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. ... >>

Hydrogen storage in residential areas 18.06.2021

German company HPS Home Power Solutions and Wohnwerke have developed a hydrogen-based energy storage system for residential applications.

The new system, called Picea, will be sold under the Neubauten brand and will first be tested in a model house in Asperglen-Rudersberg near Stuttgart, which should confirm the availability and reliability of the system.

The system is planned to be connected to a photovoltaic system and store electricity using hydrogen power-to-gas technology, which the manufacturer says provides year-round, independent, CO2-free electricity for single- or two-family homes. The system also uses all process heat from energy production, storage and use to reduce the amount of energy needed to heat a home.

HPS Home Power Solutions claims an overall utilization rate of its Picea system is around 90 percent. In addition, its capacity is more than 100 times the capacity of available household batteries.

Late last year, Wohnwerke began commercial production of its autonomous energy storage system. HPS also announced a sales partnership for its Picea system with Germany's Energieinsel.
