We propose an optical tactile sensor using self-healing materials. The proposed tactile sensor consists of a structure that includes a diode, a phototransistor, and an optical waveguide made from self-healing materials. This design offers the advantage of being less susceptible to electromagnetic noise compared to traditional tactile sensors based on electrical detection principles. The sensor estimates the applied force by detecting changes in the total internal reflection caused by deformation due to contact force. In this study, we first established a fabrication method for the optical waveguide-based tactile sensor using self-healing materials. Subsequently, we measured the sensor output when a static load was applied to the fabricated tactile sensor and evaluated its characteristics. The results confirmed that the sensor output decreases in response to the applied load.
