Abstract
A tactile sensor including an elastic dielectric layer, first ribbon electrodes, and second ribbon electrodes is provided. The elastic dielectric layer has a first surface and a second surface opposite to each other. The first ribbon electrodes are disposed on the first surface. Each of the first ribbon electrodes extends in a first direction and includes first sensing portions serially connected in the first direction. The second ribbon electrodes are disposed on the second surface. Each of the second ribbon electrodes extends in a second direction intersecting the first direction. Each of the first sensing portions has a first extending length in the first direction to cross over N second ribbon electrodes. Each of the first sensing portions has a first edge parallel to the second direction. The first edge is aligned with an edge of one of the second ribbon electrodes. N is a positive integer greater than 1.
