In the original (from the report of F. V.

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.

Electric shock against weeds 23.10.2018

British scientists offer agricultural workers to fight weeds with electric current.

The development of this method was made within the innovative project RootWave. The idea to put it into practice arose as a result of demonstrating the possibilities of using a hand cultivator in parks and gardens. In turn, RootWave is a system that can be installed on a tractor. While moving, it sends out a charge of current that kills weeds more than five centimeters in height. The cleaning equipment is powered by the tractor's power take-off shaft.

The development company thought about the need for the described system after the use of pesticides was banned in a number of countries. For example, French and German agriculture is now forced to do without sixty-six percent of the substances mentioned.

So far, the project has received recognition at the London FoodBytes exhibition and has earned the Judges Choice Award. Now its representatives are at the stage of searching for investors.

The start of mass distribution of RootWave is scheduled for 2020.
