Greenhouse experiments revealed that P. australis acclimatizes to specific water depths with phenotypic plasticity. These phenotypic responses act to increase growth at specific water depths but may result in decreased tolerance to changed water depth. Oxygen nee
This paper describes a robotic hand, LUCS Haptic Hand I, that has been built as a first step in a project aiming at the study haptic perception. Grasping tests with the hand were done with different objects, and the signal patterns from the sensors were studied and analyzed. The results suggest that LUCS Haptic Hand I provides signal patterns that are possible to categorize. Certain higher-level p
