홈페이지논문 초록 (Abstract)
An artificial multisensory device applicable to in-sensor computing is demonstrated with a single-transistor neuron (1T-neuron) for multimodal perception. It simultaneously receives two sensing signals from visual and thermal stimuli. The 1T-neuron transforms these signals into electrical signals in the form of spiking and then fires them for a spiking neural network at the same time. This feature makes it feasible to realize input neurons for multimodal sensing. Visual and thermal sensing is achieved due to the inherent optical and thermal behaviors of the 1T-neuron. To demonstrate a neuromorphic multimodal sensing system with the artificial multisensory 1T-neuron, fingerprint recognition, widely used for biometric security, is implemented. Owing to the simultaneous sensing of heat as well as light, the proposed fingerprint recognition system composed of multisensory 1T-neurons not only identifies a genuine pattern but also judges whether or not it is forged.
