The Sense of Self: Reflected Self-Appraisal and Social Comparison

55.6K
According to Charles Cooley, we base our image on what we think other people see (Cooley 1902). We imagine how we must appear to others, then react to this speculation. We don certain clothes, prepare our hair in a particular manner, wear makeup, use cologne, and the like—all with the notion that our presentation of ourselves is going to affect how others perceive us. We expect a certain reaction, and, if lucky, we get the one we desire and feel good about it. But more than that, Cooley...

Autonomic Nervous System

The autonomic nervous system (ANS) is a critical component of the peripheral nervous system, primarily responsible for regulating involuntary bodily functions and maintaining homeostasis. It functions in tandem with the central nervous system (CNS) to seamlessly coordinate various physiological processes without the need for conscious control.
The ANS comprises two main divisions: the sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions. These divisions function antagonistically to maintain a dynamic...

Vapor Pressure

When a liquid vaporizes in a closed container, gas molecules cannot escape. As these gas phase molecules move randomly about, they will occasionally collide with the surface of the condensed phase, and in some cases, these collisions will result in the molecules re-entering the condensed phase. The change from the gas phase to the liquid is called condensation. When the rate of condensation becomes equal to the rate of vaporization, neither the amount of the liquid nor the amount of the vapor...

Autonomic Nervous System: Overview

The human nervous system is divided into two main parts: the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS). The CNS is composed of the brain and spinal cord, while the PNS contains nerve cells, clusters of nerve cells, and the sensory receptors that are outside the CNS. The PNS has two types of nerve cells: sensory (afferent) and motor (efferent). Sensory cells send signals to the CNS from receptors, and motor cells carry signals from the CNS to organs, muscles, and...

Disorders of the Autonomic Nervous System

1.4K
The autonomic nervous system (ANS) is an intricate network of nerves that controls functions such as the regulation of heart rate, digestion, and blood pressure regulation. When this system malfunctions, it can lead to various disorders that affect multiple bodily functions. One common feature of many autonomic disorders is the involvement of smooth blood vessels, which play a crucial role in regulating blood flow throughout the body.
Raynaud's disease, also known as Raynaud's...

Area of Science:

  • Interfacial Electrochemistry
  • Soft Robotics
  • Sensor Technology

Background:

  • Tactile sensing is crucial for underwater object manipulation.
  • Conventional electronic sensors face waterproofing and hydrostatic pressure challenges.
  • Existing sensors often require external power and encapsulation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce a self-powered tactile sensing method for underwater applications.
  • To overcome limitations of conventional electronic sensors in harsh aquatic environments.
  • To demonstrate a robust and minimalist sensing principle.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized dynamic modulation of the electric double layer (EDL) at liquid-electrode interfaces.
  • Employed an open-ended rubber tube filled with seawater and two embedded electrodes.
  • Generated electric potential through fluid motion-induced EDL perturbation upon deformation.

Main Results:

  • The sensor is self-powered, requiring no external encapsulation or supply.
  • Signal characteristics (magnitude, polarity) correlate with pressure, location, and ionic concentration.
  • Achieved high sensitivity (0.07 V/kPa), fast response (0.02 s), and pressure resilience (<10.7% attenuation at 1 MPa).

Conclusions:

  • Established a robust, minimalist sensing principle based on nanoscale interfacial electrochemistry.
  • Validated practical feasibility through autonomous underwater grasping demonstrations.
  • Proposed a universal strategy for self-powered tactile, soft robotic, and environmental sensing.
