Sestosenso in the European Big Data Value Forum 2024

Sestosenso participated in the European Big Data Value Forum 2024, held in Budapest, Hungary, from October 2nd-4th, 2024.

ISSP UL and UNIGE showcased two demonstrators during the event. ISSP UL showcased a demonstrator of Optoskin - innovative large-area, electrode-free optical tactile sensor. UNIGE showcased invention Proxiskin - a novel sensory system based on miniaturized proximity and tactile sensors be integrated across the robot body, enabling unified perception of the environment.

Both inventions garnered significant attention and interest, as it represents a novel and unique solution in the field. Optoskin simplicity of operation is particularly remarkable, making it an intriguing breakthrough. Proxyskin seamlessly perceives the robot’s surroundings, treating proximity and tactile data as an extended sensing mode skin-vision. These developments can make substantial contributions to areas such as cost-effective sensors and robotics, demonstrating the potential for impactful innovation in these competitive sectors.
