You could, and this is what we did with ReSkin, https://ReSkin.dev https://ReSkin.dev The reason we don't want to do this is that it is difficult to cover all possible characteristics. Say we do single point contact localization, and 3-axis forces prediction. What happens when we have multi-point contact? The calibration has only been used to calibrate/align in a lower dimensional space. This is primarily why not needing calibration and baking this into the hardware is a lot more appealing. The user/designer no longer needs to think about the task and the dimensions of alignment required for that task.
