Researchers have introduced the concept of "sensing intelligence," proposing that a metamaterial's physical structure can be optimized to preprocess external stimuli. This approach allows a neural network to train its own physical body, improving the efficiency of signal interpretation. By using differentiable simulation, the body's geometry is optimized to reduce the sensing loss, leading to up to a fivefold increase in accuracy or a significant reduction in the need for electronic sensors.
