I really like that, at least for Andorians: "protrusions" from {jeq} "protrude from".

  That is not my dagger protruding from your midsection. FTG

  The object of this verb would be the thing from which something
  else (the subject) protrudes. Thus, {chor jeq taj} means "a knife
  protrudes from a belly". I suppose this is a handy word to know
  if you're vacationing on {Qo'noS}.  [Okrand to Qermaq, st.k 6/97]

"forehead sensors" - why did you choose the regionalism {jargh}?  Also, do we really know what function Andorian antennae perform?
