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 The camera leaves traces
14.12.2006
As you know, you can find the barrel from which the bullet flew out by the characteristic scratches left by each firearm on soft lead. It is possible to find a typewriter on which any text is printed by the smallest individual features of the letters.
And American programmer Jessica Friedrich from the State University of New York has found a way to identify digital cameras in the same way. Each camera introduces so-called noise into the picture - interference associated with the incorrect functioning of individual elements of the photosensitive matrix. For example, in a single-color section of an image, individual pixels (dots that make up the picture) may have a different color.
The pattern of such electronic noise is unique to each camera. A program developed by Jessica Friedrich detects these fingerprints. During testing, the program, without a single error, determined that 3000 shots belonged to ten cameras.
According to FBI experts, the new method can be useful, for example, when searching for manufacturers and distributors of pornographic images.
