Skin VR as new advanced wireless haptic interface system

Enhancing the virtual experience with the touch sensation has become a hot topic, but today’s haptic devices remain typically bulky and tangled with wires. A team led by the City University of Hong Kong (CityU) researchers recently developed an advanced wireless haptic interface system, called WeTac, worn on the hand, which has soft, ultrathin soft features, and Read more about Skin VR as new advanced wireless haptic interface system[…]

Diamond: “Mount Everest” of electronic materials

Diamond is the hardest material in nature. But out of many expectations, it also has great potential as an excellent electronic material. A joint research team led by City University of Hong Kong (CityU) has demonstrated for the first time the large, uniform tensile elastic straining of microfabricated diamond arrays through the nanomechanical approach. Their findings have Read more about Diamond: “Mount Everest” of electronic materials[…]

Enhancing energy efficiency of artificial synapses

A joint research led by City University of Hong Kong (CityU) has built an ultralow-power consumption artificial visual system to mimic the human brain, which successfully performed data-intensive cognitive tasks. Their experiment results could provide a promising device system for the next generation of artificial intelligence (AI) applications. The research team is led by Professor Johnny Chung-yin Ho, Read more about Enhancing energy efficiency of artificial synapses[…]
