A soft, flexible sensor system created with electrically conductive yarns could help map problematic pressure points in the socket of an amputee's prosthetic limb, researchers report in a new study. A ...

More uses for implantable sensors are being discovered every day. One such capability is pressure detection, including the detection of intra-ocular pressure, helpful for treating glaucoma. Advances ...

Researchers 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. The ...
