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 ... >>
Petgugu Global cat litter
15.04.2024
Taking care of pets can often be a challenge, especially when it comes to keeping your home clean. A new interesting solution from the Petgugu Global startup has been presented, which will make life easier for cat owners and help them keep their home perfectly clean and tidy. Startup Petgugu Global has unveiled a unique cat toilet that can automatically flush feces, keeping your home clean and fresh. This innovative device is equipped with various smart sensors that monitor your pet's toilet activity and activate to automatically clean after use. The device connects to the sewer system and ensures efficient waste removal without the need for intervention from the owner. Additionally, the toilet has a large flushable storage capacity, making it ideal for multi-cat households. The Petgugu cat litter bowl is designed for use with water-soluble litters and offers a range of additional ... >>
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. ... >>
| Random news from the Archive Carbon emissions turned to stone
16.06.2016
Scientists and engineers from Columbia University (USA) used the example of the Hellisheidi power plant in Iceland for the first time to show that carbon dioxide emissions can be quickly mineralized in months. This achievement will help solve the problem of safe storage of greenhouse gases. The details are published in the journal Science, the results are summarized on the website of Columbia University.
Hellisheidi is the largest geothermal power plant in the world, located in Iceland, powered by hot springs of volcanic origin. Hellisheidi supplies electricity to the capital Reykjavik and the country's industry. At the same time, the process of generating electricity is not very environmentally friendly, resulting in waste in the form of volcanic gases, including carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide.
As part of the Carbfix pilot project, which started in 2012 at Hellisheidi, the gases were mixed with water and injected into the basalt rock beneath the power plant. In nature, this mixture in basalt sets off a series of chemical reactions that precipitate carbon as a chalk-like mineral. This is where the idea to apply this process to CO2 storage came from. According to calculations, under natural conditions, the process of deposition takes hundreds and thousands of years.
It turned out that it can be accelerated. In the basalts below Hellisheidi, 95% of the injected carbon solidified in less than two years. "This means that we can pump a large enough amount of CO2 into the depths and bury it quickly in a very reliable way," co-author Martin Stute, a hydrologist at the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory (USA), was quoted by the Columbia University press service. In the future, we will be able to use this method in power plants in places where there are large deposits of basalt." And there are many such places on Earth, almost the entire ocean floor is composed of basalts.
