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 ... >>

Finland to launch wooden satellite into space 03.05.2021

Finland is going to launch a unique satellite into space, which will be made of wood. With its help, scientists plan to find out how the tree will behave during a long stay in extreme conditions for this material. We are talking about high and low temperatures, as well as vacuum and radiation.

The satellite will be a cube, will be about a dozen centimeters on each of the faces. The device will not weigh more than one kilogram. The launch is scheduled for the end of 2021 from a spaceport located not in Finland itself, but in New Zealand.

It is noteworthy that the satellite will fly around the home planet. A full rotation, if everything goes according to plan, is planned to be completed every 90 minutes.

It should be noted that in recent years, scientists, astronomers and engineers have been trying to explore space more actively, launching many interesting projects into production. For example, Japan has already announced its intention to launch into space a device made of wood with the same purpose.

The advantage of wood is that it does not block electromagnetic waves or the earth's magnetic field. Because of this, antennas and orientation mechanisms can be placed in wooden structures without fear that the devices will not perform their functions correctly due to interference or signal problems.
