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

The startle response, often recorded as an eye-blink reflex, is a defensive measure believed to reflect emotional processing. Patients with alcohol use disorders (AUDs) show abnormal startle-reflex ...

Researchers in China built a neuromorphic robotic skin that lets humanoid robots sense pain and react instantly to harm.

The startle response is a sudden, reflex-like response to an unexpected stimulus, such as a loud noise or bright light. It is an unlearned and largely unconscious defense mechanism shared by animals ...

Robot skin that senses touch and pain — and triggers instant reflexes — makes robots more like humans. It probably also makes ...
