Mechanical Whisker Simulation Could Help Better Understand Human Touch – Science Times
A research team recently developed a new study, a pioneering mechanical whisker simulation inside a follicle to give insight into the sense of touch of mammals.
An interdisciplinary team of Northwestern University researchers has developed in a new study — a pioneering mechanical whisker simulation inside a follicle to give insight into the sense of touch of mammals.
According to a Phys.org article, the base of the whisker, which is accountable for sending touch signals to the brain, is hidden inside the follicle, a deep pocket embedding the whisker within the skin.
Since this whisker’s section is hidden, understanding exactly how whiskers communicate…
