The graph above shows the linearity of the temperature sensor, showing that it can be used in the soft robotic gripper with accuracy.
This graph shows the temperature profiles of room temperature, the gripper, and the human hand over time. The blue line is for room temperature, the red line is for the soft robotic gripper, and the yellow line is for the human hand. The room temperature stays within 1 degree, which is not unusual. The gripper and hand have temperatures about 3 degrees away from one another, but this is not enough to make a significant impact on the results of temperature sensing in the gripper. Overall, there is no convincing evidence to suggest that the temperature sensor will not work in this soft robotic gripper.
