Who Invented the Bathing Suit?

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.

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.

Aggression is written on the face 21.11.2008

Physiognomy, the science of the correspondence of a person's appearance to his character, popular until the end of the XNUMXth century, seems to be able to be revived.

Canadian anthropologists measured the ratio of face width to height in photographs of professional hockey players, and then compared the result with the number of minutes spent by the corresponding player on the penalty box for being too aggressive.

It turned out that hockey players with more rounded, broad faces are more likely to abuse power techniques. This pattern was also confirmed in students who were asked to play a computer game that provoked aggressive behavior. But such a connection was not found among the female students who played. The Canadian women's hockey team does not have it either.

The reasons for the pattern found are not very clear, but they suggest that it is due to the action of the male sex hormone - testosterone, which is responsible for both the level of aggressiveness and some physical traits of a man.
