Digital technology today is evolving rapidly at a fast pace. Such evolution is enabling faster change and progression in the way of life. Humanity is taking huge steps to get accustomed to the evolving digital transformation. Practically, there would be new technologies emerging every once in a while, as well as a few older ones evolving simultaneously.
Here are some new digital technologies to watch out for.
Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning
Artificial intelligence is not something new, it has already received gossip in the past decade and yet now it continues to be one of the new technologies because of its news advancements that are bringing notable effects on the way of life. AI is known for its dominance in image and speech recognition, apps navigation, smartphone personal assistants, GPS and so much more.
Machine Learning is the subset of AI. This technology is also being applied in all kinds of sectors. Machine Learning enforces power to the computer systems with the ability to learn. It focuses on teaching computers to learn by themselves with the help of provided data and then make accurate predictions.
Blockchain technology is gaining supremacy as one of the trending technologies in relation to cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin. Blockchain offers security that is useful in many ways. Blockchain is such data that can only be added but can not omit or change. Not being able to change the previous blocks is what makes it secure. With blockchain technology, there is no need for a trusted third party to take care of the transactions.
The IoT is focused on connecting everything in the world to the internet. IoT is a system of interconnected computing devices, digital and mechanical machines, objects, and people that are provided with unique identifications and the ability to transmit data over a network without human intervention. Once something is connected to the internet it can now send and receive information to access certain data.
5G services are expected to reorganize our lives where 3G and 4G technologies have already enabled us to browse the internet, use data-driven services, and so much more.5G technology is expected to revolutionize the way of life by allowing services that depend on advanced technologies like AR and VR and cloud-based gaming services. It is also expected to be used in industries that would help in improving safety management and smart grid control and retail.
5G services are expected to establish worldwide with more than 50 operators offering services in about 30 countries by the end of 2021.
PWAs are websites that look like and also give the feeling of apps. This technology enables the users to access all the information required by simply visiting the website instead of downloading any app. It enables the creation of websites that function almost the same way as apps do. To be precise PWAs are the best option for those who don't have the budget to develop a separate app for their business.
Motion design or motion user interface is a lot more attractive and engaging as compared to static design. It helps in many different aspects, such as
Augmented reality is an improved version of the real physical world. Virtual Reality engulfs the users in an environment while AR enhances the environment. AR is achieved via the use of digital visual elements, or other sensory stimuli like sound that is delivered via technology. With digital transformation, AR has become a growing trend among all mobile companies. Apart from gaming, these technologies are also used for training, like VirtualShip, simulation software that is used for training Navy, Army, ship captains.
Quantum Computing has the prospective to transfigure computation by making certain types of obstinate problems solvable. A few large companies and small start-ups now access quantum computers composed of several tens of qubits among which some of them are even accessible to the public through the cloud.
Quantum computers process information in a different way than classical computers. Unlike traditional computers that operate on binary bits where information is processed in the form of zeros or ones, quantum computers transmute information via qubits (quantum bits) that can exist either as one or zero or both instantaneously.
Voice assistant is a system that understands natural language voice commands and performs the tasks ordered by the user. It is also known as a digital assistant and also virtual assistant. For instance, Siri, Alexa, Bixby, Cortana, Google's assistant. Voice assistants are now present in smartphones enabling the owners to lead an easier life by completing tasks via voice assistants.
Just like AI, RPA is another technology that helps in automating jobs without human intervention. Business processes such as processing transactions, interpreting applications, even dealing with data, and replying to emails are automatically done with the use of RPA.
