resistive

The materials are heated through resistive heating, which essentially heats them from the inside out, making the process faster and less energy-intensive.

This proof-of-concept study showed that applying resistive forces about one hip joint and assistive forces about the other with their exoskeleton mimicked the effects of split-belt treadmill training in neurologically intact individuals.

The researchers outline their new hybrid resistive switches in a study published in Nature Electronics.

Known as 'resistive memory switching', this function is created when electrical inputs encounter changes in conductivity, similar to what happens with synapses in our brain.

When a photon strikes a pixel, the current shunted into the resistive heating element warms a small part of the readout wire, creating a tiny hotspot.
