of high-end sensors, but also injects new impetus into the upgrading of the global robot industry. With the integration of artificial intelligence and Internet of Things technology, multi-dimensional force sensors may become the "standard configuration" of smart equipment, promoting profound changes in manufacturing, medical care, service and other fields.
