2. TECHNOLOGY :- Technology is the practical use of scientific
knowledge to solve problems and create innovations. It includes tools,
and processes for achieving goals. From simple tools like hammers to
systems like spacecraft, technology varies in its simplicity and
4. The Premechanical Age:
(3000 B.C.- 1450 A.D.)
The Mechanical Age:
(1450 - 1840.)
The Electromechanical
Age: (1840 - 1940)
The Electronic Age:
(1940 - Present.)
5. THE PREMECHAMICAL AGE :-
Iron Smelting & Forging: Mastering high-heat furnaces and hammering techniques
unlocked the potential of abundant iron ore, leading to stronger tools and weapons.
Spoked Wheel: Lighter and more efficient than solid wheels, this innovation
transformed transportation (chariots, carts) and warfare.
Textile Advancements: Improved looms and spinning techniques led to finer linen and
wool fabrics, boosting trade and social differentiation.
Glassblowing: This innovative technique created decorative and functional glassware,
used for storage, lighting, and even scientific experimentation.
Writing Systems: Alphabetic and syllabic scripts like Phoenician and Brahmi emerged,
facilitating communication, record-keeping, and cultural exchange.
Coinage: Standardizing currency with minted coins streamlined trade and commerce,
making economic transactions more efficient.
Shipbuilding: Advanced shipbuilding techniques with iron nails and improved sails
enabled wider maritime exploration and trade networks.
6. THE MECHANIACAL AGE :-
The Machine Age is an era that includes the early-to-mid 20th
century, sometimes also including the late 19th century. An
approximate dating would be about 1880 to 1945.
Considered to be at its peak in the time between the first
and second world wars, the Machine Age overlaps with the late
part of the Second Industrial Revolution (which ended around
1914 at the start of World War I) and continues beyond it until
1945 at the end of World War II
The Digital Revolutionized the intellectual model of the machine
age founded in the mechanical and heralding a new more
complex model of high technology.
7. The Marvels of Mechanical Age
Steam Engine: pioneered by
James Watt, played a pivotal
role in powering machinery
and revolutionizing industries
such as manufacturing,
transportation, and mining.
Canals and Dams:
Construction of canals and
dams for transportation and
energy generation further
contributed to the
development of infrastructure.
8. THE ECLECTROMECHANICAL AGE :-
Electrochemistry is a discipline of wide scientific and technological interest.
Scientifically, it explores the electrical properties of materials and especially the
interfaces between different kinds of matter.
Technologically, electrochemistry touches our lives in many ways that few fully
appreciate; for example, materials as diverse as aluminum, nylon, and bleach
are manufactured electrochemically, while the batteries that power all manner
of appliances, vehicles, and devices are the products of electrochemical
research.
It also serves as a source of material of interest to scientists and technologists in
various fields throughout academia, industry, and government – chemists,
physicists, engineers, environmentalists, materials scientists, biologists, and
those in related endeavors.
9. THE ELECTRONIC AGE:-
The electronic age of technology marks the era where electronic
components and digital systems revolutionized communication,
computation, and information processing. It encompasses the
development of computers, integrated circuits, and the
widespread use of electronic devices in various aspects of daily
life.
Electronic age or Digital age is same thing as “modernism” and
modernism can simply be defined as an overall socially
progressive trend of thought that affirms the power of human
beings creates, improve and reshape their environment.

11. The Impact of Technology
Technology has had a profound impact on our
lives, both positive and negative.
Positive impacts include:
• Improved communication and
collaboration
• Increased access to information and
education
• New medical treatments and technologies
• More efficient and productive workplaces
• New forms of entertainment and leisure
Negative impacts include:
• Job displacement
• Privacy concerns
• Digital divide
• Addiction to technology
13. ( Type 1 ) Civilization
That’s how the
planetary civilization (
Type 1 ) looks like, full
control over its planet .
This civilization is
committed to maximizing
the utilization of its
planetary resources,
harnessing every
potential source of energy
to fulfill its needs and
propel advancements.
14. (Type -2 )
Civilization
That’s how the stellar
civilization (Type 2 ) looks
like, full control over its star
and every celestial body in its
solar system .
This civilization is set on
utilizing the resources across
its solar system,
encompassing asteroids and
planets, with the goal of
taking command over its star
and harnessing 100% of its
energy.
15. (Type - 3) Civilization
This civilization intends to circumvent other solar systems and assert
control over its star, planets, and asteroids, exploiting all feasible
resources. It aims to channel a substantial amount of energy to power
its technological advancements, taking control over the galaxy.
