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 ... >>

Smartphone repelling mosquitoes 06.10.2017

LG has unveiled a new smartphone, the main feature of which is a built-in ultrasonic mosquito repellent.

The technology is called "Mosquito Away" and uses ultrasound that is inaudible to humans but unbearable to mosquitoes. The repellent is located on the back cover of the smartphone, and if a person is not interested in such a function, the cover can be replaced with a regular one.

Mosquito Away is already used in many of the company's products - air conditioners, washing machines and televisions. At the same time, it is still not entirely clear how effective ultrasound is in repelling insects. So, entomologist Bart Knols, who heads the advisory board of the Dutch Malaria Foundation, believes that there is no scientific confirmation of this.

K7i is a smartphone with a 5-inch screen with a resolution of 854 x 480 and a single-core processor with a frequency of 1,1 GHz. The device has 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB of permanent memory. The smartphone can also work with two SIM-cards. K7i is equipped with 8-megapixel main and 5-megapixel front cameras. The device runs on Android 6.0 Marshmallow and will cost $121.
