a Schematic of intelligent fiber heating system. The key fiber units are artificial synapse, artificial neuron and resistor. b Operation mechanism of the intelligent warm fiber. c Photograph of the fiber-based intelligent heating memristors. Scale bar, 1 cm. d Current-time curve of artificial synaptic device, which could inspire the connected artificial neuron. After a period of 60 s, the device was initialized for the next cycle. e Current-time curve of artificial neuron based on the signal of synaptic device. f Heating operations of fiber-based resistor inspired by the signal of memristive neuron. g Calculated heating time corresponding to the plot in panel f. h Heating time curve of resistor for real heating operation. i Released resistor heat versus heating time. The period of heating resistor was 3000 s.
