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 ... >>

Mercedes electric cars with wireless charging 28.09.2014

A wireless charging system for electric and hybrid Mercedes vehicles could be available within two years.

The first model equipped with this option will most likely be the S500 Plug-in hybrid sedan. Just on his example, a demonstration of technology to journalists has already been carried out.

The system includes a charging pad that connects to household power and is installed on the floor of the garage, as well as panels under the engine compartment of the car. The energy to charge the car's batteries is transferred by electromagnetic induction. It takes just 2 hours to fully charge the S-Class Hybrid battery wirelessly.

The driver who wants to activate the process of charging the batteries needs to position his car in the parking lot correctly. To facilitate this task, the sedan was equipped with a special assistance system.

The parking space is shown on the display with two yellow stripes at the edges, between which the car must be parked. Once the machine is in the correct position, the stripes will change color to green to indicate that the batteries are being charged.

Representatives of Mercedes-Benz say that the system is completely safe and is not capable of harming either people or pets.

Mercedes is working on inductive wireless charging technology with BMW to come up with a common standard. Thanks to this, in a garage equipped with a new system, it will be possible to charge the batteries of both the Mercedes B-Class Electric Drive and the BMW i3.
