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 ... >>

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.

| Random news from the Archive Planes against pigeons
16.06.2000
British biologists suspect that "thunder" from planes crossing the sound barrier is causing carrier pigeons to go astray.
According to one hypothesis, pigeons use infrasounds that are not audible to humans, created by sea waves and surf, for navigation. Sonic booms from jet aircraft temporarily stun the birds, after which they lose their bearings.
So, in June 1997, 60 thousand English pigeons were released from Nantes (France), but almost a third did not return home, and the rest were late. It turned out that their flight coincided with the flight of the supersonic Concorde.
