- A novel sensing system for synchronous measurement of pressure and shear for tactile and kinaesthetic systems in neuro-prosthesis is designed to enable proprioceptive feedback. This is part of the £1.44M, EPSRC-funded SenseBack project (EP/M025977/1), which brought together leading researchers from Imperial College, Newcastle, Leeds, Southampton, Essex and Keele universities. The developed sensing system is being applied in several new projects, such as for prosthetic socket interface monitoring for children with limb losses and real-time feedback for effective chest compressions during CPR, leading to the appointment of a KTP associate (Blatchford), a Research Fellow and a PhD studentship.
