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 Petgugu cat litter bowl is designed for use with water-soluble litters and offers a range of additional ... >>

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. ... >>

New technology for cooling things with ions 27.07.2023

Researchers from the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and the University of California at Berkeley (USA) have presented an innovative cooling method that is based on the phase changes of materials and uses the principles of conservation and release of energy. This method opens up the potential for efficient and sustainable cooling for domestic and industrial use.

The research focuses on using the effect of phase changes, such as the transition from solid ice to liquid water, to create a cooling effect. When the temperature rises to cause the ice to melt, heat is absorbed from the environment, resulting in efficient cooling.

One way to activate the phase change is to add ions or charged particles. This can be done, for example, by sprinkling roads with salt to prevent ice formation. The researchers proposed an ionocaloric cycle based on this principle that can effectively compete with existing refrigerants.

Modeling of the ionocaloric cycle and experiments using salt showed the promise of this technique. By changing the melting temperature of the material by applying a current, the researchers achieved a significant temperature shift. So, using less than one volt of charge, it was possible to achieve a temperature shift of 25 degrees Celsius.

This new technology has the potential to replace existing refrigeration systems, such as vapor compression, which depend on gases with a high global warming potential. Such methods become especially relevant in the context of international agreements aimed at reducing emissions of harmful substances.

The next step for researchers is to translate the results from the lab into practical commercial systems. The successful implementation of this technology can significantly influence the future of heating and cooling systems, turning them into more efficient and environmentally friendly processes.
