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 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.

Northerners have bigger brains 08.01.2012

Anthropologists at Oxford University (England) measured 55 skulls kept in English museums since the XNUMXth century and found that the size of the human brain increases with distance from the equator.

The studied collection includes skulls from Australia, England, India, the Canary Islands, Kenya, China, Micronesia, Scandinavia, Somalia, the USA, Uganda and France. The largest brains are characteristic of the Scandinavians, the smallest brain of the inhabitants of Micronesia.

Although earlier studies have shown that the IQ is higher among northern peoples, the authors of the work associate its results not with the mind, but with vision. Northern latitudes are darker, skies are often cloudy, winters are longer, so more brain space is required to process information from the eyes.
