We present an event-driven tactile sensing element that encodes both the absolute value of the input force and its variation over time. It is based on the POSFET device and Leaky-Integrate and Fire neurons, connected by a transconductance amplifier; the proposed circuit exploits the advantages of the POSFET device, such as high integration...

Vergence control and tracking allow a robot to maintain an accurate estimate of a dynamic object three dimensions, improving depth estimation at the fixation point. Brain-inspired implementations of vergence control are based on models of complex binocular cells of the visual cortex sensitive to disparity. The energy of cells activation...

: Objective.We analyze and interpret arm and forearm muscle activity in relation with the kinematics of hand pre-shaping during reaching and grasping from the perspective of human synergistic motor control.Approach.Ten subjects performed six tasks involving reaching, grasping and object manipulation. We recorded electromyographic (EMG) signals...

Hearing can be considered as one of the most important senses since it plays a key role in the audiovisual learning process. While a lot of effort has been made for achieving good results from the traditional approach of auditory perception, new trends such as neuromorphic computing are showing promising achievements in the implementation of...
