Abstract

In the past century, thorough biological studies on insects allowed a better understanding of how their different acoustic sensory systems work [1]. One of these fascinating structures, the hair shaped Trichoid Sensilla (TS), also known as trichobothria, allows insects to sense and react to airflow and low frequency, near field sound [2]. Moreover, it is speculated that from this structure other sensing mechanisms (e.g., acceleration, temperature, etc.) are derived [3-5].
