Focus Description:

The magician takes a small bag and shows it to the viewer to make sure that there is nothing in it. After that, the magician pronounces a magic word, shakes the bag, puts his hand in and a coin appears from it.

Focus secret:

Before showing the trick, you must first pick up the coins and squeeze them into your fist so that this is not noticeable. When you open the bag to show that a coin has appeared, you must put your hand in, carefully release the coins there, and take them back. So the viewer will think that it really came from somewhere.

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. ... >>

Artificial intelligence got a nose 01.03.2017

Scientists have long argued about exactly how the receptors of the human body allow us to perceive a wide range of odors and give them certain descriptions. In an attempt to solve this problem, teams of engineers from around the world were asked to create an AI that could perceive smells as well as humans.

Predicting color is not that difficult: for example, if a light wave reaches a wavelength of 510 nm, then most people will say that it is green. But figuring out how a particular molecule smells is much more difficult. 22 teams of scientists have created a set of algorithms that can predict the smell of various molecules based on their chemical structure. The full range of practical applications of the program remains to be seen, but the developers hope that, first of all, it will help perfumers, pharmacists and food workers develop new, unique combinations of smells.

The work began with a recent study by Leslie Vosshull and colleagues at the Rockefeller University in New York, in which 49 volunteers had to guess the smell of 467 odorants. For each of them, a comparison system of 19 basic patterns was developed: the subjects said whether the smell was similar to fish or garlic, assessed the intensity and individual pleasantness of the aroma. As a result, a catalog was created with more than a million cells characterizing certain odorous molecules.

When computational biologist Pablo Meyer found out about this, he immediately saw the study as an opportunity to test whether a computer system could predict how people would evaluate smells. Despite the fact that researchers have discovered about 400 odor receptors in the human body, it remains a mystery to scientists how exactly they work together so that a person can distinguish even subtle shades of odors.

In 2015, Meyer and colleagues launched the DREAM Olfaction Prediction Challenge. The participants of the competition received at their disposal the same rating tables of volunteers that describe odors, along with the chemical structure of the molecules that produce them. In addition, the participants were provided with a database of 4800 descriptions for each individual molecule - its atoms, their relative position, general geometry, which eventually amounted to about 2 million data points. Ultimately, the data should be used to train computer programs to recognize odors based on structural information.

Twenty-two teams from all over the world entered the competition, and while many did a good job, two teams stand out in particular. The Michigan State team, led by Yang Fang Guang, was the best at coming up with an algorithm for predicting the smell of individual things. Another team from the University of Arizona, led by Richard Gerkin, was the best at training the program to average odor ratings across the entire sample. Meyer reports this in an article published in the journal Science.

Of course, many scientists are skeptical about the developments, saying that the work done, although it makes a significant contribution to science, is still a rather primitive selection, and 19 descriptive elements for the entire spectrum of smells in nature are clearly very, very few.

Alternative studies with volunteers used 80 or more of these criteria to verbally evaluate different odors. It is not clear whether the existing algorithm will be able to correctly predict the odor score if it has to face such an array of information. So, to date, the perception of smells remains a mystery for both physicians and engineers.
