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 ... >>

big data transfer record 24.02.2014

IBM has announced the creation of a new high-speed analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The prototype, which was unveiled at the International Solid State Circuits Conference (ISSCC) in San Francisco, can boost Internet speeds up to 400Gbps.

On a chip with an area of 5 mm2 there will be two ADCs, the performance of each makes it possible to perform up to 64 billion conversions per second. First of all, such power can be used in the processing of data received via fiber optic channels. It will also help you work more efficiently with Big Data. This includes the processing of any analog information, for example, recording from CCTV cameras, as well as increasing the speed of its transmission.

The technology was licensed to the Semtech Corporation, which will release ready-made solutions based on it. Commercial release of new products is planned to begin within a year.
