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 ... >>

New Generation Ultrabooks from Intel 09.06.2013

By the end of the year, new-generation ultrabooks built on Intel Haswell processors will appear on the market, official representatives of the company said. Recall that these chips are manufactured using 22-nanometer technology based on transistors with a three-dimensional structure (Tri-Gate). They are endowed with an improved graphics controller with support for the DirectX 11 API. According to Intel, compared with the products of the previous generation Ivy Bridge, the new processors will increase the battery life of laptops by 50% without sacrificing performance.

Ultrabooks based on Haswell can be as thin as 23mm. Some models will receive touch displays and support for voice control. In addition, Intel recommends that such computers be equipped with facial recognition capabilities using the image captured by the webcam.

The battery life on a single battery charge will be 9 hours or more when idle in the Windows 8 operating system. When playing HD video, this figure will reach 6 hours or more.

The time to wake up from sleep mode will be reduced: it will be less than three seconds. By the holiday season, ultrabooks starting at $600 are expected to arrive.
