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 Fulgurites tell of an ancient climate
14.10.2007
The word "fulgurite" comes from the Latin fulgur - lightning. This is a trace of lightning that struck the ground and fused the minerals of the soil into a glassy mass, usually cylindrical in shape.
Mexican geochemist Rafael Navarro-Gonzalez, studying a collection of ancient fulgurites from the sands in southwestern Egypt, obtained data on the climate of this region of Africa 15 years ago. The age is determined by the depth of occurrence of fulgurites in the sand.
The geochemist analyzed gas bubbles trapped in molten glass when fulgurite formed. An increased content of carbon dioxide was noted, and the ratio of carbon isotopes in it indicates that this gas arose as a result of photosynthesis. That is, grass and trees grew on the site of the present desert.
