New electronic artificial skin that reacts to pain just like real skin – Tech Explorist
Scientists have developed electronic artificial skin that reacts to pain just like real skin, opening the way to better prosthetics, smarter robotics and non-invasive alternatives to skin grafts.
A team at RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia, has developed electronic artificial skin that reacts to pain just like real skin. Currently, in the prototype phase, this artificial skin mimics the body’s near-instant feedback response and can respond to painful sensations with the same lighting speed that nerve signals travel to the brain.
As predicted by scientists, the device could pave the way towards better prosthetics, smarter robotics, and non-invasive alternatives to skin grafts. In o…
