As one of the core parts of the Internet-of-things (IOTs), multimodal sensors have exhibited great advantages in fields such as human-machine interaction, electronic skin, and environmental monitoring. However, current multimodal sensors substantially introduce a bloated equipment architecture and a complicated decoupling mechanism. In this work we propose a multimodal fusion sensing platform based on a power-dependent piecewise linear decoupling mechanism, allowing four parameters to be perceived and decoded from the passive wireless single component, which greatly broadens the configurable freedom of a sensor in the IOT. A systematic model is employed to analyze the linear sensing properties and ensure the feasibility of the scheme. The excitation power dependence provides an efficient and quantitative linear decoupling strategy of unidentified combinations for multiple stimuli. As a validation for a wearable device such as electronic skin (e-skin), the functionalized sensing film polyaniline/graphene oxide (PANI/GO) is served to synchronously monitor humidity, temperature, ultraviolet, and proximity through the mapping in resonant frequency (). Compared with the output errors of ∼18.00%, ∼17.50%, ∼15.00%, and ∼20.00%, the maximum experimental errors of temperature, humidity, ultraviolet, and proximity are 5.70%, 4.00%, 5.00%, and 8.30% after decoupling, respectively. In general, the developed single-component multimodal fusion sensing platform offers a strategic advantage for a miniaturization, passive wireless, and inexpensive (less than $1) signal identification system with a facile circuit layout.

In the Ouija board phenomenon, the lack of agency experienced by the players leads them to attribute the movement of the planchette to spirits. The aim of this study was to investigate the neural and cognitive mechanisms involved in generating the sense of agency in such a joint action context. Two players (a participant and a confederate) jointly moved a Ouija board style planchette containing a wireless mouse.

Peripheral nerve repair (PNR) is a major healthcare challenge due to the limited regenerative capacity of the nervous system, often leading to severe functional impairments. While nerve autografts are the gold standard, their implications are constrained by issues such as donor site morbidity and limited availability, necessitating innovative alternatives like nerve guidance conduits (NGCs). However, the inherently slow nerve growth rate (∼1 mm/day) and prolonged neuroinflammation, delay recovery even with the use of passive (no-conductive) NGCs, resulting in muscle atrophy and loss of locomotor function.

Fixed-point thickness measurement is commonly used in corrosion detection within petrochemical enterprises, but it suffers from low detection efficiency for localized thinning, limitations regarding measurement locations, and high equipment costs due to insulation and cooling layers. To address these challenges, this paper introduces a wireless passive ultrasonic thickness measurement technique based on a pulse compression algorithm. The research methodology encompassed the development of mathematical and circuit models for single coil and wireless energy transmission, the proposal of a three-terminal wireless energy mutual coupling system, and the establishment of a finite element model simulating the ultrasonic body wave thickness measurement and wireless energy transmission system.
