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.

Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>
