Impact of emerging technologies
Vision enhancement
LOW-VISION ENHANCEMENT SYSTEMS (LVES)
Uses video technology through a headset connected to a computer. The system allows images to be protected inside the headset in front of the eyes
NIGHT VISION ENHANCEMENT (NVE)
Amplifies infrared light and visible light so that an image can still be seen in apparent darkness
Artificial intelligence biometrics
AI: computer science that is focused on creating computer systems that simulate human intelligence
using dynamic profiling
BIOMETRICS: parts of a person's body are used for identification purposes
Examples:
Fingerprints: end of human fingers and thumbs fingerprints are kept in a database. They can be used to match crime scenes.
Eye recognition: analyse the iris
Face recognition: the shapes of individual's faces are analysed
sometimes confused by such soft biometric changes
Voice recognition: pitch tone and frequency of voices
Robotics
Have been around mostly in the manufacturing industry. no human intervention is required
Applications
Use of dornes. these are unmanned flying devices and are mostly used by both the military and civilians
Use of robots in surgical procedures. Robots allow surgeons to perform complex procedures with more precisions, flexibility and control than standard surgical techiniques.
3-D and holographic imaging
It a technique where images are made so they actually have depth. It works by taking two regular 2-D images of the same object and laying one on top of the other
Following applications
Engineering design
Architecture
Simulations
Medical imaging
Cinema
and more
This techonology involves
A source of laser light
Interference of light
Light diffraction
Light intensity recording
The hologram is produced by first splitting a laser beam. The object beam (half of the light) is reflected off the object on to a photographic plate.
The other half is reflected off a mirror and on to the same photographic plate. The holographic image is produced where the 2 lights beams meet on the photographic plate
Impacts of 3-D Imaging
Improved security
Better movie experiences
Greater data storage
Virtual reality
is an artificial environment created by software. The user makes of data goggle, sensor suits, data gloves or helmets to get a feeling of reality
It is usually used in
Training
Education
Games
Healthcare
Sport
Quantum cryptography
Cryptography is the science on making a message unintelligible to any unautorised user
technique called encryption
Based on the use of photons (light) and their physical quantum properties to produce a virtually unbreakable cryptography system
Computer-assisted translation (CAT)
Type of language translator that uses specific software to help in the translation process
Uses 2 tools
Terminology databases: linguistic databases that grow and "learn" from translations being carried out
Translation memories: these automatically insert known translations for certain words, phrases or sentences
