Journal Article
Gray, S., Carmichael, L., Barton, H., Mytton, J., Lease, H., & Joynt, J. (2011). The effectiveness of health appraisal processes currently in addressing health and wellbeing during spatial plan appraisal: A systematic review. BMC Public Health, 11(11), 889. https://doi.org/10.1186/1471-2458-11-889

Background: Spatial planning affects the built environment, which in turn has the potential to have a significant impact on health, for good or ill. One way of ensuring that spatial plans take due account of health is through the inclusion of health...

Biomimetic vibrissal sensing for robots (2011)
Journal Article
Charles Sullivan, J., Pearson, M., Mitchinson, B., Sullivan, J. C., Pipe, A. G., & Prescott, T. J. (2011). Biomimetic vibrissal sensing for robots. Philosophical Transactions B: Biological Sciences, 366(1581), 3085-3096. https://doi.org/10.1098/rstb.2011.0164

Active vibrissal touch can be used to replace or to supplement sensory systems such as computer vision and, therefore, improve the sensory capacity of mobile robots. This paper describes how arrays of whisker-like touch sensors have been incorporated... Read More about Biomimetic vibrissal sensing for robots.
