CHAPTER 2 - The Innovation Of Technology

Chapter 2

Technological innovation means making a changer or introduce a new technology for new service and new ways that are more beneficial and easier for bussiness. Technological innovation also often used to produce a product and method of working of machine.


(For Example of innovation of technology )




1. Ultraprivate Smartphones

As concerns over personal privacy grow, particularly in terms of new technology, a Maryland-based company seeks to provide an alternative. Silent Circle, encrypts clients’ voice calls, text messages, and file attachments. Encryption prevents potential eavesdroppers from listening in on phone calls and protects metadata. Silent Circle has big plans for the future including a secure smartphone called Blackphone. Blackphone will utilize encryption tools currently used by Silent Circle, as well as other software that will help secure data.


2.  Microscale 3-D Printing
The potential of 3-D printing technology has many people excited about new applications. But current printers have important limitations. Up until recently, most 3-D printers can only use plastic. A group of researchers at Harvard University, led by Jennifer Lewis, have started to develop new 3-D printer inks. Her team prints intricate objects using materials that are chosen based on their mechanical properties, electrical conductivity, or optical traits. Eventually new inks will enable a wider variety of functions, including artificial organ creation.


3. Kogeto Dot

The Kogeto Dot is a neat clip-on lens for your iPhone 4 or 4S that turns your device into a panoramic video recorder.
After filming, you upload the clip to the company's Flash-based player that lets you pull and drag the video so you can view it from all angles.



4. Solid state drives
A solid-state drive is a data storage device that uses solid-state memory to store persistent data with the intention of providing access in the same manner of a traditional block i/o hard disk drive.
SSDs are distinguished from traditional magnetic disks such as hard disk drives or floppy disk, which are electromechanical devices containing spinning disks and movable read/write heads.
In contrast, SSDs use microchips which retain data in non-volatile memory chips and contain no moving parts.
Compared to electromechanical HDDs, SSDs are typically less susceptible to physical shock, are silent, have lower access time and latency, but are more expensive per gigabyte.
