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 ... >>

Viber Out, an alternative to Skype 14.12.2013

Viber Media announced the full-scale global launch of the Viber Out service, which allows you to make calls to any mobile and landline numbers from the Viber application on your smartphone, tablet or computer at reduced rates. The launch coincided with the release of Viber 4.1 for iPhone and Android.

Viber Out is an analogue of Skype Out and, according to the developers of the service, offers lower rates compared to both Skype Out and other similar services.

For example, a 3-minute call to a mobile or landline phone in the US and Canada is 107% more expensive for Skype Out users, and 389% more expensive for UK mobile phones compared to Viber Out.

Unlike other similar services, Viber Out displays the real number of the subscriber who is making the call, so the user receiving the call knows who is calling him. Also, on the PC app, Viber Out displays your phone's address book, so there's no need to memorize phone numbers or dial them manually on your computer.

"Viber Out offers our millions of users a new way to use Viber and connects them to anyone, anytime," said Talmon Marco, CEO of Viber. Viber is currently used by over 200 million people worldwide.
