Editing Haptic technology (section)

==== Telepresence ====
Haptic feedback is essential to perform complex tasks via [[telepresence]]. The [[Shadow Hand]], an advanced robotic hand, has a total of 129 touch sensors embedded in every joint and finger pad that relay information to the operator. This allows tasks such as typing to be performed from a distance.<ref>{{cite web |last=Dormehl |first=Luke |date=2019-04-27 |title=The holy grail of robotics: Inside the quest to build a mechanical human hand |url=https://www.digitaltrends.com/cool-tech/shadow-robot-company-hand/ |access-date=2019-07-20 |website=Digital Trends}}</ref> An early prototype can be seen in [[NASA]]'s collection of humanoid robots, or [[robonaut]]s.<ref>{{cite web |title=Robonaut |url=http://robonaut.jsc.nasa.gov/ |access-date=2010-02-26 |publisher=Robonaut.jsc.nasa.gov}}</ref>
