Short summary
This research presents a capacitive displacement sensor concept, designed for integration into a pin array gripper. The design is optimised for additive manufacturing, offering new design possibilities and enabling the creation of fully additive manufactured pin grippers with integrated displacement sensors. A prototype sensor was fabricated using additive manufacturing, and experimental results confirm the simulations and the functionality of the fabricated sensor for different pin materials.
