Refraining from spontaneous face touch is linked to personality traits, reduced memory performance and EEG changes

open access: yesScientific Reports
Spontaneous touches of one’s face (sFST) were suggested to serve cognitive-emotional regulation processes. During the pandemic, refraining from face-touching was recommended, yet, accompanying effects and the influence of personal attributes remain ...

Biomimetic Microfractals Based Flexible Triboelectric Nanogenerators

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A leaf‐skeleton‐based microfractal architecture is integrated with guided CuNW networks and biomimetic triboelectric polymer layers, enabling breathable, flexible, and material‐efficient triboelectric nanogenerators. The resulting system combines enhanced charge generation and charge transport, offering potential for next‐generation self‐powered ...

Virtual Reality Application in Evaluating the Soundscape in Urban Environment: A Systematic Review

open access: yesAcoustics
Urban soundscapes are complex due to the interaction of different sound sources and the influence of structures on sound propagation. Moreover, the dynamic nature of sounds over time and space adds to this complexity.

Visuo-Haptic Exploration for Multimodal Memory

open access: yesFrontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2019
When faced with a novel object, we explore it to understand its shape. This way we combine information coming from different senses, as touch, proprioception and vision, together with the motor information embedded in our motor execution plan.

Structural Power Composites Based on High Mass Loading Zn‐Ion Hybrid Supercapacitors with Metal Mesh Current Collectors and Aramid Nanofiber/Glass Fiber Composite Electrolytes

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A multifunctional structural power composite is developed by integrating high‐mass‐loading Zn‐ion hybrid supercapacitors with metal mesh current collectors and aramid nanofiber‐based composite electrolytes, enabling simultaneous load‐bearing capability and enhanced areal energy storage.

The Effect of Haptic Cues on Motor and Perceptual Based Implicit Sequence Learning

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2014
We introduced haptic cues to the serial reaction time (SRT) sequence learning task alongside the standard visual cues to assess the relative contributions of haptic and visual stimuli to the formation of motor and perceptual memories.

Multisensory Pseudo‐Haptics for Rendering Manual Interactions with Virtual Objects

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, 2023
Recent advances in extended reality (XR) technologies make seeing and hearing virtual objects commonplace, yet strategies for synthesizing haptic interactions with virtual objects continue to be limited.

Haptic Communications

open access: yesProceedings of the IEEE, 2012
Audiovisual communications is at the core of multimedia systems that allow users to interact across distances. It is common understanding that both audio and video are required for high quality interaction. While audiovisual information provides a user with a satisfactory impression of being present in a remote environment, physical interaction and ...

An Electrowetting Pump

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A tubular electrowetting pump moves alternating droplets through a millimeter‐wide channel in discrete, reversible steps, functioning as a fluidic stepper motor. With no moving parts and electrodes insulated from the liquid, it delivers silent, accurate flow. Flexibility allows the pump to be woven directly into textiles for wearable, medical, and soft‐

Upper Limb Movement Assistance Through Model-Based Path Planning and Control of Hybrid FES-Exoskeleton Systems

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering
Hybrid FES-exoskeleton systems can drive users through trajectories that mimic functional upper limb movements with higher accuracy and reduced motor torque compared to either system alone, situating them well as assistive devices.
