Versatile Mechanosensing Tool for Perception and Response
Traditional cilia-based sensors are associated with limitations in scaling and sensitivity thresholds, and they require complex fabrication due to their bulky magnetosensing layers.
Researchers at Virginia Commonwealth University have introduced a novel artificial cilia sensor array that detects mechanical stimuli through inter-cilia electrical contact, offering versatile and scalable sensing solutions.
