WHAT IS DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY ?
Digital technology definition includes all electronic tools, automatic
systems, technological devices and resources that generate, process or store
information. The difference between analogue and digital technology is that in
analogue technology, data is converted into electric rhythms of multiple amplitudes,
while in digital technology; information is converted into the binary system, i.e.
zero or one, where every bit is the symbol of two amplitudes.

WHEN DID IT ALL START ?

HISTORY
OF
DIGITAL
TECHNOLOGY American engineers started creating digital technology in the mid-
20th century. Their methods included mathematical concepts as recommended
in the 17th century by German mathematician, Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, who
suggested a system of binary computing. His invention stimulated by such
numerical codes as American Standard Code for Information Interchange (ASCII)
that determined objects with digits. Digital technology is a basic two-way
method. Digitized data is recorded in binary code of permutations of the binary
digits 0 and 1, also known as bits, which show text and images. Digital
technology allows huge levels of information to be flattened on small storage
devices that can be simply conserved and conveyed. Digitization also accelerates
the data transmission speeds. Digital technologies have altered the ways of how
people communicate, learn, and work.

INDUSTRIAL
REVOLUTION
1ST INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION
2ND INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION
Began in the 19th
century through the discovery
of electricity and assembly
line production.
3RD INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION
Began in the ’70s in the 20th
century through partial
automation using memory-
programmable
controls and computers.
4TH INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION
Also known as Industry 4.0, is a fusion
of advances in artificial intelligence
(AI), robotics, the Internet of Things
(IoT), genetic engineering, quantum
computing, and more.
Began in the 18th century through
the use of steam power and
mechanization of production.

ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES

ADVANTAGES
OF
DIGITAL
TECHNOLOGY
ACCESS TO INFORMATION
We can compare prices across the
world. Also, incorporating digital
technology into the business can cut off
half of the operating expenses. Instead,
digital technology reduces cost and
increases productivity.
COST EFFICIENCY
Digital technology can help us
access information from the
internet without any hassle.
With digital technology, the
path to get information is
simple.
BANKING
Users can track their cash
inflow outflow through online
banking. We can also arrange
money transfers and bills
payment from it.
TRANSPORTATION
There are lots of websites representing flight
tracking, route tracking, and maps. Also, these
days’ passports contain digital chips that have
all the information of an individual. It enables
self-service machines to fasten the process of
checking in and passing through customs.

DISADVANTAGES
OF
DIGITAL
TECHNOLOGY
WORK OVERLOAD
With the development of digital
technology, face to face conversations,
socialization is rare these days. People can call,
communicate, look at each other through the
internet, the situation will lead to social
isolation.
LACK OF SOCIALIZATION
Analyzing a large amount of
data requires extra effort,
dedication, attention creating
isolation and distress to
employees.
SECURITY OF INFORMATION
The stored information, data of
individuals, and companies’ are
always vulnerable to theft.
Criminals or hackers can get
access to this data.
LOSING JOB OPPORTUNITIES
The internet allows employees to do the same
task at minimum wages. The situation will
diminish the job opportunities for workers. Their
job opportunities will get replaced by digital
technology.
