Mosquito Antennae Inspire Passive Sensor That Needs No Power

A mechanical prototype inspired by the intricate structure of mosquito antennae can amplify faint vibrations without any electronics or signal processing. The breakthrough could reshape how microphones, environmental monitors and biomedical devices are built — especially where battery life is limited.
