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. ... >>

Revealed the secret of gait dinosaurs 09.03.2022

Scientists from the University of Liverpool analyzed the footprints of sauropod dinosaurs in a geological formation in Arkansas. It turned out that huge dinosaurs, such as diplodocus, had a diagonal gait. This is how a modern hippopotamus moves.

An analysis of fossilized dinosaur footprints in the De Queen Formation in Arkansas, USA, showed that sauropods had a diagonal gait. This means that the paws, located diagonally from each other, took a step at about the same time. That is, each step of the front leg went in tandem with the back leg on the opposite side, or these movements were very close. A similar gait is observed in living hippos and no one else on Earth.

Sauropods were among the largest animals that ever lived on our planet. Some of them weighed as much as 14 African elephants. These herbivorous dinosaurs lived on Earth between 200 and 66 million years ago.

"These huge dinosaurs used a diagonal gait to keep their powerful bodies in balance," says Jens Lallensack of the University of Liverpool.

It used to be thought that sauropods walked like modern elephants. These animals use the so-called "longitudinal" gait for movement, when two limbs on one side of the body move forward one after the other. The right front foot takes a step, then the right back foot takes a step, then the left front foot, then the left back foot, and so on.

To find out, scientists analyzed the location of the fossilized footprints of dinosaurs. This position changes when any animal walks or changes to an easy run. Similar changes in movement can be noticed if there are traces that are located on the same line.

As a result, scientists found that the gait of sauropods was different from the movement of all living animals, and is most similar to the movement of a hippopotamus. While walking, the front paw of the sauropod always touched the ground before the diagonal paw was lifted.
