. Indeed, as the flow bends the graded-height stereovilli, it deflects the cilia, allowing the mechanoreception of the flow stimulus to be transduced as a depolarisation in the membrane, as pictured in Figure 2. The opposing flow pushes the kinocilium towards the stereovilli, restricting their movement

Nature has invented a stunning diversity of sensory systems whose small size and high sensitivity is so far unmatched by man-made devices. Flow sensors based on hairs are located on the
