Its technical application range, in terms of robots: tactile sensors are sensors that control robot movements (such as grabbing objects) and are indispensable for sports, and can also be used for recreational machine pets (such as SONY's AI BOTM robot pets). Dog) is the interface between people and machine pets. In the field of information computers: tactile sensors combined with displays can be used as touch input devices, and are now widely used in tablets (Table PC), personal digital assistants (pers 1na 1 Digital Assistant; PDA) Control panel, fingerprint identification and virtual reality (Vi rtua 1 Reality). Industrial production automation: It can be used as a detection device for instrument calibration and product design. For example, the _-acoustic sensor can measure the distribution of force when the tire grain is in contact with the ground, which can be used to design the grip force. Good tires. In the field of biomedical science: Today's popular smart skin (sma r 1 s k 1 n ) is a typical application of soft tactile sensors. The research team of Professor R. Η〇we of Harvard University has also developed a tactile sensor that can replace doctor palpation (pa 1 pa ti 0n), which can be used to help doctors diagnose breasts and prostate tumors more accurately. disease. 099111590 Form No. A0101 Page 4 of 22 0992020522-0 '««'I Physiological monitoring: The future may also develop into a wristband or a tablet/disposable respiratory heartbeat, pulse physiological monitoring The application of soft tactile sensors is quite extensive and has great potential for productization, so it is worth investing in research and development. [Prior Art] Conventional piezoelectric tactile sensors mostly use a water-definition vinyl fluoride (PVDF) piezoelectric film having a double-sided silver electrode layer and the structure thereof must be patterned into a structured electrode. The price of a polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) piezoelectric film with a double-sided silver electrode layer is quite expensive. Therefore, if a polyvinylidene oxide (PVDF) piezoelectric film having a double-sided silver electrode layer is used, it will cause a feeling. The manufacturing cost of the detector is greatly increased. In addition, the patterning of the conventional silver electrode layer can be achieved without the conventional printed circuit board process, and the process equipment used is quite expensive. In addition, traditional tactile sensors are mostly limited to the measurement of positive force, while lateral force or multi-axial force sensing is less relevant, the following are for multi-axial force, lateral force, sliding, etc. The tactile sensor performs a preliminary analysis. For example, in Taiwan, the conventional touch sensor of the invention No. I 2 8 3 2 9 5 has a problem that the sensitivity to externally applied stress is still insufficient if a slight stress is to be measured. Therefore, in the present invention, at least one of the lower substrate, the piezoelectric material layer and the upper substrate acts as a pressurization layer. A convex structure is disposed between the pressurization active layer and the lower electrode layer or the upper electrode layer to reduce the stress area, and an external stress to be applied to the piezoelectric material layer is increased. When the external stress is applied to the upper electrode layer, an individual sensing signal is induced by the layer of piezoelectric material. Us 5 8 7 1 2 4 8: The main purpose of this patent is that the robot can use this device to recognize the applied gripping force without knowing the weight of the object being grabbed. Form No. 1010101 Page 5 of 22 S 0992020522- 0 201135203 The phenomenon of sliding, the material of the deflection of the unsuitable fluid, as shown in the left figure, is raised by the frictional force, and the maximum amount of deformation occurs when the object is grasped. Next (four), it will be recognized when the clip can be safely gripped. The amount of deformation is sensed by a capacitive shear sensor. USRE 2 7 η β c ΐ? . β 八 n J Ο 6 5 Ε · The sensor is on a soft material surface with a hemispherical round shield and a piezoelectric ultrasonic transducer at the bottom ( Transducer), the transducer emits an ultrasonic signal, which is reflected back to the piezoelectric film through a hemispherical shield to obtain a signal, and then determines the deformation amount of the hemispherical shield after the force is applied to calculate the surface Axial force eUS4745812: A small sensitivity tactile sensor that uses a micro-electromechanical process to fabricate a enamel structure, protects its enamel structure with a polymer, and utilizes a piezoresistive type of moon-sensing sensor. The amount of deformation is reversed. The magnitude and direction of the external force. Therefore, how to reduce the manufacturing cost of the piezoelectric tactile sensor from the viewpoints of structure, material and process, and the ability to simultaneously sense the multiaxial force and the lateral force are very important issues.

Therefore, the cost of the sensor material can be greatly reduced. In addition, the first flexible substrate and the second of the present invention The flexible substrate can be used to fabricate the first electrodes [0008] and the second electrodes respectively in a conventional printed circuit board process. Therefore, the efficiency of the sensor can be greatly reduced.
