Abstract
Systems and methods for perception-based tactile sensing in a robot are provided. The robot may include an external portion and an illuminator that outputs illumination. The robot may further include a receiving sensor that receives illumination. The robot may also include a pair of conduits, located at an external portion, that include an injecting conduit that traverses one or more housings of the robot. The injecting conduit may be configured to receive the illumination from the illuminator and output the illumination to illuminate an object external to the robot. The pair of conduits may also include a receiving conduit, traversing one or more housings of the robot, configured to receive the illumination from the object external to the robot and output the illumination to the receiving sensor.
