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. ... >>

Liquid writing technology 22.10.2023

German scientists from the Technical University of Darmstadt and John Gutenberg University have presented innovative technology that allows the creation of durable images in a liquid medium. Based on the principles of diffusion and osmosis, this method opens up new perspectives for the technology of writing and drawing in liquids.

The researchers used the liquid mixture as an alternative to paper, where a low concentration of charged ions and large colloidal particles replace traditional ink. A small ion exchange bead that can replace large charged particles becomes a writing pen.

The process of rotating a liquid using gravity allows researchers to create different patterns and images. The moving liquid, carrying colloidal particles along with it, forms visible lines and images in the trace of the ion exchange pen.

The experiment was carried out using silica particles dissolved in water, but scientists are continuing research to develop alternative materials for "paper" and "ink", as well as improving pen control mechanisms for writing in liquid.
