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. ... >>

IRM-01/02 - miniature PCB power supplies from Mean Well 22.08.2016

Mean Well has expanded its line of compact PCB-mounted AC-DC converters with the new IRM-01 and IRM-02 series with output power of 1W and 2W, respectively.

With the release of new power supplies, the IRM family already has ten series in the most popular power range of 1, 2, 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 45, 60 W. Power supplies are made in a plastic case, filled with a compound and are available in two versions: DIP-mounting and SMD-mounting. Modules for SMD mounting have an S at the end of the name, for example IRM-01-12S.

The IRM-01 and IRM-02 power supplies are characterized by their miniature size and ultra-low power consumption at idle (<75 mW). The products have an input/output insulation dielectric strength of 3 kV and are operable in a wide input voltage range of 85-305 V (AC)/120-430 V (DC) at a temperature of -30?C...+85?C. In terms of electromagnetic compatibility, the power supplies meet the requirements of EN55022 for class B (without additional filter elements).

The new series of power supplies IRM-01 and IRM-02 are suitable for use in various industrial devices, automation equipment, IT equipment and other devices and systems where low power and compact size are required.

Main technical parameters of IRM-01 and IRM-02 series:

Output power 1 and 2 W
Output voltage from a range: 3,3; 5; 9; 12; fifteen; 15 V
Board Mount Type: DIP/SMD
Input voltage range 85-305V (AC) / 120-430V (DC)
Operating temperature range: -30°С...+85°С (with dependence above +70°С)
Short circuit, overload and overvoltage protection
Dimensions (LxWxH): 33,7 x 22,2 x 15 mm (DIP); 33,7 x 22,2 x 16mm (SMD)
