Abstract: Tactile sensing devices, systems, and methods to image a target tissue location are disclosed. When force is applied onto a tissue surface using the tactile sensing device, sensors of a sensor array output voltage signals to a computing device and display screen operatively connected to the sensor array. The sensor array relays its output voltage signals to the computing device, the computing device processes the output voltage signals, and an image of the output voltage signals is visualized on the display screen to help identify a target tissue insertion site.
