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 ... >>

| Random news from the Archive Lethal dose of chocolate calculated
12.09.2020
An international group of scientists has determined how much chocolate you can eat per day without harm to the body. You should not completely exclude your favorite delicacy from the diet, since chocolate contains a lot of useful elements.
With moderate consumption of chocolate, the risk of developing coronary heart disease decreases, and the level of "good" cholesterol increases. Chocolate also blocks inflammatory processes, improves the condition of blood vessels. The positive properties of chocolate are explained by the content in the product of such useful substances as catechin, procyanidins and epicatechin.
The healthiest chocolate is the one with the lowest sugar content and the highest cocoa content. We are talking about bitter (dark) chocolate. You should also monitor the amount of product consumed. The safe daily allowance for dark chocolate is 50 grams and for milk chocolate 20 grams.
Doctors have calculated a certain dose of chocolate consumption, after which a person can die: 3 grams for every kilogram of a person. So, for example, if a person weighs 70 kg, then 17 kg of chocolate can be a lethal dose for a person. However, in practice, there were cases when, eating 5 kg of chocolate, a person died. Children under the age of 10 are not particularly recommended to consume more than 1 kg of chocolate per day.
