GelSlim 3.0
Note: The MCube Lab at MIT has closed and no longer distributes pre-made sensors by mail upon request. Consider the latest version GelSlim 4.0 at the University of Michigan's MMint Lab for an easier to reproduce version of the sensor.
Quick-Start
Please follow the Hardware Quick Start Guide instructions to build your own sensor. The step-by-step resources found below are in the process of being updated.
