商品描述
Electronic skin (e-skin) is an emerging technology that can be applied in the fields of medical prosthetics and robotics: e-skin provides the sense of touch to mechanical systems. This book bridges the gap between existing e-skin technologies and the remarkable capabilities of human tactile perception. It presents end-to-end design strategies for next-generation fully-integrated e-skin systems that mirror essential properties of human skin, such as being multi-modal, multi-scale, and performing local processing. Building on a pragmatic, technology-aware neuromorphic design approach, that draws inspiration from biology without blindly replicating it, the book shows the system-level benefits of event-based approaches through temporal compression of tactile data via spikes, and it explains how spike-based representations support efficient neuromorphic processing with spiking neural networks, relaxing readout design constraints. Two validated e-skin chips, called INTUITIVE and DERMIS, are presented. They form a pathway toward e-skin systems with human-like tactile perception and embedded intelligence, combining high-resolution texture sensing with low-latency, large-area slip detection to bring electronic skin closer to the capabilities of the human skin.

電子皮膚（e-skin）是一項新興技術，可應用於醫療義肢和機器人領域：電子皮膚為機械系統提供觸覺感知。本書彌補了現有電子皮膚技術與人類觸覺感知卓越能力之間的差距。它提出了下一代全整合電子皮膚系統的端到端設計策略，這些系統模仿人類皮膚的基本特性，例如多模態、多尺度以及執行局部處理。本書基於一種務實的、技術意識的神經形態設計方法，從生物學中汲取靈感而不盲目複製，展示了基於事件的方法在系統層面的優勢，通過脈衝對觸覺數據進行時間壓縮，並解釋了基於脈衝的表示如何支持高效的神經形態處理，使用脈衝神經網絡，放寬讀取設計的限制。本書介紹了兩個經過驗證的電子皮膚晶片，稱為 INTUITIVE 和 DERMIS。它們為具有人類般觸覺感知和嵌入式智能的電子皮膚系統鋪平了道路，結合高解析度的紋理感測與低延遲、大範圍的滑動檢測，將電子皮膚的能力更接近於人類皮膚的能力。
作者簡介
Mark Daniel Alea was born in Batangas, Philippines. He obtained his B.Sc. in Computer Engineering and M.Sc. in Electrical Engineering from the University of the Philippines Diliman in 2013 and 2019, respectively. In January 2026, he obtained the Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering at the MICAS group of KU Leuven in Belgium, under the supervision of Prof. Georges Gielen. He was a Marie Sklodowska-Curie Fellow in the INTUITIVE project from 2020 to 2023. As part of his PhD research, he spent time as a visiting scholar at leading institutions such as the University of Glasgow in the United Kingdom, the Fondazione Bruno Kessler in Italy, and BMW's RoboTac Lab in Germany. He played a key role in co-authoring the KU Leuven-C3 DERMIS project proposal, which received funding from the Flemish Industrial Research Fund. Before joining KU Leuven, he was an Analog IC Design Engineer at Analog Devices Philippines from 2016 until 2020, and was a Science Research Specialist on the SmartWire Chip project under the Philippine Department of Science and Technology (DOST). His research interests include event-driven sensor interfaces, neuromorphic circuits, ultra-low-power voltage references, and gate-leakage-based circuits.
Georges G.E. Gielen received the MSc and PhD degrees in Electrical Engineering from the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven (KU Leuven), Belgium, in 1986 and 1990, respectively. Currently, he is Full Professor in the MICAS research division at the Department of Electrical Engineering (ESAT) at KU Leuven. From 2013 until 2017 he served as Vice-Rector for the Group of Sciences, Engineering and Technology. In 2018 he was visiting professor at UC Berkeley and Stanford University. From 2020 to 2024 he served as Chair of the Department of Electrical Engineering (ESAT) at KU Leuven.
His research interests are in the design of analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits, and especially in analog and mixed-signal CAD tools and design automation, including modeling, simulation, optimization and synthesis as well as testing. He has graduated over 55 PhDs so far. He is a frequently invited speaker and serves/served as Distinguished Lecturer of the IEEE Solid-State Circuits Society and the IEEE Circuits and Systems Society. He is coordinator/partner of several academic and industrial research projects in the above fields, including having awarded the ERC Advanced Grant AnalogCreate. He has (co-)authored 14 monograph books and more than 800 publications in edited books, international journals and conference proceedings. He is a 1997 Laureate of the Belgian Royal Academy of Sciences, Literature and Arts in the discipline of Engineering. He is Fellow of the IEEE since 2002, and received the IEEE CAS Mac Van Valkenburg award in 2015, the IEEE CAS Charles Desoer award in 2020, as well as the EDAA Achievement Award in 2021. He is an elected member of the Royal Flemish Academy of Belgium in the class of Technical Sciences, and of the Academia Europaea.
