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. ... >>

Sensor for biometric breath authentication 28.06.2022

Today, a person can be identified by a fingerprint, iris or face, but progress does not stand still, and Japanese scientists offer a new method of authentication. They developed a biometrics system based on a sensor that recognizes people by the composition of the exhaled air. Combined with machine learning technology, this "artificial nose" is nearly 98% accurate.

In the age of digital information, biometrics is an important way to protect valuable data. In addition to the already familiar fingerprints and palms, voices and faces, there are less common options: through the veins on the fingers or electrical brain waves.

"All these methods are based on the physical uniqueness of each individual, but they are not completely reliable. Physical characteristics can be copied or even broken by trauma," explained Chayanut Jirayupat of Kyushu University, one of the researchers. "Recently, a new class of biometric authentication has emerged that uses a unique chemical composition for personal identification".

A team of scientists decided to explore the biometric potential of human breath. In the end, the composition of exhaled substances has already learned to diagnose cancer, diabetes, and even COVID-19. The analysis showed that 28 breath components can be used for authentication, writes EurekAlert.

Based on these data, a 16-channel sensor was created, each of the channels of which identifies its own set of connections. The data is then fed into a machine learning system that analyzes the makeup and develops a profile that is then used to identify the individual.

After testing the system on breath samples from six people, the researchers found an average identification accuracy of 97,8%. This level did not change even when the number of samples grew to 20, and the group consisted of people of different nationalities, sex and age.

Biometric authentication is increasingly replacing traditional passwords. Engineers from the United States have improved the method of establishing the identity of the pattern of finger vessels by adding one more dimension to the two. The new biometrics system is wrong only 1% of the time.
