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. ... >>

Tablet PC ZenPad C 7.0 09.08.2015

Asus introduced the ZenPad C 7.0, a new tablet computer running Android 5.0 Lollipop. The novelty has a screen with a diagonal of 7 inches and is available in two versions of the processor platform, supports voice calls and 3G mobile Internet as an option.

The tablet computer has a design with elements of the Asus corporate identity, reflecting the philosophy of Zen. The back panel of the tablet received an original embossed leather finish. Thanks to the rounded corners of the case and the non-slip coating, the tablet is comfortable to hold in your hand.

ZenPad C 7.0 is available in Wi-Fi (Z170C), 3G and mobile telephony (Z170CG, Z170MG) versions, so each user can choose a device that will suit their personal needs. ZenPad C 7.0 Z170C and Z170CG are equipped with Atom x3 processor, which provides high performance, smooth video playback and low power consumption. ZenPad C 7.0 Z170MG is equipped with a high-speed 64-bit 4-core MTK processor. Thanks to the 2-megapixel main and 0,3-megapixel front cameras with Asus PixelMaster technology, the user can take high-quality photos and shoot videos even in low light conditions.

The new Asus ZenPad C 7.0 is optimized for multimedia applications, so it is equipped with an IPS screen with viewing angles up to 178 degrees and high-quality color reproduction. The Asus VisualMaster technology suite, which includes Asus Tru2Life and Asus TruVivid technologies, utilizes state-of-the-art imaging processes and delivers high quality images.

So, Asus Tru2Life allows you to automatically change the contrast and sharpness of the picture in order to increase the range of displayed shades. In turn, Asus TruVivid is a display manufacturing method that reduces the number of layers of different materials from six to two, which contributes to a sharper, brighter and more colorful image, and also increases the sensitivity of the touch screen.

ZenPad C 7.0, like all representatives of the Asus ZenPad line, supports the new DTS-HD Premium Sound technology, which converts a stereo signal into a virtual multi-channel sound when played through headphones or the tablet's built-in speakers.
