报告内容：Neuromorphic electronics has received extensive attention due to its potential applications in neuromorphic computing, neuro-prosthetics, and human-machine interface. Since the development of the first flexible artificial sensory nerve in 2018 (Figure 1), a number of biomimetic systems that emulate the working mechanisms of peripheral nerves have been developed, using the integration of sensors, neuromorphic devices and actuators. These systems are potentially applicable in restoring human “feelings”, controlling neuro-prosthetics, and creating compatible human-machine interface. The presenter will demonstrate the recent progress in his research group in developing such artificial sensory and motor nerves, as well as synaptic devices that works for information transmission and processing in these systems.
