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 ... >>

Far vision through phone 08.05.2004

The South Korean company SK Telecom has offered a new service to cell phone owners.

Now the happy owner of a mobile handset, who has paid for the corresponding service, will receive an SMS-message that an intruder has entered his house. For this, a motion-detecting webcam located in a protected area is used, connected to the Internet via a wireless broadband connection.

If necessary, the subscriber can independently initiate a "video session" with the protected premises, having received a live "picture" from the web-camera on his phone. Each such "video request" will cost the "inquisitive" owner of an apartment or office 0,26 USD. Test operation of service was planned to begin in April.
