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 ... >>

Energy-saving solar-powered clothing 20.12.2023

With increasing temperatures on the planet and environmental challenges, people are faced not only with the need to adapt to a changing climate, but also to ensure biological safety in conditions of elevated temperatures. One innovative approach is the creation of solar-powered smart clothing, which scientists say can function as a personal air conditioner (or heater, if necessary).

Innovative technologies in the field of energy-saving clothing that use solar panels for thermoregulation are opening up new prospects for providing comfort in a changing climate. Systems developed by scientists that can regulate body temperature using solar energy provide an effective and convenient way to maintain biological safety in conditions of elevated temperatures. Further development and industrialization of such technologies could make them accessible to a wider range of consumers, reducing dependence on traditional temperature control methods and promoting resilience to climate change.

To ensure the comfort and safety of the human body, it is important to maintain a certain temperature regime. However, with the planet's rising temperatures and the cold regions at the poles, creating clothing that can regulate temperature has become essential. Scientists have developed an innovative thermoregulation system for clothing that combines an organic photovoltaic module and bidirectional electrocaloric devices to provide cooling or heating.

Both components are not only flexible and suitable for use in clothing, but are also powered by sunlight, eliminating the need for external power sources. The developed clothing is designed to expand the thermal comfort zone from 22° - 28°C to 12,5° - 37,6°C.

The efficiency of the device is sufficient to provide 24 hours of operation after 12 hours of charging in sunlight. In addition, it has a simple structure, compact design and can be integrated into existing clothing.

Perhaps the future will bring universal thermoregulation technologies that are not limited to just power supply, and can even support the operation of electronic devices in special conditions.

With the increase in temperature on the planet, clothing with cooling systems is becoming more and more in demand. Over the summer, reports emerged that global companies were providing cooling vests to their outdoor workers. New technologies also include vests with built-in water pumps, made from breathable fabrics, and even built-in fans.
