Scientists with the Bao Research Group at Stanford University have created a new electronic skin that can mimic the sense of touch. The "e-skin," as some refer to it, is detailed in a new study ...

The following is the first part of a series on brain-machine integration and biomechanical solutions to restore function to tissues damaged by disease, trauma, or time. Researchers have developed ...

Inexpensive silicon rubber composites used to make robotic skin host an insulating layer which prevents direct electrical contact, making accurate and repeatable measurements virtually impossible. Low ...

Stanford scientists have developed a soft and stretchable electronic skin that can directly talk to the brain, imitating the sensory feedback of real skin using a strategy that, if improved, could ...

L’Oreal is developing of realistic artificial skin that will be able to “feel,” paving the way for ethical testing of cosmetics and other products without the use of animals. Unveiled at the Viva ...

Sensing a hug from each other via the internet may be a possibility in the near future. A research team recently developed a wireless, soft e-skin that can both detect and deliver the sense of touch, ...

Researchers argue that the problem that has been lurking in the margins of many papers about touch sensors lies in the robotic skin itself. Researchers at Northwestern University and Israel's Tel Aviv ...
