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. ... >>

ASUS VX279H-J and VX239H-J monitors 25.04.2015

The range of ASUS monitors has been replenished with the VX279H-J and VX239H-J models, which implement a number of proprietary technologies designed to reduce the strain on the user's eyes.

Diagonal VX279H-J and VX239H-J is respectively 27 and 23 inches. At the same time, the key characteristics of the panels are the same. They are made on the AH-IPS matrix and have a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels. The response time is 5 ms, viewing angles horizontally and vertically - 178 degrees. Typical and dynamic contrast ratios are 1000:1 and 80:000, brightness is 000 cd/m1.

ASUS Eye Care, Flicker-Free and Low Blue Light systems protect the user's visual apparatus. Low Blue Light technology, in particular, reduces the intensity of blue light emitted and protects the eyes from its possible side effects. In turn, Flicker-Free prevents image flickering at various brightness levels.

The VX279H-J has 1,5W stereo speakers, while the VX239H-J has 1W. HDMI and D-Sub interfaces are provided for connecting signal sources.

The dimensions of the older panel are 622,6 x 210,1 x 441,3 mm, weight - 4,6 kg. The younger of the two new products has dimensions of 532,9 x 210,1 x 389,8 mm and weighs 3,8 kg. The manufacturer provides a three-year warranty.
