Autonomous vehicles and drones are technologies that are transforming the way we think about transportation and logistics. These vehicles use sensors and advanced algorithms to move and drive without human intervention, while drones can be used for various operations, including package delivery, surveying, and monitoring. In the future, these technologies will become more widespread and integrated into various industries, such as logistics, agriculture, and emergency services. Autonomous vehicles and drones have the potential to increase efficiency, reduce costs, and improve safety, making them a promising technology for the future. However, there are also challenges, such as regulation and safety concerns.
Biometric Authentication Technology
https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/abstract/document/9360794
Biometric authentication technology uses unique physical attributes, such as fingerprints, facial recognition, or iris scans, to authenticate a user’s identity. This technology can improve security and convenience for various operations, such as mobile devices, financial transactions, and access control systems. Since physical characteristics are much harder to fake or copy, this technology can also provide a higher level of security than traditional password-based systems. In the future, we expect to see wider adoption of biometric authentication technology as it continues to enhance and become more convenient. However, there are also concerns regarding privacy and the potential misuse of biometric data, which must be addressed as technology advances.
Edge Computing and Edge Device
https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/abstract/document/8763885
Edge computing is a distributed computing paradigm that brings computation and data storage closer to the end-users or edge devices. As more devices, such as smartphones and IoT devices, are generating massive amounts of data that need to be processed in real-time, this technology has become increasingly important. It also allows for faster data processing and reduces the need for data to be transmitted to centralized cloud data centers. Edge devices, such as gateways and routers, act as intermediaries between the devices and the cloud, providing local computing power and storage. In the future, we can expect edge computing and edge devices to become even more prevalent as the demand for real-time processing and low latency continues to grow.
