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 ... >>

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 Tropics move to the Arctic
03.08.2012
Live tropical and subtropical species of marine protists have been found in the Arctic Ocean. Plankton traveled thousands of kilometers with the help of Atlantic currents and ended up near Norway, where they were found by local and American scientists. So far, oceanologists do not link this fact directly with global warming: most likely, there was a cyclic "impulse" that threw plankton into the northern waters. However, the Arctic waters are heating up very quickly, and there will be more and more such impulses.
The living creatures in question are radiolarians, microscopic unicellular organisms that live in almost all regions of the world's oceans. Since many radiolarians have been trapped in the mud over millions of years, scientists can also use them to study temperature fluctuations in the distant past and present.
A ship from the Norwegian Polar Institute was conducting routine plankton sampling northwest of the Norwegian archipelago of Svalbard, about halfway between the European mainland and the North Pole. When the scientists analyzed the samples, they were surprised to find that out of 145 taxa (samples), 98 came from the south, even from hot regions like the tropics. Most likely, the "invaders" were brought by the warm North Atlantic Current (an extension of the Gulf Stream), which travels from the Caribbean to the North Atlantic, but usually depletes somewhere between Greenland and Europe.
Previously, oceanologists have already found out that sometimes pulses of warm water penetrate the Norwegian coastline and the Arctic basin. Such impulses occurred in 1920, 1930 and 1950, and also, as we now know, in 2010.
Unfortunately, the periodicity of such events does not mean that they are habitual for the Arctic and global warming does not threaten to “contaminate” the North with organisms from another ecosystem. Research shows that due to global climate change, the impulses are becoming more frequent and penetrate further into the heart of the Arctic Ocean. So, in the northern waters, radiolarians were able to live for about a month. At first glance, this is not much, but this time is enough for plankton to give birth to 80 generations and, in theory, begin to adapt to colder water.
