Abstract

A technique is described to cast for a frame socket to be used with Force Sensing Resistors (FSR's) The technique produces the largest number of control sites and ensures that at each site all forces on the FSRs are normal not shear. Key elements of the technique are prior identification of the control sites, casting the 'immobile frame' first and the use of multiple splints to locate up to five sites with respect to the immobile frame.
