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 ... >>

New microcontrollers with ARM7 core 26.02.2007

NXP announced the new LPC2478 microcontroller, which is the only ARM7 microcontroller in production with onboard flash memory and integrated LCD support. The non-flash version is designated LPC2470.

A feature of the new microcontrollers is the presence of two high-speed ARM core buses (AHB), which ensure the parallel operation of a large set of peripheral devices with high bandwidth. These include an LCD interface, a 10/100 Ethernet bus, an OTG device/USB host bus, and two CAN interfaces.

Significantly reducing cost, floor space and power consumption, NXP's new microcontrollers are ideal for industrial, consumer, retail and medical applications that use LCD panels and require a LAN or Internet connection.
