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 ... >>

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.

Random news from the Archive Broadband Internet is an inalienable human right
23.11.2009
From now on, Finland is the first state in the history of mankind, where the right of any citizen to broadband access to the Internet is enshrined at the legislative level.
Starting from July 2010, every inhabitant of the country (and there are only 5,5 million of them) has the right to access the Internet at a speed of 1 Mb/s. In just 5 years - by 2015 - they intend to raise this figure to 100 Mb / s.
Naturally, the law implies some variations, for example, a lower connection speed is allowed if it is made via mobile.
