What advertising gimmick helped American Orville Redenbacher become the King of Popcorn?

Orville Redenbacher and his partner Charles Bowman developed a hybrid variety of corn with larger, softer kernels, but no popcorn company was willing to buy the variety from them due to its high cost.

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 attractiveness of caring men 14.04.2024

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. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food. A study found that men who showed empathy and kindness were more attractive to women compared to men who showed empathy and kindness. ... >>

Shark Twitter 02.01.2014

Scientists in Western Australia have placed special sensors on sharks that automatically transmit messages about the approach of a predator on Twitter, Sky News reports.

The experiment, designed to reduce the number of accidents, involved 320 predators. When one of these sharks approaches the shore closer than one kilometer, the sensor sends a signal to a computer that automatically formats it into a short message posted on Twitter by Surf Life Saving Western Australia's (SLSWA). The message contains information about the size, type of shark and the approximate location of the predator.

Representatives of SLSWA argue that this way of alerting the public about a possible danger is much more effective than traditional ones, such as radio or television.

“Previously, you could not receive such information until the next day. By this time, the threat could already have passed, and the information would not be relevant. Now, threats are reported very quickly, and if you want to find them, you will find them,” the employee said. services Chris Peck.

In terms of activity of marine predators, the western coast of Australia is considered one of the most dangerous in the world. The last shark attack occurred in Western Australia on November 23rd. Then a surfer who was about 20 years old became a victim of a shark.
