Abstract
Inspired by the extensive signal processing capabilities of the human nervous system, neuromorphic artificial sensory systems have emerged as a pivotal technology in advancing brain‐like computing for applications in humanoid robotics, prosthetics, and wearable technologies. These systems mimic the functionalities of the central and peripheral nervous systems through the integration of sensory synaptic devices and neural network algorithms, enabling external stimuli to be converted into actionable electrical signals. This review delves into the intricate relationship between synaptic device technologies and neural network processing algorithms, highlighting their mutual influence on artificial intelligence capabilities. This study explores the latest advancements in artificial synaptic properties triggered by various stimuli, including optical, auditory, mechanical, and chemical inputs, and their subsequent processing through artificial neural networks for applications in image recognition and multimodal pattern recognition. The discussion extends to the emulation of biological perception via artificial synapses and concludes with future perspectives and challenges in neuromorphic system development, emphasizing the need for a deeper understanding of neural network processing to innovate and refine these complex systems.
