IBM'S VISION OF THE FUTURE(2018)

Sight: A pixel will be worth a thousand words

Recognition systems can pinpoint a face in a crowd. In the future, computer vision might save a life by analyzing patterns to make sense of visuals in the context of big data.

In industries as varied as healthcare, retail and agriculture, a system could gather information and detect anomalies specific to the task—such as spotting a tiny area of diseased tissue in an MRI and applying it to the patient's medical history for faster, more accurate diagnosis and treatment.

Hearing: Computers will hear what matters

Before the tree fell in the forest, did anyone hear it? Sensors that pick up sound patterns and frequency changes will be able to predict weakness in a bridge before it buckles, the deeper meaning of your baby's cry or, yes, a tree breaking down internally before it falls. By analyzing verbal traits and including multi-sensory information, machine hearing and speech recognition could even be sensitive enough to advance dialogue across languages and cultures.

Taste: Digital taste buds will help you eat smarter

The challenge of providing food—whether it's for impoverished populations, people on restricted diets or picky kids—is in finding a way to meet both nutritional needs and personal preferences. In the works: a way to compute "perfect" meals using an algorithmic recipe of favorite flavors and optimal nutrition. No more need for substitute foods when you can have a personalized menu that satisfies both the calorie count and the palate.

Smell: Computers will have a sense of smell

Watch the video
When you call a friend to say how you're doing, your phone will know on the full story. Soon, sensors will detect and distinguish odors: a chemical, a biomarker, even molecules in the breath that affect personal health. The same smell technology, combined with deep learning systems, could troubleshoot operating-room hygiene, crops' soil conditions or a city's sanitation system before the human nose knows there's a problem

how make a good blog post!!

Most of us write blog for very many different reasons, but the sole purpose stands on the fact that we want to gain some attraction and popularity. The best way to do that is to be the best at what you do. The art of writing a famous blog is not an easy task, it takes time and patience, it is so because blogs are one of the fastest-growing means of mass communication, they have gained a lot of attention since the 2000 and they are a now becoming a serious rival for traditional media like newspaper and other mass media. So here the few tips that I think will result in a good blog post if followed thoroughly: 1. As the old saying goes “plan well before you do anything”, first choose what type of blog you want to create. Have a rock solid idea about your main theme. The main success of the blog lies in the fact that you should consider your blog as an extension of yourself. Your blog identifies who you are. It exposes the person who you are on ...

Next Generation E Paper Technology.

E-paper technology is designed in such a way to mimic the appearance of ordinary paper. E-paper consists of thin electronic display, unlike ordinary display it reflects sunlight that gives the readers a much more legible text to read. Electrophoretic display: E-paper technology consists E-ink suspened between two transpare nt electrode layers. E-ink capsules are made of titanium oxide which are optically reflecting, when voltage is applied some particles move to viewing side of the paper thus causing the reflection of light it appears white If the particles move to the rear side of the display dark colored moves up front and hence it appears black,thus alternating the voltage a pixel is formed and hence the image. Further different types of colors can be obtained by placing suitable color filters color filters above the spheres Electrowetting: Electrowetting displays co...

Google Drive

hey guys have you come across these words cloud storage, cloud computing, cloud apps etc.., well here is an little interesting sneak peak into what they really mean...etc A cloud storage is virtual space on the internet where all your data will be stored on various servers all over the world. The best example being your gmail account. Google has its own cloud storage called Google drive, which was earlier knows as Google docs, was launched in April 2012. Google drive is much more advanced, efficient and user-friendly compared to other cloud storage facilities like Dropbox, Box.net, Microsoft, Amazon. A Google Drive user can store all most anything that he needs it to be in very safe place, for a long time. Three unique features of Google drive: 1.It s upports many file formats. Some of them being Image files (.JPEG, .PNG, .GIF, .TIFF, .BMP) Video files (WebM, .MPEG4, .3GPP, .MOV, .AVI, .MPEGPS...
