Communication has grown significantly over the past decades. The world was once unable to carry on conversation using voice telephones. Just as people once rode horses instead of driving vehicles, communications have improved drastically over the years.
The inceptions of the cellular telephone, wireless internet and other technologies have given people the ability to contact and communicate with others from virtually anywhere in the world and at any time.
A new foldable phone which much resembles a Swiss Army Knife provides a gaming device and multimedia player of the future for consumers. This product uses a high resolution screen that is flexible enough to fold in half when the device is closed and not being used.
The use of organic light emitting diode allows users to customize the phone’s look with images that are displayed or with gaming buttons or the keypad which is located on the inside of the phone. When this phone is closed it is approximately the size of a small post-it note.
Another benefit is that it opens from two different sides. One serves as the phone, email and IM servicing unit and the other acts as a game console, photo viewer and music and video player. To ensure safety that there is no one else using the phone, there is also a built in biometric optical scanner.
This is definitely a communication device of the future.
Since thieves typically prefer cellular phones and laptop computers, a group of scientific researchers at the VVT Technical Research Center in Finland is currently developing a product that will leave thieving criminals in the lurch.
The plan is to equip cellular phones and notebook computers with specialized sensors and software that has the ability to analyze and save the walking patterns of their owners. If the phone or computer determines that it is suddenly being carried by someone with a stride that is unfamiliar it will go into a lockdown mode until the correct password is entered.
Once this technology is introduced and users begin implementing it thieves will find taking these gadgets virtually pointless.
Another wonderful communication device of the future is being developed at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Media Lab. Researchers are developing a fully functional laptop that is designed to be sold for approximately $100 so that children in poor or underdeveloped nations will have the ability to access the internet.
The laptop will use a dual mode display that costs around $35, much like the ones found in inexpensive DVD players. The operating system will be small with only 1 GB of storage and the device will be able to be plugged into a typical wall outlet or charged by a crank driven battery. It will also connect to the internet using a wireless card.
These devices are definitely going to be a communication technology of the future and give people in lower developed countries the ability to communicate with others far away via the internet.
While some of the communication devices of the future are far from being released to consumers, it does give some idea of how the trends are heading.
Communication is a major topic in society. With the many steps that have been taken to bring the world the communication devices of today, it stands to reason that as more and more researchers and scientists work to develop newer devices, the technology of the future could be quite substantial.
