INTUITIVE

INTUITIVE will bring a step change in the scientific understanding about fundamental issues related to touch sensing and at the same time advance research in rehabilitation and robotics by developing new technologies.

INTUITIVE will bridge the gap between innovation and utilization by bringing a step change in the scientific understanding about fundamental issues related to touch sensing and at the same time advance research in rehabilitation and robotics by developing new technologies.

The scientific outcome of the project will be a soft biomimetic tactile skin integrating sensors, memory and electronics embedded in soft materials, and capable of encoding the haptics data as in the human central nervous system (CNS).

INTUITIVE is an Innovative Training Network under EU H2020 MSCA that will provide a unique research training opportunity to students within the burgeoning multidisciplinary field of haptic user interfaces, touch perceptual mechanisms in the brain, artificial touch in robotics, flexible electronics and their applications in robotics and assistive technology. INTUITIVE offers 15 early stage researcher (ESR) positions, to obtain a PhD degree or to conduct studies at an equivalent level for 36 months, each with strategic research training opportunities with exceptional career prospects in leading academia and industry.
