Tactile avatar is an artificial tactile perception and cognition system used as a surrogate for human tactile cognition with potential to produce smooth or soft and rough tactile sensations by its user. In a new report now published on Advanced Science, researchers used a piezoelectric tactile sensor to record varying physical information including pressure, temperature, hardness, sliding velocity and surface topography.
Whales sing and the earth answers. This isn't a poetic line, it's what scientist have found in a recent discovery. Whales often use songs created from their fins to communicate with each other, also impact the earth with these noises - and it could prove useful for scientists.

Plant-eating dinosaurs probably arrived in the Northern Hemisphere millions of years after their meat-eating cousins, a delay likely caused by climate change, a new study found. A new way of calculating the dates of dinosaur fossils found in Greenland shows that the plant eaters, called sauropodomorphs, were about 215 million years old, according to a study in Monday's Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
