Mechanosensory organs in legs play are crucial receptors in the feedback control of walking and in the detection of substrate-borne vibrations. Stick insects serve as a model for the physiological role of chordotonal organs and campaniform sensilla. This

Synthetic and Bio-Artificial Tactile Sensing: A Review
This paper reviews the state of the art of artificial tactile sensing, with a particular focus on bio-hybrid and fully-biological approaches. To this aim, the study of physiology of the human sense of touch and of the coding mechanisms of tactile ...

Modelling the mechanoreceptor's dynamic behaviour [PDF]
AbstractAll sensory receptors adapt, i.e. they constantly adjust their sensitivity to external stimuli to match the current demands of the natural environment. Electrophysiological responses of sensory receptors from widely different modalities seem to exhibit common features related to adaptation, and these features can be used to examine the ...

MECHANORECEPTORS OF THE RABBIT DUODENUM [PDF]
A preparation is described which allowed the investigation of single‐unit afferent activity in non‐myelinated mesenteric nerves in urethane‐anaesthetized rabbits. Three classes of mechano‐receptors were isolated and were located in the muscularis externa (n = 17), the serosa (n = 5) and the mesentery (n = 2).
