Houston announced the creation of "artificial skin for robots"

16
The publication Futurism, citing research results published by scientists from the University of Houston, reports the creation of "artificial skin for robots". The material states that, although the innovative development has not yet passed all the stages of testing, it is already clear that it enables robotic technology to “feel” what it touches.

The leader of the research team is a specialist named Kunjiang Yu. It is explained that “artificial leather for robots” is based on semiconductor materials and the synthesis of organic and inorganic substances. The main compound used in the American development is polydimethylsiloxane (a substance based on silicon). In addition, an innovative material based on nanofibers, passed through a special hardening procedure for passing current with minimal resistance, was used.

Researchers say that the new development will allow to create medical equipment that can work more efficiently - according to new principles. For example, the option of creating special surgical gloves as well as medical implants with the ability to track all their basic parameters is being considered. And this is not the only area where new development can be applied with high efficiency.

      It would be better if they developed artificial brains in Houston, otherwise the natural ones of the leadership of the United States leave much to be desired.

    Previously, the whole world science was drawn by the USSR, and now those countries that have adopted the Soviet teaching methodology both in schools and in non-universities are China as an example.

    At highnews, the news about artificial skin that can sense pressure and temperature was about three years ago. Why didn’t she go into production, at least into bionic prostheses? Grandmas and the lack of necessary technologies, in the prosthesis it is still impossible to provide feedback on heat and pressure.

    I agree with "the same lech" - another twenty years will pass and going into the store (cafe) will you look around - is the seller real or artificial? Is the customer in front of you live or synthetic? Well, in the sense you can make a joke or not - you still get a standard mechanical answer ...

      "Well, in the sense you can make a joke or not" /////

      But this is not true. Already there are navigators "with a sense of humor."
      They understand voice jokes and answer joke to joke.
      And if you are rude, the software will answer: "how rude you are!". Etc.
