Description/Abstract

Tactile sensation in human skin is performed by specialized cells called mechanoreceptors. Factors such as surgical procedures, skin burns, injury, and nerve damage may lead to impaired sensation. For these reasons, various methods and approaches are developed to revive tactile sensation. In this poster, a step-by-step procedure to synthesize nanofibers for the development of artificial tactile sensor is presented.
