Self-Spiking Linear Neuromorphic Soft Pressure Sensor for Underwater Sensing Applications.

ABSTRACT: Many aquatic vertebrates rely on neuromasts in their lateral line system to detect water vibrations and pressure gradients. These neuromasts contain specialized hair cells that function as mechanoreceptors, converting mechanical stimuli into electric signals for brain processing. While neuromorphic sensors can emulate biologic sensory systems, they are facing significant challenges in underwater stability and complex data processing. Here, a bioinspired neuromorphic soft pressure sensor designed for stable underwater performance and simplified signal processing is proposed. This is achieved through a novel integration of micro-magnetic spheres, a microfluidic channel, and alternating coil connections. This sensor exhibits self-spiking behavior upon applied force with high linearity (R
