N2 - The spatiotemporal structure of mechanoreceptor responses is known to facilitate rapid tactile processing in the brain. To investigate whether such mechanisms can be replicated by artificial systems, tactile sensors with a large number of elements and sub-millisecond response time are required. In this work, we present a 4096 element tactile sensor array that can be sampled at over 5kHz. Experimental results demonstrate that high spatiotemporal resolution aids to resolve force magnitude and direction of tactile events. Such a platform enables the development of time dependent neuromorphic algorithms for tactile learning and signal processing.
