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 ... >>

potato battery 05.05.2011

According to UN statistics, almost a third of the world's population does not have access to the electrical network. Engineers from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem have developed a battery consisting of plates of copper and zinc, between which a slice of boiled potato is inserted. Precisely boiled, because fresh potatoes give 10 times less electromotive force.

The fact is that boiling breaks the membranes of potato cells, facilitating the movement of ions. From such a battery, a flashlight on an LED shone for 20 hours, after which I had to change a slice of potatoes. Since potatoes grow almost everywhere, the population of developing countries can at least acquire electric flashlights on this basis.

The cost calculation showed that "potato" electricity would cost $9 per kilowatt-hour, while the same amount of power from common 49-volt AA alkaline batteries costs between $84 and $XNUMX, depending on the manufacturer.
