Class TactileArrayModel


  • public class TactileArrayModel
    extends SensorModel
    the TactileArrayModel describes tactile sensor consisting of
    arrays of tactile cells that can be placed on a defined shape. The shape is described
    with a matrix of 3d vertices. Such that tactil (0,0) maps to the quad
    defined by the four vertices {(0,0),(0,1),(1,1),(1,0)}. Notice that the
    normal is defined by sequence of the vertices and that the normal defines
    the direction of tactile sensing.
