Navigation: Smart Glasses Make Driving Directions A Snap

Push technology allows for instant transmission of information and efficient server connections. It is used by websites to continuously update content in real-time like news tickers, and by web apps to notify users of new content. The three types of SaaS are web hosting/e-commerce, communication platforms, and customer relationship management. The major difference between VR and AR is that VR replaces reality while AR adds information on top of existing reality. The three main components of a VR system are the VR engine/computer, input devices, and output devices. Companies are using AR for navigation with smart glasses and for business by allowing face-to-face projections to improve engagement and verify identities.

1.What are two applications of push technology?

There are two major advantages to push technology:

It is an instant service for transmitting information.

It is efficient in terms of initiating server connections.

Websites employ push technology to continually update content in real-time, such as a breaking news
ticker on a news website.

Web applications often use push technology to notify users of new content, such as a tab that appears
on a social media site indicating that new posts are available.

2.What are three types or forms of the SaaS model?

· Web Hosting and E-Commerce — From content management systems (CMS) and message boards to
web hosting and shopping carts, SaaS applications enable business on the web

· Communication Platforms — Instant messaging and file sharing software to enhance collaboration for
teams based out of multiple locations

· Customer Relationship Management (CRM) — For managing customer information, tracking sales, and
automating marketing functions

3.What is one major difference between virtual and augmented reality?

Virtual reality and augmented reality accomplish two very different things in two very different ways,
despite the similar designs of the devices themselves. VR replaces reality, taking you somewhere else.
AR adds to reality, projecting information on top of what you're already seeing.

4.What are three major components of a virtual reality system?

The major components of the hardware are the VR engine or computer system, input devices and

output devices.

5.What are two examples of companies or organizations that are using AR? For what purposes is AR
being used?

Navigation: Smart glasses make driving directions a snap

Using a GPS while traveling to a new place is often troublesome – and potentially dangerous if
distracting. To tackle this situation, AR has come up with smart glasses that have sensors which enable
drivers to keep a track of a route he/she is taking without looking around.

Enterprises: Businesses can connect with clients face-to-face

AR has also enhanced enterprise working experiences. By creating an AR projection of the person on call
at the other end, the technology is making users feel as if they are talking directly. This way, it is
improving the engagement and productivity of the process. Besides, the technology is playing a crucial
role in scanning and gathering all the online information about an individual so as to verify his
background before getting into a deal.

6.What are three features that QR codes offer compared to conventional bar codes?

I. A large amount of data needed

The amount of data a QR code can hold over a barcode is arguably the most significant difference. QR
codes are two-dimensional as opposed to their one-dimensional barcode counterparts. This means that
QR codes can contain much more data.

II. Uniquely identifying items

Barcodes on items we purchase are not unique. This means that if you have 3 of the same item, they will
have the same barcode. This is a problem if you wish to use your items’ barcodes to track assets
individually. Instead, QR codes can be used to give a unique identity to assets.

III. Robustness and ease of scanning

We all expect the scanning of an asset’s tag to be very quick. As QR codes can be read from any
direction, they are much easier and quicker to scan.In addition, due to the error correction capabilities
inherent in QR codes, they offer superior robustness against dirt and scratches. Even if your QR code is
scratched, it has a higher chance of successfully being scanned. This is especially important when it
comes to equipment tracking and management, as equipment will experience a lot of wear and tear
throughout its life, as will the asset tags you’re using.

7.Why is face recognition technology as a biometric measure fundamentally different than other
biometric measures such as fingerprint or retina identification?

Face recognition technology as a biometric measure is fundamentally different than other biometric
measures such as fingerprint or retina identification because an individual does not need to opt in to be
recognized by the system. Any camera in a public place can take a picture of a person and recognize him
or her with a high degree of accuracy. For that reason, security and privacy concerns are more
challenging and careful consideration must be given to this technology’s potential use.

8. What are the four options when using cloud computing?

The four options when using cloud computing are:

 Public
 Private
 Hybrid
 Community clouds
