  • Real-time quantitative characterization of ion channel activities for automated control of a lipid bilayer system

    Ogishi K., Osaki T., Mimura H., Hashimoto I., Morimoto Y., Miki N., Takeuchi S.

    Biosensors and Bioelectronics （Biosensors and Bioelectronics)  237 2023.10

    Research paper (scientific journal), Accepted,  ISSN  09565663

    　View Summary

    This paper describes a novel signal processing method to characterize the activity of ion channels on a lipid bilayer system in a real-time and quantitative manner. Lipid bilayer systems, which enable single-channel level recordings of ion channel activities against physiological stimuli in vitro, are gaining attention in various research fields. However, the characterization of ion channel activities has heavily relied on time-consuming analyses after recording, and the inability to return the quantitative results in real time has long been a bottleneck to incorporating the system into practical products. Herein, we report a lipid bilayer system that integrates real-time characterization of ion channel activities and real-time response based on the characterization result. Unlike conventional batch processing, an ion channel signal is divided into short segments and processed during the recording. After optimizing the system to maintain the same characterization accuracy as conventional operation, we demonstrated the usability of the system with two applications. One is quantitative control of a robot based on ion channel signals. The velocity of the robot was controlled every second, which was around tens of times faster than the conventional operation, in proportion to the stimulus intensity estimated from changes in ion channel activities. The other is the automation of data collection and characterization of ion channels. By constantly monitoring and maintaining the functionality of a lipid bilayer, our system enabled continuous recording of ion channels over 2 h without human intervention, and the time of manual labor has been reduced from conventional 3 h to 1 min at a minimum. We believe the accelerated characterization and response in the lipid bilayer systems presented in this work will facilitate the transformation of lipid bilayer technology toward a practical level, finally leading to its industrialization.

  • ProtoHand: Solderless Prototyping of Electrical Circuits on a Soft Artificial Hand with Liquid Metal

    Yamaguchi S., Nakano N., Hiraki T., Ishizuka H., Miki N.

    IEEE Sensors Letters （IEEE Sensors Letters)  7 （ 3 ）  2023.03

    Research paper (scientific journal), Last author, Corresponding author, Accepted

    　View Summary

    In this letter, we propose and demonstrate ProtoHand, which is a soft artificial hand that can work as a universal platform for prototyping electrical circuits similar to a breadboard. ProtoHand is made of flexible and transparent polydimethyl siloxane. ProtoHand has multiple channels filled with liquid metal beneath the surface, like the blood vessels of a hand. Electric components, such as resistors and capacitors, can be inserted by piercing into ProtoHand and electrically connected via the conductive liquid metal. Soldering is unnecessary, and the parts can be removed without leakage of the liquid metal; therefore, prototyping of electric circuits can be performed on this soft hand in a reusable manner. ProtoHand will help the design of multifunctional robot hands and could also be an excellent educational tool.

  • Easily Attach/Detach Reattachable EEG Headset with Candle-like Microneedle Electrodes

    Kawana T., Zemba Y., Ichikawa R., Miki N.

    Micromachines （Micromachines)  14 （ 2 ）  2023.02

    Research paper (scientific journal), Last author, Corresponding author, Accepted

    　View Summary

    To expand the applications of the electroencephalogram (EEG), long-term measurement, a short installation time, and little stress on the participants are needed. In this study, we designed, fabricated, and evaluated an EEG headset with three candle-like microneedle electrodes (CMEs). The user is able to detach and reattach the electrodes, enabling long-term measurement with little stress. The design of the CMEs was experimentally determined by considering the skin-to-electrode impedance and user comfort. An EEG was successfully measured from areas with a high hair density without any preparation. The installation time was shorter than 60 s and the electrodes could be detached and reattached. The headset was designed such that the discomfort caused by its ear pads was higher than that caused by the electrodes. In 1 h experiments, the participants did not feel pain and the detachment of the CMEs was found to improve the comfort level of the participants in most cases. A successful demonstration of the long-term measurement of EEGs while watching a whole movie verified that the developed EEG headset with CMEs is applicable for EEG measurement in a variety of applications.

  • Stretchable Strain Sensor with Small but Sufficient Adhesion to Skin

    Nishikawa T., Yamane H., Matsuhisa N., Miki N.

    Sensors （Sensors)  23 （ 4 ）  2023.02

    Research paper (scientific journal), Last author, Corresponding author, Accepted,  ISSN  14248220

    　View Summary

    Stretchable strain sensors that use a liquid metal (eutectic gallium–indium alloy; E-GaIn) and flexible silicone rubber (Ecoflex) as the support and adhesive layers, respectively, are demonstrated. The flexibility of Ecoflex and the deformability of E-GaIn enable the sensors to be stretched by 100%. Ecoflex gel has sufficiently large adhesion force to skin, even though the adhesion force is smaller than that for commercially available adhesives. This enables the sensor to be used for non-invasive monitoring of human motion. The mechanical and electrical properties of the sensor are experimentally evaluated. The effectiveness of the proposed sensors is demonstrated by monitoring joint movements, facial expressions, and respiration.

  • Handshake Feedback in a Haptic Glove Using Pouch Actuators

    Yamaguchi S., Hiraki T., Ishizuka H., Miki N.

    Actuators （Actuators)  12 （ 2 ）  2023.02

    Research paper (scientific journal), Last author, Corresponding author, Accepted

    　View Summary

    In this paper, we propose and demonstrate a haptic device with liquid-pouch motors that can simulate a handshake. Because handshakes involve contact of the palms or soft skin, handshake simulation requires the haptic device to provide pressure onto specific areas of the palm with soft contact. This can be achieved with thermally driven liquid-pouch motors, which inflate and deflate when a low-boiling-point liquid, here Novec™ 7000, evaporates and condenses, respectively. Due to the simplicity of the soft actuator system, this haptic glove is lightweight and conformable. To design the haptic glove, we experimentally investigated the contact region and strength in handshakes, which led to an optimal number, size and position for the liquid-pouch motors. Sensory experiments with human subjects verified that the designed haptic glove successfully simulated handshakes.
