Disclosed is a spike spectrum output-type pressure sensor including an electrolyte and a method of manufacturing the same. The pressure includes a first electrode, a pressure sensing unit positioned on the first electrode and including a pattern including an electrolyte, a spacer positioned on the first electrode and configured to partially or fully surround the pressure sensing unit, and a second electrode positioned on the spacer and on the pressure sensing unit and spaced apart from the pressure sensing unit. The pressure sensor of the present invention can provide reliable pressure sensing results even in an environment where noise may occur due to stable signal transmission of a spike spectrum, which is a kind of frequency-based signal.

A technique for electrical detection of a molecule is provided. A fluidic bridge is formed between a nanopipette and a fluid cell, where the molecule is in the nanopipette. A voltage difference is applied between the nanopipette and the fluid cell, where the fluid cell contains an electrolyte solution. Entry of the molecule into the fluidic bridge is determined by detecting a fore pulse. The fluidic bridge between the nanopipette and the fluid cell is broken to form a nanogap. In response to waiting a time interval, the fluidic bridge is reformed between the nanopipette and the fluid cell to close the nanogap. The molecule is determined to exit the nanopipette by detecting an after pulse.

Techniques for forming a nanopore in a lipid bilayer are described herein. In one example, an agitation stimulus level such as an electrical agitation stimulus is applied to a lipid bilayer wherein the agitation stimulus level tends to facilitate the formation of nanopores in the lipid bilayer. In some embodiments, a change in an electrical property of the lipid bilayer resulting from the formation of the nanopore in the lipid bilayer is detected, and a nanopore has formed in the lipid bilayer is determined based on the detected change in the lipid bilayer electrical property.

Lower limb force sensing system includes a sensory insole formed of a plurality of thin film material layers arranged in a stack to form a plurality of sensor cells in a pattern that defines a sensor array. A plurality of perforations defined in the thin film material layers extend substantially around a perimeter of each sensor cell to substantially separate each sensor cell from a remainder of the thin film material layers and form a hinge member which extends from each sensor cell to an interstitial portion of the thin film layers extending between adjacent ones of the sensor cells. The hinge member defines an axis of rotation about which the sensor cell can pivot independently relative to adjacent interstitial portions of the thin film material layers.
