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 Super chocolate 15.05.2018 20-30 percent of the cocoa crop is eradicated by disease every year. Scientists at the University of Pennsylvania, using the CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing method, tried to create a tree that is resistant to disease and able to continuously supply cocoa beans to the candy factory conveyor. "Fungal disease outbreaks in West Africa could wipe out a farm's entire cocoa crop," explains geneticist Andrew Fister. CRISPR-Cas9 - edits the genome without modifying DNA. This method is also called "molecular scissors". It consists in the fact that the Cas9 DNA enzyme is placed in a precisely defined place in the chain. As a result, certain traits can be disabled or enhanced. The team isolated a cocoa tree gene known as TcNPR3 that suppresses disease resistance. It was he who was tried to be turned off with the help of "molecular scissors". The scientists tested the results of editing in practice. An experiment on growing trees with enhanced immunity gave positive results.
