Tactile sensing can enable robots to perform complex, contact-rich tasks. Magnetic sensors offer accurate three-axis force measurements while using affordable materials. Calibrating such a sensor involves either manual data collection, or automated procedures with precise mounting of the sensor relative to an actuator. We present an open-source magnetic tactile sensor with an automatic, in situ, gripper-agnostic calibration method, after which the sensor is immediately ready for use. Our goal is to lower the barrier to entry for tactile sensing, fostering collaboration in robotics.
