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 ... >>
Petgugu Global cat litter
15.04.2024
Taking care of pets can often be a challenge, especially when it comes to keeping your home clean. A new interesting solution from the Petgugu Global startup has been presented, which will make life easier for cat owners and help them keep their home perfectly clean and tidy. Startup Petgugu Global has unveiled a unique cat toilet that can automatically flush feces, keeping your home clean and fresh. This innovative device is equipped with various smart sensors that monitor your pet's toilet activity and activate to automatically clean after use. The device connects to the sewer system and ensures efficient waste removal without the need for intervention from the owner. Additionally, the toilet has a large flushable storage capacity, making it ideal for multi-cat households. The Petgugu cat litter bowl is designed for use with water-soluble litters and offers a range of additional ... >>
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. ... >>
| Random news from the Archive Life in space causes genetic changes
30.11.2020
Genetic changes may be responsible for many of the pathologies seen in astronauts, including problems with vision and blood flow.
An experiment to study the effect of gravity on DNA was developed by scientists from the University of Exeter (UK). Researchers have found that cells of the nervous system, neurons, are especially strongly affected in space.
Recently, more and more materials have appeared in scientific publications about how a long-term stay in space can be displayed on the human body. This topic has become especially relevant against the backdrop of the long-awaited landing of NASA astronauts on the moon. In addition, in the 2030s, the US space agency plans to organize a flight to Mars, and, according to preliminary estimates, it will last 8 months.
Since the first crew arrived on the ISS in 2000, a lot of research has been done on the station involving worms, fruit flies, mice and humans.
Genetic changes may be responsible for many of the pathologies seen in astronauts, including problems with vision and blood flow. And overcoming pathologies in the first place requires an understanding of the underlying molecular mechanism.
In recent experiments, worms of the species Caenorhabditis elegans were exposed to low gravity using a centrifuge. The researchers recorded the genetic changes after each experiment. It turned out that about 1000 genes have undergone changes due to the presence of worms in low gravity.
Although most genes were only slightly affected by the change in gravity, the metamorphoses in the cells of the nervous system were significant.
