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. A study found that men who showed empathy and kindness were more attractive to women compared to men who showed empathy and kindness. ... >>
Random news from the Archive What is healthy for a cat is death for a mosquito
14.01.2002
The common plant catnip (catnip), which attracts cats even more strongly than valerian, turns out to have the opposite effect on mosquitoes.
A few years ago, American entomologists Joel Kote and Chris Peterson showed that cockroaches do not like the smell of catnip. Now they decided to investigate the attitude of mosquitoes to this plant. A group of 20 mosquitoes was placed in a long glass tube, half of which was treated with a 10% solution of nepetapactone, the main ingredient in catnip essential oil. After XNUMX minutes, it turned out that only four mosquitoes remained in the smeared half of the tube with the solution, the rest flew into the clean half.
When the solution was diluted ten times, five mosquitoes could endure its smell, that is, its activity decreased slightly. For comparison, we conducted the same experiment with the best modern synthetic repellent - DEET (dietiptoluamtz). Eight or nine bloodsuckers out of 20 experimental subjects remained in the half of the tube he smeared. If nepetalactone turns out to be harmless to human skin, it can be used to repel mosquitoes.
In the meantime, the discoverers of the unexpected effect intend to patent this remedy. However, it is not clear from the text of the patent application whether the smell of a person protected by a new mosquito repellent will attract cats from all over the area.
