A robotic sensory system with high spatiotemporal resolution for texture recognition. [PDF]
Nat Commun, 2023 Humans can gently slide a finger on the surface of an object and identify it by capturing both static pressure and high-frequency vibrations. Although modern robots integrated with flexible sensors can precisely detect pressure, shear force, and strain ...

Displacement-pressure biparametrically regulated softness sensory system for intraocular pressure monitoring. [PDF]
Natl Sci RevHigh intraocular pressure (IOP) is one of the high-risk pathogenic factors of glaucoma. Existing methods of IOP measurement are based on the direct interaction with the cornea. Commercial ophthalmic tonometers based on snapshot measurements are expensive,

Sensory system plasticity in a visually specialized, nocturnal spider. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2017 The interplay between an animal’s environmental niche and its behavior can influence the evolutionary form and function of its sensory systems. While intraspecific variation in sensory systems has been documented across distant taxa, fewer studies have ...

KCNQ potassium channels in sensory system and neural circuits. [PDF]
Acta Pharmacol Sin, 2016 M channels, an important regulator of neural excitability, are composed of four subunits of the Kv7 (KCNQ) K+ channel family. M channels were named as such because their activity was suppressed by stimulation of muscarinic acetylcholine receptors.
