Abstract: Pressure sensors are in modern robotics very significant because they enable force measurement, tactile sensing, and human-machine interaction. This work introduces the basic principles, various classifications, and applications of pressure sensors in robotic systems. The present work discusses different sensing technologies, working mechanisms, advantages, and limitations, as well as a sketch on current challenges, such as sensor robustness, sensitivity, and the integration of AI-driven processing. Emerging trends like electronic skin (E-skin), multi-modal sensor fusion, and self-healing materials form potential improvements facing the future of robotic sensing. An appraisal of the landscape and some future trends broadens knowledge regarding the niche future role of pressure sensors within next-generation robotics.
