Skin-interfaced multimodal sensing and tactile feedback system as enhanced human-machine interface for closed-loop drone control.

ABSTRACT: Unmanned aerial vehicles have undergone substantial development and market growth recently. With research focusing on improving control strategies for better user experience, feedback systems, which are vital for operator awareness of surroundings and flight status, remain underdeveloped. Current bulky manipulators also hinder accuracy and usability. Here, we present an enhanced human-machine interface based on skin-integrated multimodal sensing and feedback devices for closed-loop drone control. This system captures hand gestures for intuitive, rapid, and precise control. An integrated tactile actuator array translates the drone's posture into two-dimensional tactile information, enhancing the operator's perception of the flight situation. Integrated obstacle detection and neuromuscular e
