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 ... >>

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.

Random news from the Archive LCD TVs get cheaper thanks to Sony and Samsung
19.06.2006
Insight Media recently published the results of its market survey of the LCD TV market, showing some success for Sony and Samsung in this business.
It looks like the two companies, using their joint brainchild S-LCD, provoked a strong price reduction in May for LCD TVs with a diagonal of 40 to 44 inches. According to Insight Media, this ultimately led to a drop in the cost of TVs of the indicated diagonals in May by 5,8%, against the characteristic 1% for other segments. In monetary terms, the average price of a 40...44-inch LCD TV dropped by $182, from $3142 to $2960.
So far, plasma TVs of similar diagonals of 40...44 inches will cost the buyer about 20% cheaper than LCD TV. But the price gap between technologies is steadily shrinking. Sony and Samsung account for approximately 2/3 of the entire LCD TV market with a resolution of 1366x768 and a diagonal of 40...44 inches. Samsung recently introduced 5 new models and reduced the price of 2 models from the previous season.
Sony announced 2 models and reduced the price of 4 predecessor TVs. Thanks to such an aggressive policy of the two companies, buyers have the opportunity to purchase better products at more attractive prices, which is good news.
