"Revolutionary E-Skin Communicates with the Brain and Mimics Human Touch"

Researchers at Stanford University have developed an artificial electronic skin (e-skin) that can convert sensory inputs into electrical signals that the brain can interpret. The e-skin incorporates soft integrated circuits and can detect stimuli similar to natural skin, including pressure, temperature, strain, and chemicals. The e-skin operates at a low voltage and can endure continuous stretching without losing its electrical properties. This advance could facilitate the creation of prosthetic limbs with sensory feedback or advanced medical devices.

Revolutionary E-Skin Mimics Human Touch and Communicates with Brain

Researchers at Stanford University have developed a soft and stretchable e-skin that can convert sensations such as heat and pressure to electrical signals that can be read by electrodes implanted in the human brain. The development holds promise for more natural interaction between AI-based prosthetic limbs and the brain, and for constructing robots that can "feel" human sensations such as pain, pressure, and temperature. The e-skin runs on just 5 volts and can detect stimuli similar to real skin, providing electrical performance comparable to that of poly-silicon transistors.
