Researchers at the National University of Singapore recently demonstrated the advantages of using neuromorphic sensor fusion to help robots grip and identify objects.

It’s just one of a number of interesting projects they’ve been working on including developing a new protocol for transmitting tactile data, building a neuromorphic tactile fingertip, and developing new visual-tactile datasets for the development of better learning systems.
