Sharing is Caring

he ICT (Information and Communication Technology) industry is at the forefront of technological innovation, with new inventions and advancements emerging at a rapid pace. From artificial intelligence (AI) to the expansion of 5G networks, the latest technologies are transforming how businesses operate and how people interact with digital systems. Cutting-edge developments like quantum computing, blockchain, edge computing, and Internet of Things (IoT) devices are revolutionizing industries ranging from healthcare and finance to entertainment and manufacturing. These technologies not only improve efficiency and connectivity but also open up new possibilities for solving complex global challenges. This article highlights the most significant recent technology inventions in the ICT industry and their potential impact on the future

Latest technology inventions in cloud computing will greatly influence how we use our mobile devices and computers.

Cloud computing is where file storage and tasks on the computer are performed and stored in another place.

By the use of internet, you connect to a service that has infrastructure, architecture and software to manage any storage or task requirement at low cost.

The benefit of cloud computing is that it eliminates the expense and difficult of upgrading, maintaining and scaling your own computer software and hardware. This increases the speed, efficiency and resources. Finally, the computer’s processing speed, software applications, memory capacity and maintenance requirements are reduced.

You can access and store any type or size of file, develop or use applications, play games, render videos, make scientific calculations, word process or anything you may want by using a Smartphone.

Cloud computing can be compared to how utility provides electricity. It has the infrastructure, applications, architecture, resources and expertise to generate the service for you. You only need to connect.

Companies like IBM, Google and Microsoft are heavily investing in the research and development of cloud technology.

Car GPS tracking

This is common in most vehicles on our roads today.  The technology provides tracking and navigation services to the drivers. Latest inventions have made car gps tracking systems more sophisticated. This allows for a wide range of additional uses.

An example is the Smartbox technology. This shows how the system is being used to minimize car insurance costs. Insurance companies provide ‘pay as you drive’ car insurance to those who have a comprehensive record of their driving habits.

In New York City, city officials are considering how the car gps tracking can be used as ‘drive smart’ technology.

A tracking system that integrates with traffic information can give the drivers the ability to choose routes in real time. These are less congested, fuel efficient, shorter or faster.

The recorded routing system could be used to reward or penalize drivers by increasing or lowering the related licensing fees or by calculating the mileage based on road use fees.

The car gps tracking system will soon replace the gasoline/petroleum tax. This is because the revenues will go down as more vehicles become less dependent on fossil fuels.

Smartbox technology

The smartbox technology will benefit good drivers as most insurance companies try to implement the technology. The insurance rates will be reduced significantly.

This is similar to the black boxes deployed on planes. It records how the car is driven and this lead to cheaper car insurance for responsible car owners.

This device is connected to the electronics system in the car. It is used to collect a wide range of information such as speed, time, cornering, braking, location and acceleration.

The data is wirelessly transferred in real-time to the insurance company servers. It provides the profile of when, how and where the car was driven. The profile is used to compare the insurance rates and reward the low risk driving behavior with cheap rates.

The aim of the invention is to replace the practice of grouping drivers into group behavior to determine insurance coverage. This will allow vehicle owners to provide proof that their driving behavior doesn’t match with the demographic pattern.

This information can be viewed online. The insurance rate is then calculated according to the driving profile.
