19. Impact of COVID-19 on Technology and Cyber Security.

The world is experiencing the economic breakdown and is trying to cope up with basic amenities required for the people to survive. The COVID-19 has even challenged the economy and is affecting all the sectors. Lockdown has proved to be a solution to stop the virus transmission but is affecting the industry. But what are its impacts on technology?  The effects of COVID-19 are having a significant impact on the technology sector, affecting raw materials supply, disrupting the electronics value chain, and causing an inflationary risk on products. More positively, the disruption has caused an acceleration of remote working, and a rapid focus on evaluating and de-risking the end-to-end value chain. In addition, potential carbon emission reductions could result in renewed focus on sustainability practices. This article considers the shifting landscape across a number of areas.

18- Basics of Telecommunication

Ever wondered what actually is Telecom? What are its components? How they work? Read below for the same. What is Telecom? Telecommunications ("telecom") is a general term for a vast array of technologies that transmit and receive voice, data, and video information over varying distances through electronic means. The utilization of these networks and technologies varies greatly from organization to organization and may include:     Local, long distance, and toll-free voice traffic     Internet access     Video conferencing     LAN's and WAN's     Call centres     Converged networks (voice, data, wireless) How do mobile phones work? Mobile phones operate within a network based on services which are provided by Telecommunications Service Providers (TSPs). In short, mobile phones search for signals in order to operate. This is enabled through cell towers, which are cellular telephone sites w...

17- QR code vs SnapTag

Are you tired of seeing those ugly black and white square blots everywhere you look? Well now there is a solution; SnapTags.  SnapTags are raising the bar for interactive communication. SnapTags work like QR codes but give you much more. Instead of using a 2-D barcode, you now are able to use your very own logo that’s much more visually appealing to the consumer. This branding tool is extremely powerful for initiating consumer engagement at which the consumer is likely triggered by an emotional response. QR code (abbreviated from Quick Response Code) is the trademark for a type of matrix barcode. A barcode is a machine-readable optical label that contains information about the item to which it is attached. SnapTag provides trackable, device-aware, fully programmable QR codes that can deliver the best experience in any situation, for everyone. How is the look of snaptag? Well, here it is! Sample model This look is the basic snaptag model of this blog. This tag can be...

16- Market Analysis

Need to enter a market with your wonderful product? Well..! Did you analyze the market? A detailed study of the market and knowing its needs is the main motto behind the market analysis. Did you know, some companies earn a lot of money just by providing the data they collected during the market analysis. So, what is the market analysis? A market analysis is an assessment, which allows you to determine how suitable a particular market is for your industry. You can use market analysis to evaluate your current market or look at new markets. Whether you are a start-up or an established company, the market analysis would give you an idea for your product to be successful in its market. How to conduct market analysis? When you do the market analysis, you should look out for various points like how sustainable is your industry, how is the response or demand for it? If not, how will you create a market for it? and many more such questions need to be asked. What is your target audienc...

15- 3D printer

We are all familiar with the 2D printer i.e the black and white or colour printer. The photocopy of any document is printed with the printer as per the input image that was given to it. The later world expected the things to be experienced in the actual dimensional view and this led to the invention of the 3D printer. Now, what actually is a 3D printer? Making the desired objects of any dimensions as per the actual image that was given to the input is called as the 3D printer. The image sends the information like the height, width, depth, etc to the printer through the sensors or even manual inputs can be given. The obtained information is then processed, brought together to make a digital image and hence, the printing starts. The material used here varies as per the requirements. Some materials such as liquid molecules or powder grains being fused together and the desired shape are given. The printed objects are then made to cool and acquire the firm shape. The resulting object ...

14- Wireless Transmission

Ever thought of the wireless power transfer over long distance? And the wireless power transfer with no plugs and nothing to do with wires! Just as simple as transmitting and receiving. Sounds great! Wireless power transfer (WPT), wireless power transmission, wireless energy transmission, or electromagnetic power transfer is the transmission of electrical energy without wires as a physical link. In a wireless power transmission system, a transmitter device that is  driven by electric power from a power source, generates a time-varying electromagnetic field, which is capable of transporting power to a receiver device through open space, which extracts power from this field and supplies it to an electrical load.  The latest example of wireless power transfer is wireless charging of smart phones, earphones, etc. The technology is rapidly developing and will take greater stand in the later years.             ...

13- Electric Paint Technology

Ever thought of a plain wall having the lighting system, the plugs, the buttons attached straight alongside to the wall? I mean that the buttons or the led or even the plug socket that is DRAWN on the wall and actually functions as a system? Well, this technology is under serious consideration of many scientists and technologist. The use of this technology has been done in some labs for testing and have got the positive results. What actually this technology is? It is basically making a touch-sensitive circuit using electric paint. The electric paint is made by collecting all the cathode bars of the batteries and then making it in a liquid form by adding some acids and using it like a paint by painting some circuits as per the requirements. The advantage of this is that the space required would be very less and we can make some designs, drawings just to have a better look on the wall and still use it as a circuit. The cost would seriously reduce to just 25% of the present. ...
