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 tiered mushroom
03.12.2010
On the islands of New Caledonia in the southwestern Pacific Ocean, French biologists from the Paris Museum of Natural History discovered an extremely unusual mushroom. It kind of resembles a fox, but has a pink color and grows in several tiers.
A new type of fungus lives in symbiosis with a local species of eucalyptus, braiding its roots with a shell of mycelium. New Caledonia is considered one of the "hot spots" of species diversity, here the process of emergence of new species is particularly fast. It is suggested that this may be due to the high content of metals in local soils, which causes mutations in all living things.
About 3000 species of mushrooms are known on the islands, but it is estimated that 25-30 thousand have not yet been discovered.
