Future of ICT
Information is power. In this age of globalization in the 21st century, the use of information and technology is universal. In the modern age, information and communication technology is the most important medium for building society and accelerating the expected development. Through information and communication technology ICT, it is possible to lead a better life, conduct human welfare, and relationship development activities, and safeguard the national interest. Through ICT, the world can be turned into a global village. To know the world and bring themselves to the doorstep; Only by knowing ICT and gaining ICT education is possible.
The present age is the new age of discovery. New
theories and practical aspects of information and communication technology are
constantly taking us forward. Information and communication technology has made
the various nations of the world a community by pledging generous cooperation,
trade, prosperity, and mutual sympathy.
Information and communication technology has provided
an unprecedented and unparalleled opportunity for simple analysis of
information, accurate and clean presentation, preservation, and practice of
creative talent.
Future Technology:
Technology is advancing at an incredible pace in
today's world. And in the future technology will reach a more unique height,
which we ordinary people may not be able to imagine sitting at this time. The
sky-high difference between the technologies of the developed countries of the
world and the technologies of the underdeveloped countries is now very normal.
So, this inequality will increase in the future. With this technology change,
our way of life will also change.
What will be the future world? Below is a discussion
of some of the technology products that could take over the world in the
future:
Ink wiper
printer:
We usually use special fluids to correct mistakes made
in paper ink. But then a layer of white color falls on the paper. That's
probably why designer Kim Su Yeon wanted to develop a printer that would
perfectly remove printing ink from paper. There is no problem even if the wrong
text is printed, it will be printed again by deleting the ink completely. The
thing is, it will return the white paper to its original form. This will make
the paper reusable. But it can only whiten the whole paper, we may have to wait
for something new to remove the ink on a certain part of the paper.
Five-finger
mouse:
Japanese company Double Research & Development Co.
Is building a new type of input device that will input into a computer like a
mouse called "Amenbo". It is a five-finger input device that can
detect the movement and pressure of each finger separately. Each Fingertip part
of the device is equipped with a special sensor so that all the finger commands
can be received at once, especially in the case of games commands can be done
with one hand using many tasks very easily and seamlessly. Each finger of the
device is connected by a flexible mesh-like wire so that it can be extended for
the movement of fingers of different sizes.
Portable
printer:
Now everything in technology is becoming portable.
Especially the portable version of the software is very popular nowadays. So in
that case, why the hardware will be omitted? Portable printers are entering the
portable era. Not a huge printer to carry, it's a very small device. It can
take a small amount of printing load. 23 cm x 6 cm size paper is suitable for
this. On one side of the device, there is a special slot for slot-type
cartridge access. On one side there is a USB port. How much has been printed
with the help of a special LED called OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) will
be displayed on the printer.
Agricultural
robot:
The current world of robot technology has come a long
way. Currently, this robot is being used for many complex tasks in space,
including in many large factories. Its use in agriculture has also started experimentally
in some places. The robot is being used experimentally on some farms in Boston,
USA. Robots now do 40% of the work that used to be done by humans. Again Japan is a little ahead of this way.
They have discovered a robot that can tell if a strawberry is ripe or still raw.
However, this robot is currently being used successfully by MIT (Massachusetts
Institute of Technology). They are using these robots in different ways and
improving them. It may soon be seen that the farmer robot is working on the
farm.
Ultraviolet
radiation resistant medicine:
Just as it is not possible to walk by ignoring the
sun, it is not possible to ignore the effects of the ultraviolet rays emitted
from the sun. And for this reason, many people use different types of
ultraviolet ray-resistant creams. Medicines are being developed that can be
taken to walk under the light of the divine sun, but the ultraviolet rays
cannot harm us. Although there is no such drug on the market yet, a teacher at
King’s College in London, Dr. Paul Long. He has been trying to make this
medicine for three years. And he has succeeded. However, the drug is currently
undergoing various tests, so that it does not cause any harm to humans. Dr.
According to Paul Long, the drug will be available in the market in the next 5
years.
Paper-thin
computers and phones:
At the CES (Consumer Electronics Show) in 2013, two
Canadian and American universities jointly demonstrated this technology for the
first time. They named their project "Paperphone". Queens University
teacher Dr. According to Roel Vertegaal, "This is the future, in the next
few years people will be able to use and feel like this phone."
Dental regeneration:
Scientists continue to study crocodiles to see if the crocodile teeth break or fall off, but the crocodile teeth regrow. With this, the scientists started their research. Finally, in 2012, scientists announced that by using human stem cells and combining them with crocodile processes, they have now discovered a way to make human teeth regenerate. The laboratory is currently conducting tests on various animals. However, it will still take 5 to 10 years for this system to be open to the public.
Productivity
will fascinate artificial intelligence:
Although machine learning has made great strides over
the past few decades, productivity in the United States has fallen by nearly 50
percent since 2004. The feature of new technologies is that productivity
increases a bit soon after they are discovered, but then it decreases. This, of
course, requires a lot of time. Industrialization occurs after steam engines.
After the discovery of electricity, the industries had to be redesigned. Many
changes in the computer welfare society have been achieved independently. But
from an overall global business perspective, e-commerce is still a very small
part of the business world. Similarly, machine learning systems will take a
long time to change our economy. What is needed at the moment is an investment.
And these investments need to be made in skills, businesses, etc. that are
rethinking their supply chain, customer relationships, and their services. And
only if this change is achieved will productivity gradually become more closely
intertwined with the online world.
Africa
will be the testing ground for human-robot coexistence:
I think Africa will be chosen to test the relationship
between artificial intelligence and robots. Robot traffic police were used in
Kinshasa 10 years ago today and people are more likely to obey them because
robots do not take bribes. There is a lot of potential to use artificial
intelligence to solve many problems in Africa and it is very necessary. Because
by 2050, one in four people in the world will be African.
The
consumer will have more protection and power:
Data trusts will be formed to protect consumer data. Consumers can also become more aware of their rights through data trust and data integration. They will know how their data is being used and will be able to negotiate how it will be used and will be able to monitor them. With the help of data, they can be directly involved in the production process, such as a consumer can be directly connected to the farmer through their data trust and can buy the consumer goods of their choice accordingly.
The dollar
will no longer be the global reserve currency:
The dollar is used by many countries around the world
as their reserve currency. But in the future, the digital currency may take the
place of the dollar. Digital currency savings and transfers will all be done
through the internet. Digital currency will be used for various contracts. This
means that the dollar strength of various companies in the United States will
decrease and the power of global, decentralized, and small innovative companies
will increase.
Plastic
and other materials will be made from the tree:
Petroleum has been the building block of all our
products for the last 80 or 90 years. From petroleum, we have made fuel oil,
plastic, medicine, etc. I think the 2020s will be a decade driven by the
discovery of biology. With the help of genetic engineering, we will be able to
create compounds that can be used to create new elements that will make our
lives and economies easier and more prosperous. It has already begun. With the
help of genetic engineering we have now created some replacement products and
behind all this is the ability of computers and artificial intelligence.
The world
will be occupied by Chinese phones:
By 2030, the world's most popular mobile phone brands
will be in China. These phones will have their operating system and the Chinese
phones with these new operating systems will occupy half of the Android market.
Small
businesses will use supercomputers:
There are hundreds of companies that make various
parts for motor vehicle manufacturers. They currently use small computers to
create models of their instruments. These companies are currently doing their
job using computer-aided design (CAD), simulation, etc. But in the future,
their data sets will increase thousands of times which will require more
powerful computers to calculate. And for this, you will need a mini supercomputer. Many places can be connected from any one computer. And then the
supercomputers will be much smaller in size and will require much less power.
Maybe it would be possible to place a mini supercomputer in a single cabinet.
Flying
Car:
In Vahana, Airbus has started their project with a
battery-powered and only one-seater flying car. It can fly without a runway.
Its wings have been shown solely to give a sense of proportion. The second
flying car project is in Dubai, where these helicopters will work as air taxis
to avoid traffic jams in the UAE. These two-seater flying cars are two-seater
and fully controllable. These winged helicopters can take you to any part of
Dubai in just 30 minutes. But if you want to get a taste of science fiction
flying cars, you have to fly to Israel. Made by Urban Aeronautics Fancraft,
these flying cars have no wings, not even a rotor like a helicopter. Before vertical
ascent and descent were possible only by helicopter, but it will also be
possible due to its remarkable aerodynamic design. With a light but very
powerful engine, this future vehicle can travel at a speed of more than 160 km
/ h.
Jetpack:
Many of us want to fly in the sky like birds. He wants
to float in the sky as he wishes. New Zealand's Martin Aircraft Company is
continuing research to provide that facility. This vehicle, which is the same
size as a small car, has a smaller but very powerful fan instead of a jet
engine. With the help of this, you can walk in the space for about half an
hour, if you want to come down, you have to use a parachute. It has been
successfully tested but will take several more years to open to the public.
Cyborg:
In many ways, people have already made their way to
Cyborg. Let's talk about contact lenses, which eliminate the problem of myopia
or hypermetropia. Or a cochlear implant, which has eliminated deafness in the
ear. Even with the help of artificial limbs, people with physical needs can
lead a normal life. But the next challenge is to create artificial limbs, through
which we can feel everything just like normal limbs. Facebook, Elon Musk, and
the US defense agency DARPA are on the list to work with the artificial brain.
Many other organizations have succeeded in controlling prostheses by placing
electrodes in the brain. Scientists at the University of Pittsburgh have
attached a robotic arm to the paralyzed person's sensory cortex, through which
the person can feel the touch of various objects through that hand! This allows
the camera to be attached to the visual cortex at the back of the brain.
Orion's predecessor, the Argus II device, allowed blind people to see black and
white images. Although it is possible to see color scenes with the help of the
Orion device, its capacity is very weak. However, the head of the project.
Greenberg hopes that in the next 20 years, blind people will be able to see
like normal people. Maybe even more so, where it will be possible to zoom
out-zoom in with the help of the camera.
Robot
butler:
Many of us believe that when artificial intelligence
becomes more intelligent than humans, it will easily solve the problems of our
daily lives, or destroy mankind. Whatever the case, AI is about to bring about
a revolutionary change in the world.
However, we have not yet been able to create a robot
that can make a cup of tea and climb the stairs to serve it to us. Indeed, AI
has already surpassed humans in solving chess, Rubik's Cube, or other minor
mathematical problems, but can we
transform this AI into AGI (Artificial General
Intelligence), where robots can think like humans? Where a robot can use
language like a human, think complexly, adapt to new environments, and
understand human emotions in this materialistic world? One person thinks, yes,
we can. And he is Professor Jürgen Schmidhuber, who invented Long Short-Term
Memory (LSTM), which was created using technologies such as Google Voice and
Amazon Echo. Schmidt Huber hopes that within the next 25 years, it will be
possible to transform AI into a human-equivalent AGI
by further improving the neural network, but that will have to wait until 2050.
Quantum
computer:
The invention of the IC chip revolutionized the world
of electronics, making everything smaller, cheaper, and more powerful. To
increase its power, research is being done on ‘Q bit (quantum bit)’. Scientists
at Caltech have already achieved success in quantum computing by storing data
using light. With only one photon enclosed in a memory cell equal to a red
blood cell, the discovery of the quantum chip is only a matter of time. But
creating quantum computers for the public is still a matter of a few decades.
3D
hologram:
What many of us understand by 3D hologram is a
three-dimensional image enclosed on a two-dimensional surface using laser
light. We can easily create these 3D holograms at home using some kits. But now
what scientists mean by 3D hologram is that 3D holograms and this 3D hologram are
not the same. The 3D holograms we know of are small in size can be seen in low
light and cannot be touched by hand. But the 3D holograms that scientists are
currently thinking about, we can see in normal light, we can touch if we want,
and we can move from one place to another. For example, Microsoft's HoloLens.
Here various artificial objects are presented in front of the person's eyes
through the glass visor, which seems real to the person and the person can also
control them through his movements. Many other companies, including Microsoft,
are currently working on this project, and each of them aims to make these
holograms more realistic with a combination of virtual reality, augmented
reality, and mixed reality. As seen in Tom Cruise's Minority Report, being able
to work physically in an office thousands of miles away from home! The
technology to turn this myth into reality has not yet reached the hands of
scientists. There is still a long way to go with this 3D hologram. Laser beams
have always been used to create holograms before, but researchers at the
Technical University of Munich are now using microwave rays emitted from
powerful WiFi routers to create holograms. Since WiFi can penetrate walls and
enter other rooms, they are thinking that it will be easy to see what is going
on inside and outside the house.
Mind-reading
machine:
Mind-reading machines have so far only appeared in
science fiction, but the wait may be over soon. Marcel Just, a psychologist and
professor at Carnegie Mellon University, and his team have been working for a
long time to create mind-reading machines. That's why they are using fMRI or
functional magnetic resonance imaging in the brain. When we talk or think about
something, different patterns appear in our brains. The main goal of Just and
his team is to find out what is going on in our brains by picking up those
patterns using FMRI and analyzing them. "Each of our brains works the same
way, even if we speak different languages," he said.
Conclusion:
Finally, we can say that further development of
information technology in the future will lead to greater localization in the
production of 3D printing, automation, and robotics. If we go to the store and
say we want a pair of pants, right now, with a stripe of jeans and three
pockets, it would be a risk to the fashion industry. Food production will also
be important in the local field. Consumer consumption patterns will also change
as part of efforts to reduce carbon footprint. So, supply chain-based global
business will disappear from many poor countries. Those countries, which are
already in turmoil, will face more poverty. We need to invest in human
infrastructure.
