We are able to visualize‚ feel‚ smell‚ and hear the world around us due to a system called the sensory system. All around the surface of our body we have detectors that are known as receptors. These receptors‚ in the form of cells‚ are specialized to capture specific forms of energy- whether heat‚ light‚ chemical‚ or mechanical (1). The environmental cues that are detected by our receptors on the surface of our body are then transformed into electrical signals‚ or nerve impulses‚ that can be sent

On the right in Figure 27 shown the power density spectral of noise measurements at low frequencies‚ from 1 Hz to 14 Hz and used commercial resistance of 1 kΩ to compare 2 different current generators. The curves in red color correspond KEITHLEY 2400 series and the curves in black color correspond to the ADRET current generator. The KEITHLEY generator slightly lower noise than ADRET generator. However‚ theoretically the differential measure with correct polarization can suppress this kind of noise
