The biodiscovery studies the texture sensation in “different types of vertebrate limb by investigating touch and potential texture encoding mechanisms in the pectoral fins of fishes”. Through the article, the analysis provides evidence that the receptive field sizes of ifn ray afferents are small and afferents exhibit response properties to tactile […]
“This paper presents a bioinspired landing system for autonomous aerial robots, built on the inspire–abstract–implement design paradigm and an additive manufacturing process for soft thermoplastic materials. This novel landing system consists of 3D printable Sarrus shock absorbers and soft landing pads which are integrated with an one-degree-of-freedom […]
Spark Awards Design Competition
The Spark Awards Competitions is a competition for designers, which UC Berkeley students have participated in. It focuses on eight design categories: product, space, concept pro, cleantech, digital, experience, graphic, health, package, student, and transport/mobility design. Although they have yet to add a category for bio-inspired design, […]
