ABSTRACT
This chapter investigates the application of ultra-thin 2D materials in the internet of things (ITO) technology. Recent progress on the development of artificial bio-inspired systems reinforces the idea of fabrication of humanoid robotic sensory systems by the employment of ultra-thin 2D nanostructures. The memristive characteristics of ultra-thin films facilitated novel applications which can be employed for development of both sensorimotor functionalities and nociceptive characteristics of neuron system. The sensorimotor functionalities are facilitated by the integration of ultra-thin 2D oxide or semiconductor films into the mechanical components of accelerators, where the generated informative signals of memristor and synaptic devices are employed to mimic the mechanical contraction and expansion of human muscle, or used for optical pattern recognition and emulation of human optical visionary system. Several successful cases of the development of sensorimotor devices and nociceptors were reported in this chapter, in which the main receptor and nociceptor components are ultra-thin 2D semiconductor films. Consequently, it was demonstrated that the ultra-thin 2D films of semiconductors have an undeniable potential to be employed as the main semiconductor component in various bio-inspired devices.
