Correlations among Firing Rates of Tactile, Thermal, Gustatory, Olfactory, and Auditory Sensations Mimicked by Artificial Hybrid Fluid (HF) Rubber Mechanoreceptors

In order to advance the development of sensors fabricated with monofunctional sensation systems capable a versatile response tactile, thermal, gustatory, olfactory, and auditory sensations, mechanoreceptors as single platform an electric circuit require investigation. addition, it is essential resolve complicated structure sensor. realize platform, our proposed hybrid fluid (HF) rubber free nerve endings, Merkel cells, Krause end bulbs, Meissner corpuscles, Ruffini Pacinian corpuscles mimicking bio-inspired five senses are useful enough facilitate fabrication process for resolution structure. This study used electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) elucidate intrinsic physical mechanisms firing rate such slow adaption (SA) fast (FA), which were induced from involved capacitance, inductance, reactance, etc. HF mechanoreceptors. relations among rates various sensations clarified. The in thermal opposite that tactile sensation. gustation, olfaction, at frequencies less than 1 kHz have same present findings not only field neurophysiology, research biochemical reactions neurons brain perceptions stimuli, but also sensors, salient developments sensations.
