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. ... >>

Computer displays instead of glasses and contact lenses 29.07.2014

Specialists from the University of California at Berkeley (USA), the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (USA) and Microsoft Corporation are developing a new type of computer display that will allow people with various visual impairments to clearly see images without glasses or contact lenses.

The essence of the technology is as follows. Based on information about the degree of deviation of the user's vision from the norm, software algorithms correct the image in real time in a special way. On top of the screen is a special acrylic light filter with tiny holes corresponding to the array of pixels. As a result, the rays passing through the filter reach the user's eyes in such a way that he perceives a clear picture - as if looking at the display through glasses.

Researchers have already developed a prototype of the new system, but it is not yet ready for the commercial market. The thing is, there are a number of issues that need to be addressed. So, for now, the image can be clearly seen only from a certain distance. It is planned to circumvent this shortcoming by using a complex for tracking the position of the head and eyes of a person looking at the screen.

In addition, in its current form, the system allows only one user to view a clear image - for other people looking at the screen, the picture looks blurry. It may be possible to solve this problem through the use of high-resolution panels and advanced image processing algorithms.
