Description

The NumaTac Integration System for the JACO hand provides the mechanical and electrical adapters to integrate up to 3 NumaTac sensors into each JACO hand. The mechanical adapters have been designed to replace the distal segment of each modular finger and an internally mounted electrical adapter board can be used to aggregate and transmit tactile data through the arm to a computer. This system can be upgraded to a BioTac Integration System

This integration offers one sensory modality: the ability to sense initial contact with human-like sensitivity. The foam-based sensor is robust and maintenance free while providing a complaint fingertip.

SynTouch also offers an alternative integration system: BioTac System for JACO.
