A new level of automation in neuroscience research

Posted on by Haptic

For scientists listening in on the faint whispers of brain neurons, a first-ever robotic technique for cleaning the tiny devices that record the signals could facilitate a new level of automation in neuroscience research. That could accelerate the gathering of information used to map the functions of brain cells and ultimately provide a better understanding Read more about A new level of automation in neuroscience research[…]

Researchers use passive haptic learning to teach people Morse code

Posted on by Haptic

Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology have developed a system that teaches people Morse code within four hours using a series of vibrations felt near the ear. Participants wearing Google Glass learned it without paying attention to the signals —they played games while feeling the taps and hearing the corresponding letters. After those few Read more about Researchers use passive haptic learning to teach people Morse code[…]
