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 pool rescue robot
07.03.2020
Israeli AI startup Coral Detection Systems has created the Manta 3000, a slender robot with a self-contained camera that scans swimming pools and recognizes drowning people.
Swimming pool drowning is the third leading cause of death from unintentional injury. More than 320 people drown in swimming pools every year. The company believes that the new device will help save thousands of lives.
The Manta 3000 is essentially a fully autonomous pool scanner that monitors a 10 by 10 meter area with an underwater camera connected to a computer vision system linked to artificial intelligence.
AI notices people entering the pool, and follows them, while distinguishing who is who, remembering and recognizing faces. As people enter and exit the pool, the Manta 3000 makes notes accordingly. If a person dives under water and does not emerge for more than 15 seconds, the robot emits an alarm signal. If a person does not emerge, then an alarm is activated.
This allows people around to quickly respond to an accident and save a drowning person as quickly as possible. Drowning happens quickly, and delay is fraught with brain injury.
Once installed, the robot does not need human assistance: it is always on and uses solar energy to operate. In addition, it can run on a backup battery. That is, you do not need to turn it on or install it every time you use the pool: it just works.
The price of the novelty is 2500 USD.
