A new artificial skin unveiled at CES 2026 could give robots human-like sensitivity, helping machines better understand ...

Human skin transmits sensory information as electrical pulses, or spikes, that encode signals related to pressure and pain. NRE-skin mimics this biological process by converting pressure ...

Robots have made clear advances in vision, mobility, and sound recognition, yet their ability to sense touch with any real ...

The nervous system does an astonishing job of tracking sensory information, and does so using signals that would drive many computer scientists insane: a noisy stream of activity spikes that may be ...

According to the researchers, their new neuromorphic robotic e-skin is based on a structure inspired by the human nervous ...

Until now, artificial gels have either managed to replicate high stiffness or natural skin's self-healing properties, but not both. Now, a team of researchers has developed a hydrogel with a unique ...

This phone cover might give some people the heebie-jeebies. It's made from artificial skin and it's not the only one. Researchers say they have also developed faux skin prototypes for other devices.

Growing cells in the laboratory is an art that humans have mastered decades ago. Recreating entire three-dimensional tissues is much more challenging. Empa researchers are developing a new ...
