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 ... >>

| Random news from the Archive The size of the dog and its tendency to aggression
06.02.2024
Researchers from the University of Sao Paulo in Brazil have discovered interesting trends in dogs' aggressive behavior related to their size. The study's findings indicate that large dogs, in general, exhibit less aggression than small breeds, prompting a reexamination of common beliefs about pet temperament.
The findings demonstrate that aggression in dogs depends on their size, head shape, gender and the level of activity of the owner. Understanding these factors can help improve the human-animal relationship and promote the development of more effective training and education methods for pets.
In the study, more than 665 dogs of various breeds were included in the analysis to identify factors that influence the level of aggression in pets. Owners completed online questionnaires regarding their own profile, pet characteristics, and any aggressive behavior exhibited by their dogs.
Experts have confirmed that the larger and heavier the dog, the less likely it is to behave aggressively. Each additional kilogram of mass reduces aggression by 3%. Small breeds, especially those with flattened faces, are more likely to be aggressive than large and medium-sized breeds.
Factors such as the dog's gender and the owner's activity level also played a role in the level of aggression. Females showed less aggression towards their owner than males, and dogs that were walked regularly by their owners were less aggressive.
These results allow us to better understand the nature of aggressive behavior among domestic dogs and help create a more informed attitude towards choosing a breed and raising a pet.
