Thats a unique idea.You should consider the following idea to enhance your idea so that it would impact uniquely:  present a novel, soft, tactile skin composed of a fabric-based, stretchable sensor technology based on the piezoresistive effect. Softness is achieved by a combination of a soft silicone padding covered by a skin of more durable, tearproof silicone with an imprinted surface pattern mimicking human glabrous skin, found e.g. in fingertips. Its very thin layer structure (starting from 2.5 mm) facilitates integration on existing robot surfaces, particularly on small and highly curved links. For example,  augmented our Shadow Dexterous Hand with 12 palm sensors, and 2 resp. 3 sensors in the middle resp. proximal phalanges of each finger. To demonstrate the usefulness and efficiency of the proposed sensor skin,  performed a challenging classification task distinguishing squeezed objects based on their varying stiffness.
