Impact of emerging technologies
Artificial intelligence (AI) biometrics
many fingerprint identification systems falsely reject a person's fingerprints when the scanned fingerprints are checked against a person's fingerprints
AI biometrics uses
dynamic profiling
to solve this problem
this system learns by using AI about a person's fingerprints on every scan
the system learns from the different alignment, so it's able to match fingerprints to those stored in the database
facial recognition
same problem
computerised facial-recognition systems are confused by the soft biometric changes
to solve ti
new systems use AI to learn from scanning a number of faces and pick out the soft biometric features
with this, the system can still recognaise faces and cross-reference these attributes with corresponding images stored on the database
Robotics
before it appeared mostly in the manufacturing industry
no human intervention was required
now robotics is
evolving
and
apprearing
in
other areas
apart of industry
drones
unmanned flying devices
used by
military
reconnaissance missions
civilians
surveying the landscape
investigating weather phenomena
search and recue/fire fighting in natural disasters
surgical procedures
robotic surgery allows surgeons to perform complex procedures
with
more precision
than normal surgeon techniques
they have robotics equipped with a camera arm and several interactive machnical arms
more flexibility
more control
Vision enhancement
Low-vision enhancement systems (LVES)
uses
video technology
through a
headset
connected to a computer
this allows images to be projected insede the headset in front of the eyes
with this, objects are bought closer for examination
Night vision enhancement (NVE)
amplifies infrared light
and
visible light
so that an image con still be seen in apparent darkness
the light source is captured and passed through a image intensifier tube
the tube converts light in electrons
the electrons passed to another tube, where they produce more electrons
then, at the end of the tube there's a screen convered with phosphor dots that glow when the electrons collide with them
As a result, an image is formed which is clearer than the original
Quantum cryptography
science
of making a
message unintelligible
to
any unauthorised user
the technique is called encryption
there are many methods of cryptography
but they have limited life as compuers are becoming faster at number crunching
based on the use of photons (lights) and their physical quantum properties to produce a vurtually unbreakable cryptography sytem
helps to protect the security of data which is transmitted over fibre-optic cables
technology relies on the fact that photons oscillate on various directions and produce a sequence of random bits (0s and 1s) across the optical network
this is based on the laws of physics
computer-assisted translation (CAT)
type of
language translator
uses
specific software
to
help
in the
translation process
uses 2 tools
terminology databases
linguistic databases
that grow and learn from the translations being carried out before
CAT software are
more accurate than
the
free online translators
translation memories
automatically insert known translaions for certain words, phrases or sentences
3-D and holographic imaging
holography
technology that allows 3-D images to be produced (holograms)
involves
source of laser light
interference of light
light diffraction
light intensity recording
when holographic image rotated
it appears to move like the original object, so also appearing to be 3-D
hologram produce by
splitting a laser beam
half of the light (called object beam) is reflected off the object on a photographic plate
the holographic image appears where the two lights meet en the photographic plate
the other half (called reference beam) is reflected off a mirror on the same photographic plate
hologram's applications
engineering design (CAD)
architecture
simulations
medical imaging
cinema
gaming
advertising
holographic television
holographic computer memories
optical computers
Virtual reality
artificial environment created by software
user makes use of
data goggles
sensor suits
get feeling of reality
data gloves
helmets
VR used in
education
entertainment
military applications
healthcare
fashion
heritage
business
real estate
