Wearable Haptic Feedback Interfaces for Augmenting Human Touch

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The wearable haptic feedback interfaces enhance user experience in gaming, social media, biomedical instrumentation, and robotics by generating tactile sensations. This review discusses and categorizes current haptic feedback interfaces into force, thermal, and electrotactile stimulation‐based haptic feedback interfaces, elucidating their current ...

Intelligent and Miniaturized Neural Interfaces: An Emerging Era in Neurotechnology [PDF]

2024 IEEE Custom Integrated Circuits Conference (CICC), Denver, CO, USA, 2024, pp. 1-7
Integrating smart algorithms on neural devices presents significant opportunities for various brain disorders. In this paper, we review the latest advancements in the development of three categories of intelligent neural prostheses featuring embedded signal processing on the implantable or wearable device. These include: 1) Neural interfaces for closed-

Biofilm Control by Active Topography with Mucin Coating

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study reports a new antifouling strategy based on a bioinspired design. Mucin coating enhances biofilm control by active topography with beating micron‐sized pillars. Besides the mechanical force of beating pillars, the antibiofilm activities also involve biological factors since mucin coating inhibits swarming motility and c‐di‐GMP synthesis in ...

Augmented reality navigation system for visual prosthesis [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
The visual functions of visual prostheses such as field of view, resolution and dynamic range, seriously restrict the person's ability to navigate in unknown environments. Implanted patients still require constant assistance for navigating from one location to another.

Cardiac prostheses: toward permanent implantation

Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine, 1984
The pneumatically actuated total artificial heart (TAH) can maintain normal physiology in man and in experimental animals for several months with extracorporeal pneumatic actuation through the skin. The ultimate goal is the development of a totally implantable cardiac prosthesis that functions for a minimum of two years. The Cleveland Clinic Foundation’

Tunable Tactile Synapses Enabled by Erasable Doping in Iongel‐Gated Nanotube Network Transistors

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Artificial tactile synaptic sensors are realized by an iongel‐gated single‐walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) transistor with reversible doping characteristics. The device senses and memorizes tactile stimuli and exhibits gate bias‐dependent excitatory or inhibitory synaptic behavior.

Numerical Study of the Wetting Dynamics of Droplet on Laser Textured Surfaces: Beyond Classical Wenzel and Cassie-Baxter Model [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
The classical wetting models, such as the Wenzel and Cassie-Baxter have been extensively used to quantify the wettability of laser-textured surfaces. However, these models do not provide any description of the corresponding droplet dynamics. In this work, we propose a detailed continuum-level modelling to study the wetting dynamics of a water droplet ...

Laser‐Induced Graphene‐Assisted Patterning and Transfer of Silver Nanowires for Ultra‐Conformal Breathable Epidermal Electrodes in Long‐Term Electrophysiological Monitoring

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a novel method using laser‐induced graphene (LIG) to enable high‐yield transfer of silver nanowire (AgNW) networks onto ultra‐low modulus, breathable silicone substrates. This approach creates ultra‐conformal epidermal electrodes (≈50 µm) for long‐term, high‐fidelity electrophysiological monitoring, even in challenging conditions ...

Microbubble‐Controlled Delivery of Biofilm‐Targeting Nanoparticles to Treat MRSA Infection

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Here, an effective strategy using microbubble (MB)‐controlled delivery of biofilm‐targeting nanoparticles (BTNs) for removal and therapy of methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) biofilm infections is introduced. In vivo delivery of MB with BTN is demonstrated to silence key bacterial genes involved in biofilm formation (icaA), bacterial ...

Evaluation of Correlation Between Development of Multiple Cracks in Nonendodontically Treated Tooth and Placement of Dental Implants with Prosthesis

Journal of Pharmacy and Bioallied Sciences
Background: The result of increased occlusal stresses might be fractures in the teeth. It is still unclear how possible risk factors may affect the occurrence of tooth cracks after dental implants with prostheses in nonendodontically restored teeth. Aim:
