Electronic skin gives your robot a more delicate touch

If you've ever wished that your robot had a more delicate touch (hey, we ain't asking any questions), you may be in luck. Researchers at the University of Tokyo have invented an electronic skin that is supposedly as sensitive as human skin and that should make it possible for robots to identify objects and "carry out delicate tasks".

too bad they only kame out with this now. It is kind of too late for me seeing that my robot assists me nightly doing some chores of her own.

I don't need the whole robot actually, can i just have an arm?
