https://t.co/xWOS4xVNwc starts tomorrow... and is completely free! We are super excited for the main event livestream: https://t.co/xWOS4xVNwc (you can watch & ask questions to speakers directly via our homepage) #haptics community see you tomorrow! 1/7

This year, @ieeehaptics is offering a new 🧙‍♀️Mentoring Forum🧙 as an opportunity for students and post-docs to connect with early-career and senior mentors and better connect with the #haptics community. Submit by Feb 21!

Presented by @ucsantabarbara’s Mengjia Zhu, Shantonu Biswas, @stejara_iulia, Nikolas Kastor, Elliot Wright Hawkes, and @YonVisell, “Soft, Wearable #Robotics and #Haptics” reviews emerging advances in soft #robots, and discusses important #design considerations. #wearables

Using fuel synthesis from atmo CO2 and sequestration of CO2 exhaust prods may be possible to realize net negative CO2 emissions internal combustion engines that are greener than EV or hybrid? Just heard about such options now. Feel free to learn me

Our new Nature Materials paper with Hsiao (NCSU) and Santos (UCLA) labs describes friction of wet, textured elastomers felt with human and robot fingers.

In studying the biomechanics of the human hand, @UCSBengineering's Yon Visell and colleagues have found that far from being a simple sensing material, the skin can also aid the processing of tactile information, helping us sense the world around us.

On this week’s @ScienceMagazine podcast: How countries may recover from coronavirus w @kakape, lessons from an ancient drought w @lizziewade, and wave propagation in our hands w @yonvisell https://t.co/IfrJQHnveU

Excited to share our new paper in Science Advances! In it, we show how dynamic touch excites biomechanical waves in the skin that pre-neuronally transform - and compress - tactile information. https://t.co/pyFFwswJHr

Surely only a matter of time before research investment in mathematics at all institutions explodes? Limitless possibilities. (Except where the limit exists.)

Celebrating the power & innovation of #NSF is @YonVisell discussing his research on haptics & robotics @ucsantabarbara @UCSBengineering @SenFeinstein @SenKamalaHarris @HouseScience @RepCarbajal #UCinDC

Yon Visell (@YonVisell) and Shantonu Biswas reviewed the emerging materials #technologies for the sense of #touch. Read more: https://t.co/8wpv0N8sSo #Haptics #Tactile #materials @ucsantabarbara @UCSBengineering

Mon February 11 on #UnknownTerritoriesRadio @KCSB we are speaking with special guests Barbara Imhof (Liquifer Systems Group) and Marko Pelham (@MATUCSB). We will discuss many topics around living architecture, habitats for extreme environments and extra-intra space. @YonVisell

A few hours in New Orleans already welcoming, friendly and offering glimpses of its many flavors...

Avocado toast on the cover of science! Surely Santa Barbara avocados?

Our new paper on touch suggests that tactile mechanics make it difficult to discern delicate details during slow scanning

Highlight of Nature this month is ... advertising! In case you were under the archaic illusion that new breakthrough would be considered for the cover...
