Microprocessors are electronic circuits or chips that process data and perform calculations to control computers and electronic devices. The Internet of Things involves connecting computing devices in everyday objects to send and receive data. While smart devices save time, they can reduce social interactions, though technology also enables interaction at a distance through voice/video calls and social media.

Microprocessors: It is an electronic circuit or chip that makes
the computer or electronic device work by processing data,
performing calculations and issuing instructions based on the
results

The devices have, however, encouraged social interactions at a
distance. Using tablets and smartphones, people are able to
communicate and interact with friends who don't live close by
using:
voice and text messages
social networking sites
emails
video calls
electronic- and web-conferencing.
Social interaction
• In home
Smart devices save time and create more leisure time.

Eg., people do not have to do the washing up. But


usually the washing up was done by two or three people who could talk and interact as they were doing a physical
task.
• If you can ask a smart assistant to do something, then you are less likely to talk to another person and ask them to do
it and engage in a social interaction
Smart devices create a shopping list and transmit it to a shop and the items can then be delivered. People do not have
to speak to each other. The 'shopper' does not have to leave their house and travel to a shop. No social interactions on
the journey and no social interactions in the shop. A lack of social interaction can cause mental health problems.

Smartphones are usually blamed for the loss of social interaction because more people are inclined to communicate
using them rather than face-to-face encounters. Even a video call is less of a social interaction than meeting face-to-
face.

ECU(Electronic Control Unit): It is a device responsible for overseeing, regulating and altering
the operation of a car’s electronic systems.

Vehicle safety:

Safety related functions of ECU are:

Anti-locking braking systems and electronic stability control prevents accidents


Video camera and adaptive cruise control (ACC) maintains distance between objects and
applies brakes automatically if it is slows down.
TRAFFIC SYSTEMS:

Intelligent transport systems:


Improves safety and efficiency of traffic movement through transmitting real time
information. It uses sensors to collect data from sensors such as cameras to
monitor the amount of traffic, travel speed and traffic jams in various locations.

Autonomous vehicles: It is a self-driving vehicles which is capable of sensing the


environment and operating without human involvement.
