Object picking with two-fingered grippers is widely used in practice. However, the deformability and slipperiness of the target object still remain a challenge, and not resolving them might lead to breaking or dropping of the grasped objects. To prevent such instances, tactile sensing plays an important role because it can directly detect even the subtle changes that occur during grasping. Mechano...
