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.

Art originated in Africa 16.10.2002

Both anthropology and archeology originated in Europe. Perhaps that is why scientists have been looking for the origins of mankind for a long time on the European continent.

The search for human ancestors in Africa began only in the 20s of the last century and turned out to be very successful. It is now generally accepted that Homo sapiens appeared precisely in Africa, from where he settled on other continents. But for a long time there was consolation for Europeans: the most ancient examples of art were found in Europe - rock art in the caves of France and Spain, about 35 thousand years old.

Now, however, South African archaeologist Chris Henshilwood has shown that art actually originated over 70 years ago in Africa. In Blombos Cave on the ocean near Cape Town, Henshilwood and his collaborators found pieces of ocher, a red mineral used by primitive man for painting. But the main find is two stones with rather complex geometric patterns.

Of course, the realistic rock art of Europe is much more impressive, but these stones, according to various methods of physical dating, are from 70 to 80 thousand years old. This is the origin of our culture.
