Artificial Tactile Sensing Neuron with Tactile Sensing Ability Based on a Chitosan Memristor

Abstract: Owing to the highly parallel network structure of the biological neural network and its triggered processing mode, tactile sensory neurons can realize the perception of external signals and the functions of perception, memory, and data processing by adjusting the synaptic weight. In this paper, a piezoresistive pressure sensor is combined with a memristor to design an artificial tactile sensory neuron. The polyurethane sponge sensor has excellent sensitivity and can convert physical stimuli into electrical signals, and the chitosan‐based memristor has stable bipolar resistive switching characteristics, allowing further information to be memorized and processed. The neuron can respond to tactile stimuli of different degrees, durations, and frequencies; realize potentiation/depression modulation, paired‐pulse facilitation, and spike‐timing‐dependent plasticity; exhibit spike‐rate‐dependent plasticity; and store and erase tactile information through memistor state switching, which has great application potential in biological sensing systems.
