INTRODUCTION TO LATEST TECHNOLOGY
Technology is important in our daily life. It has a direct impact on the way we communicate with one other
and learn new things. Especially the year 2020 was very much instrumental in introducing people to adapt
the latest technologies.

BLOCKCHAIN TECHNOLOGY
What is block chain?
Blockchain is a distributed database that maintains
a continuously growing list of ordered records,
called blocks. These blocks are linked using
cryptography. Each block contains a cryptographic
hash of the previous block, a timestamp, and
transaction data.
QUANTUM COMPUTING TECHNOLOGY
What is quantum computing?
Quantum Computing: is a process that uses the laws of
quantum mechanics to solve problems too large or complex
for traditional computers. Quantum computers rely on
qubits to run and solve multidimensional quantum
algorithms.
CLOUD COMPUTING TECHNOLOGY
What is cloud computing?
Cloud computing is defined as storing and
accessing of data and computing services
over the internet. Cloud computing
technology gives users access to storage,
files, software, and servers through their
internet devices: computers, smartphones,
tablets, and wearables. Examples are
Google cloud, Google drive, Dropbox and
many more.
What is AI?
Artificial Intelligence (AI): refers to
computer systems capable of
performing complex tasks that
historically only human could do, such
as reasoning, making decisions, or
solving problems. Examples include,
recommendation algorithms,
ChartGPT, Chatbots, E-payments and
many more.
ARTI
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE TECHNOLOGY
SUPR APP TECHNOLOGY
What is super app?
A super app is a mobile or web application that
combines multiple services into one platform,
sometimes called multi-service tech platforms.
For example, a super app might include social
networking, e-commerce, banking, messaging, food
delivery, transportation features or mini apps that
users can activate as needed.
WEB 3.0 TECHNOLOGY
What is web 3.0?
Web 3.0 is defined as the new and upcoming
interaction of the world wide web, which is a
public network built on distributed ledger
technology and a semantic architecture to enable
decentralization, personalization, immersiveness,
and a token-driven economy.
This guide provides an overview of the future of
the internet and the technologies that will be used
to create it.
DIGITAL IMMUNE SYSTEM TECHNOLOGY
What is digital immune system?
A digital immune system refers to the set of
technologies and processes used to protect digital
systems and networks from cyber attacks. It is
designed to detect and respond to malicious
activity in the same way that the human immune
system recognizes and fights off pathogens.
Examples are network security, cloud security,
application security and many more.
HUMAN AUGMENTATION TECHNOLOGY
What is Human Augmentation?
Human Augmentation refers to technologies
that increase human productivity. It also
improves or restores the human body or mental
capabilities. Its goal is to improve the human
experience in both cognitive and physical ways.
What is Telehealth?
Telehealth, also referred to as telemedicine
or e-medicine, is the remote delivery of
healthcare services over the
telecommunications infrastructure. It allows
healthcare providers to evaluate , diagnose,
inform and treat patients without an in-
person visit. Patients can communicate with
physicians from their homes using their own
personal technology by visiting a dedicated
Telehealth kiosk.
TELEHEALTH TECHNOLOGY
What is voice recognition technology?
Voice recognition technology can be a program
(software) or a standalone device (hardware). However,
what lies at the core of voice tech is the ability to take a
user’s voice as input or a command to either produce a
desirable output or execute a task.
Well known voice assistants
 Amazon’s Alexa
 Google Assistant
 Apple Siri
 Mycroft
VOICE RECOGNITION TECHNOLOGY
