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. ... >>

Smart tourniquet 03.10.2012

Scientists have developed a "smart" iTK hemostatic tourniquet for the US Army, which not only stops bleeding, but also saves lives.

The iTK is a compact mobile phone-sized device with a small pump and an inflatable bag. iTK's built-in computer takes medical indications and automatically loosens or tightens the tourniquet. Due to this, blood loss is minimized when a limb is injured, but most importantly, the “smart” tourniquet does not allow excessive compression, which can lead to tissue death and amputation of the limb.

It is usually the responsibility of the medic to watch the tourniquet, but there are often many wounded on the battlefield who need emergency care. In addition, often the transport of the wounded takes place under the supervision of another soldier or without any control at all. Thanks to iTK, you can not be afraid that an hour after applying a tourniquet that is too tight, a wounded soldier will lose his arm.

During the decade of the Iraqi and Afghan wars, many devices were invented that significantly reduced combat losses. The greatest advances have been made in the fight against heavy bleeding, which for thousands of years was the main cause of death on the battlefield. In recent years, the US military has tried several generations of bandages and granular substances that quickly clot blood and stop even the most severe bleeding.

The effectiveness of new technologies for emergency medical care is very high: they were able to stop 95% of bleeding, especially in places where it is impossible to apply a tourniquet. In the first 2 years alone, more than 250 thousand high-tech bandages were used in the US Army. New technologies have reduced bleeding-related deaths by more than 75%. Largely due to this, the losses of American troops decreased to a third of the losses during the Vietnam War. After a few years of testing, the iTK device will also begin to enter the troops.
