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. The main impact will be on the cybersecurity and even on supply chain. As due to this pandemic s...

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...

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. ...

12- Holographic Display

Going for a date of an unknown person and don't know him? No need to get hyper. The holographic display will have a solution for you. The person can be viewed in a 3D display so no need of worrying. The interview, meetings or even conference could be experienced through 3D i.e holographic display technique. The technology is currently in progress and will take time to get mould, but will surely have a great importance in future! A holographic display is a type of display that utilizes light diffraction to create a virtual three-dimensional image of an object. Holographic displays are unique from other forms of 3D imaging in that they do not require the aid of any special glasses or external equipment for a viewer to see the image. The motion sensor senses the eyes movements of the person and adjusts the display to show the displaying contents per the necessity to give a user a good experience of viewing. The example of this holographic display can be seen in many applicatio...

11- Digital Twin

A recently developed topic called as DIGITAL TWIN has been introduced and has become popular overnight just because of its perspective to make the technology closer to the humans, and useful to the mankind. Well, in reality, the term 'twin' is used for humans who are born from the same source and has similar properties like looks, voice or maybe the behaviour. The twins posses nearly same qualities in many places and are easy to identify. Digital twin refers to a digital replica of physical assets, processes and systems that can be used for various purposes. The digital representation provides both the elements and the dynamics of how an Internet of Things device operates and lives throughout its life cycle. The digital twin has no source, but it is the similar digital replica of the actual circuit. The best example of this technology is shown in the film IRON MAN! Robert Downey Jr. was shown controlling the robot by simply working on it from his home through the IoT and...

10- Big Data

You may be wondering about the term BIG DATA which you may have heard by many technology freaks and some other peoples too. Is it really the topic that a common man could understand in a simple concept? Well, I think it is like introducing the child to sea and explaining its depth, size and expect him to understand which he would better understand when he himself experienced it. The messages that we send, the pics and videos we store, the other information related to work like excel sheets, word documents, etc are referred as DATA. The combination of such data's under some special instructions is called as data sets. Big data is data sets that are so voluminous and complex that traditional data-processing application software is inadequate to deal with them. Big data challenges include capturing data, data storage, data analysis, search, sharing, transfer, visualization, querying, updating, information privacy and data source. There are five concepts associated ...

8- Invisible Technology

Have you ever seen any videos on YouTube or any other source that have shown a newly under construction technology regarding use of motion sensor to replace the weighted product into the negligible one and to make the working easier without even carrying it around with us? Read down for the same. A touchscreen is an input and output device normally layered on the top of an electronic visual display of an information processing system. A user can give input or control the information processing system through simple or multi-touch gestures by touching the screen with a special stylus or one or more fingers. The motion sensor accepts the input from the motions or the movements done by the user and performs the tasks assigned to it. The smart phones today use the touchscreen and performs various tasks. Have you ever seen the battery performance on the smart phones? It will surely show you that display consumes more energy. Brightness do affects the battery life but not as the excess u...

2- Internet of things (IoT)

Today, the IoT has introduced itself to the world. The pros and cons of this technology are being known by many people. This technology will be widely accepted by the society in the coming years. IoT will be so developed that most of the works and their working decisions would be done by the machines and artificial intelligence on the data collected and exchanged by devices itself.    IoT can be defined as a connection of many systems together, like mobile, embedded systems and many more peripheral devices to the internet for performing some data exchange, decision making and many such intellectual activities. It follows the concept of acting as a decision making element which orders to perform some tasks on the information collected and exchanged with other devices. It is basically the most important part of the artificial intelligence(AI). The main motto behind this concept is to work on the real-time data, to have the information exchange, making the work easi...
