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 ... >>

Buffaloes in Germany 22.10.2001

Epidemics of "mad cow disease" and foot-and-mouth disease in Western Europe are forcing farmers to look for other sources of milk and meat.

There are now 700 buffaloes grazing in the grasslands of Germany, and soon there will be many more - so promises the newly formed union of buffalo farmers. Mostly animals are imported from Italy, Bulgaria and Romania.

Buffalo meat costs twice as much as beef, but it has 70% less cholesterol, and buffalo milk is significantly superior to cow's milk in fat content and protein content (although milk yields are ten times less than in modern highly productive livestock breeds).
