- This paper describes a toolbox for the design and simulation of capacitance-based tactile sensors, and discusses the main limitations associated with the simulation process. Models and simulation results are described, showing that this approach is a viable solution to investigate a number of system-level features otherwise difficult to assess with real experiments, because of the necessity of having different technological samples, in terms of cost and time. The toolbox developed is available as free software. The research leading to these results has received funding from the European Community’s Seventh Framework Programme (FP7/2007-2013), Project ROBOSKIN, and Project CloPeMa.
