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 ... >>

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.

penguin blood 11.12.2008

Emperor penguins dive deep for fish and can stay underwater for up to 23 minutes.

American ornithologists implanted miniature sensors into the blood vessels of several penguins to measure the oxygen content in the blood. It turned out that after a long stay of a bird under water, it is four times less than the critical level of oxygen at which a person loses consciousness. Many organs of the body can live quite a long time without oxygen, but the brain cannot withstand prolonged oxygen starvation.

How does the penguin carry it? Apparently, the fact is that penguin brain cells contain two special proteins that store oxygen - neuroglobin and cytoglobin. They are also known in mammals, especially diving ones - otters and dolphins.
