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 ... >>
Petgugu Global cat litter
15.04.2024
Taking care of pets can often be a challenge, especially when it comes to keeping your home clean. A new interesting solution from the Petgugu Global startup has been presented, which will make life easier for cat owners and help them keep their home perfectly clean and tidy. Startup Petgugu Global has unveiled a unique cat toilet that can automatically flush feces, keeping your home clean and fresh. This innovative device is equipped with various smart sensors that monitor your pet's toilet activity and activate to automatically clean after use. The device connects to the sewer system and ensures efficient waste removal without the need for intervention from the owner. Additionally, the toilet has a large flushable storage capacity, making it ideal for multi-cat households. The Petgugu cat litter bowl is designed for use with water-soluble litters and offers a range of additional ... >>
The attractiveness of caring men
14.04.2024
The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue. They looked at how women responded to men's emotional responsibility and willingness to help others. The study's findings could change our understanding of what makes men attractive to women. 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. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food. A study found that men who showed empathy and kindness were more attractive to women compared to men who showed empathy and kindness. ... >>
| Random news from the Archive Hyperloop overclocked to 1019 km / h
06.11.2020
The fourth industrial revolution will require not only the robotization of production, but also new types of public transport for a "hyper-connected" society. Such transport should combine low costs, low emissions and be very fast. As a working option, transportation of people in "hypertubes" with pumped-out Hyperloop air is considered, the speed of movement in which will exceed 1000 km / h. The Koreans proved that all this is possible, however, only on the layout.
The Korea Railway Research Institute successfully passed the 1019 km/h speed mark on the Hypertube mock-up. It is claimed to be a world record in the study of a promising form of public transport. The 1:17 scale model of the "hypertube" recreates the accelerating unit, the vacuum tube for movement, the transport capsule and the braking system. Each part of the layout provides an opportunity to test methods, technologies and design elements before building a full-scale solution.
A speed of 1019 km / h was achieved at a pressure in the pipe of 0,001 of atmospheric pressure. The layout allows you to set an arbitrary pressure in the pipe, which makes it possible to conduct experiments in order to find the most cost-effective solution. In parallel, the institute is working on the creation of superconducting magnets, which should become an element of the system for moving transport capsules.
The researchers hope that over time, the hyperpipe-based transport system will become commonplace for the country and will contribute to the development of its economy.
