Thermal sensing device and sensory feedback system and method using such thermal sensing device

Silvestro Micera, Solaiman Shokur, Outman Akouissi, Jonathan Louis Muheim, Francesco Iberite

The present invention concerns a thermal sensing device (1) and a sensory feedback system and method using such thermal sensing device, comprising at least one film (19) of electrically insulating polymer defining a global surface of the thermal sensing de ...

Morphological and Material Programability of a Hall-Effect Based Soft Tactile Sensors

Josephine Anna Eleanor Hughes, Sudong Lee

The different receptors in human skin show not only diversity in the stimuli to which they respond, but also variable sensitivity and directionality. This is often determined by their location or morphology, and can play an important role in filtering or a ...

The mesoglea buffers the physico-chemical microenvironment of photosymbionts in the upside-down jellyfish Cassiopea sp.

Anders Meibom, Niclas Heidelberg Lyndby, Michael Kühl

IntroductionThe jellyfish Cassiopea has a conspicuous lifestyle, positioning itself upside-down on sediments in shallow waters thereby exposing its photosynthetic endosymbionts (Symbiodiniaceae) to light. Several studies have shown how the photosymbionts b ...

Liquid Metal-Based Sensor Skin Enabling Haptic Perception of Softness

Stéphanie Lacour, Ivan Furfaro, Emilio Fernández Lavado, Haotian Chen

Haptic perception of softness is a unique feature of the human skin that relies on the concurrent measurements of the lateral deformation and compression of the skin during object manipulation. This is challenging to implement in robotics because of combin ...

The native oxide skin of liquid metal Ga nanoparticles prevents their rapid coalescence during electrocatalysis

Raffaella Buonsanti, Anna Loiudice, Dragos-Constantin Stoian, Jan Vávra, Valery Okatenko, Laia Castilla Amorós

Liquid metals (LMs) have been used in electrochemistry since the 19th century, but it is only recently that they have emerged as electrocatalysts with unique properties, such as inherent resistance to coke-poisoning, which derives from the dynamic nature o ...

Electronic Skins for Healthcare Monitoring and Smart Prostheses

Stéphanie Lacour, Laurent Mirko Dejace, Haotian Chen

The human skin is a unique organ that embeds multiple functions that no artificial systems can currently replicate. Advances in materials science and engineering are driving the design of electronic skins-large-area sensor arrays that mimic some sensory mo ...

Wearable and Continuous Prediction of Passage of Time Perception for Monitoring Mental Health

David Atienza Alonso, Lara Orlandic, Adriana Arza Valdes

A person’s passage of time perception (POTP) is strongly linked to their mental state and stress response, and can therefore provide an easily quantifiable means of continuous mental health monitoring. In this work, we develop a custom experiment and Machi ...

Rapid Noninvasive Skin Monitoring by Surface Mass Recording and Data Learning

Hubert Girault, Horst Pick, Natalia Gasilova, Andreas Stephan Lesch, Milica Jovic, Tzu-En Lin, Yingdi Zhu

Skin problems are often overlooked due to a lack of robust and patient-friendly monitoring tools. Herein, we report a rapid, noninvasive, and high-throughput analytical chemical methodology, aiming at real-time monitoring of skin conditions and early detec ...

A new paradigm for leprosy diagnosis based on host gene expression

Stewart Cole, Andrej Benjak, Charlotte Avanzi, Philippe Busso, Thyago Leal Calvo

Author summary Despite effective treatment, leprosy is still a significant public health issue in more than 120 countries, with more than 200 000 new cases yearly. The disease is caused mainly by Mycobacterium leprae, a slow-growing bacillus still uncultiv ...
