Re: Sensor redundancy - how much is enough before it's just extra failure points?

Tangent, but worth mentioning:
Unitree's Dex3-1 dexterous hand packs around 33 pressure/tactile sensors per hand across the fingers and palm, capable of sensing pressure roughly in the 10g-2500g range - a useful reference point for what 'production tactile sensing' looks like right now.

@rossi30 I don't think that's quite right, for what it's worth.
Vibration is one of the most underrated sources of noisy IMU and tactile readings - mounting matters as much as sensor quality, and a poorly isolated mount can add more noise than the sensor's own datasheet specs would suggest.
Anyway, good thread - following for more.
