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. ... >>

XNUMXD water vapor screen 18.04.2014

Scientists and engineers at the University of Bristol have developed an original desktop display that uses water mist instead of a screen. The display is capable of displaying XNUMXD shapes and could change the way humans and computers interact.

The resolution of the "fog screen" is not high, but it has great potential and is still easier to implement and use than immersive virtual reality technologies.

The new screen is a suspension of tiny drops of water in the air, onto which a three-dimensional or flat image is projected using a projector. Users can not only look at the picture, but also rotate it, drag it, "pass" it to each other with simple hand movements. The screen allows you to display two-dimensional images, while the absence of obstacles for hands facilitates interaction with the picture.

The table itself is a simple structure, consisting of a fog machine (water tank and fans), a projection screen, video cameras and projectors that create a kind of interactive whiteboard on the surface of the table. This board demonstrates two-dimensional images that can be "pulled out" from the screen and "hung" in the air - that is, use the projection on the water mist.

The developers note that their screen facilitates the collaboration of several people who have to exchange various data in the form of tables and three-dimensional images. Users can see each other's activities and quickly communicate the necessary information. Switching between individual and group work is also significantly accelerated. Such opportunities can be useful to the military or employees of emergency response headquarters.

The new desktop display will be presented at the end of April at the international conference ACM CHI 2014.
