Sex robots could start to experience human-like sensations after scientists developed a new piece of artificial intelligence technology. The technology is part of a robotic platform that connects to sensors attached to “printed” human skin, which would allow the robots to feel senses such as touch. Scientists are hoping humans will be given more control over robots while also being protected from hazards—researchers believe it will allow robots to sense temperature and whether chemicals are toxic, according to the California Institute of Technology.
Scientists say that there will be sensors inside the “fingertips,” which makes it easier for robots to detect what’s around them. Researchers explain, “These sensors are literally printed onto the skin in the same way that an inkjet printer applies text to a sheet of paper.” One Caltech engineer thinks developers have demonstrated a “proof of concept,” but he wants to continue developing the skin, along with its durability so it can last longer, as well as its stability.
