Afferent discharges. (A) Displacement and afferent activity recordings from DELTA vibrissa acquired during a sweep on sandpaper P600. The displacement recordings were acquired by using a custom-made photoresistive sensor. (B) Afferent discharges recorded when the vibrissa was sweeping: the air (control), sandpaper P1200, sandpaper P1000, sandpaper P600, sandpaper P200 and sandpaper P180. All recordings show a single vibrissa sweeping on each surface at slip-resistance level 1. (C) Ten afferent activity recordings obtained in different experimental conditions at slip-resistance level 1. (D) Idem to C at slip-resistance level 2.
