With the announcement
of the I-phone 6 and the apple watch, we are witnessing great
advancements in technology that will not only streamline any business but it
will make it more efficient more creative within the business, providing the
tools, to work smarter, producing better result and staying ahead of the
competition.
It
was not that long ago when Laptops came out, they were heavy, had slow
processors, you needed it's own suitcase on wheels just to travel with, and
setting up an office area dedicated to that big laptop was part of every day
reality.
Now
jump forward to the present all of what was then futuristic is now a reality,
new ways to use computers have proliferated in recent years, touch screens have
become popular on smart phones and tablets such as the I Pad. So let’s take a
look at some of the advancements, how about making an old dusty laptop futuristic, how? By taking a little rectangular device and placing it next to
your old laptop it becomes a touch free wonder, it is 200 times more sensitive
than a mouse, works in 3-D and extends up to 200 feet of workable area. How
about using your eyes to control your laptop and gadgets making it even faster
to use, performing such things as moving text with your retina, and for gamers
an invaluable tool.
How about taking your office anywhere
with you by rolling it up and setting up your office virtually anywhere,
imagine the idea that a headset could control the functions of a laptop and
gadgets with your thoughts, something from a science-fiction movie, or
taking your laptop or gadgets in the form of a pen or on your wrist and placing
it on any surface and it becomes hologram, projecting a full functioning
screen and keyboard.
With such fierce competition in the
technological world comes innovation pushing the envelope beyond the
imagination creating new ways to make the laptop and or gadgets more productive
with better battery life, faster smarter processors, new design, better user
interface, better communication, and more storage, all combined with sleek and
stylish futuristic design.
Now the definition of what constitutes
technology is changing no matter how you look at it with laptop computers and
other gadgets, they are getting more convenient more capable as well as
environmentally friendly, yes in every way evolutionary is what comes to my
mind, this in turn levels the playing field for many businesses including the
entertainment industry, with the right technology in the right hand of a
creativity individual amazing opportunities opens up and the world is within
easy reach. So the future is bright and the future is now.
