Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>

The attractiveness of caring men 14.04.2024

The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue. They looked at how women responded to men's emotional responsibility and willingness to help others. The study's findings could change our understanding of what makes men attractive to women. A study conducted by scientists from Monash University leads to new findings about men's attractiveness to women. In the experiment, women were shown photographs of men with brief stories about their behavior in various situations, including their reaction to an encounter with a homeless person. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food.

House powered by algae 17.04.2013

In Hamburg, at the International Building Exhibition, an apartment building is presented that is heated and cooled with green algae. BIQ House is lined with 129 2 cm thick glass bioreactor panels that not only generate energy, but also paint the facades of the building in a pleasant green color. Panels with a total area of about 199 sq. m. are located on the southeast and southwest sides of the building. With the help of microalgae, the house generates biomass and heat, and in summer, green panels shade the rooms from direct sunlight and reduce noise levels.

In sunlight, algae grow and multiply. The resulting biomass is sent as a thick pulp to a specialized bioreactor with enzymes, where it is used to produce biogas suitable for heating and generating electricity. Algae are particularly well suited for this, as they produce 5 times more biomass per hectare than land plants and contain a lot of bio-oil that can be used for energy.

BIQ House is the concept of a fully autonomous home that provides itself with heat and electricity without the use of fossil fuels. With the help of algae panels, the house not only produces biomass (raw material for gas), but also collects heat, which can be sent to a special heat exchanger in the form of an 80 m deep pit filled with saline. Also, the house can be integrated with any other environmentally friendly energy source, including geothermal heat sources, solar panels or windmills.

The construction of the first truly green house cost 3,4 million euros. The house has 15 apartments ranging from 50 to 120 sq. m. This is an environmentally friendly scalable technology that can be used in houses of various sizes: from small country houses to skyscrapers.
