Some animals, such as the chameleon and cephalopod, have remarkable capability to change their skin colour. This unique characteristic has long inspired scientists develop materials devices mimic a function. However, it requires complex integration of stretchability, colour-changing tactile sensing. Here we show an all-solution processed chameleon-inspired stretchable electronic (e-skin), in which e-skin colour can easily be controlled through varying applied pressure along with duration. As...

Sensing the force digitally Our skin provides us with a flexible waterproof barrier, but it also contains sensor array that feels world around us. This feedback and helps to avoid hot object or increase strength of our grip on an may be slipping away. Tee et al. describe approach simulate mechanoreceptors human skin, using pressure-sensitive foils printed ring oscillators (see Perspective by Anikeeva Koppes). The successfully converted pressure into digital response in range comparable found...

Innovations in CMOS radar has paved way for new functions like gesture-based human-machine interaction using consumer and automotive electronics. Single chip radars which integrate the RF front-end digital processing logic are fit such applications due to their cost form factor but constrained angular resolution, memory, power. In this paper, we propose low complexity radar-based multi-gesture classification solution overcomes these constraints achieve 96% accuracy 6 gestures generalized...

Abstract H 2 O is a key oxidant in mammalian biology and pleiotropic signaling molecule at the physiological level, its excessive accumulation conjunction with decreased cellular reduction capacity often found to be common pathological marker. Here, we present red fluorescent Genetically Encoded Indicator (GEHI) allowing versatile optogenetic dissection of redox biology. Our new GEHI, oROS-HT, chemigenetic sensor utilizing HaloTag Janelia Fluor (JF) rhodamine dye as reporters. We developed...

A new class of sensors, entirely made from biodegradable materials, biocompatible with the human body and safe for environment, is emerging. In this work, we present a fully pressure sensor, where key layer dielectric that consists regularly microstructured thin rubber. This compressible makes device highly sensitive to pressure. An in vitro biodegradation study performed investigate viscoelastic behavior PGS upon degradation. It shown has very limited hysteresis viscoelasticity behavior, no...
