This is a highly interesting development in the housing industry. If this technology is going to be used to create entire neighborhoods for those less fortunate, could the current process of contracting and building houses soon be taken over by 3D printing entirely?

Scott P Winter commented on the post, Ubers autonomous vehicle kill pedestrian, why did it fail?, on the site MIS4596 SEC 002 Spring 2018 1 year, 8 months ago
After an incident like this, autonomous vehicles definitely have a ways to go before they can enter the population in greater numbers. This incident seemed to happen at such a quick speed that it may have been unavoidable, but Uber needs to do a bit more work to make sure no pedestrians–no matter how much reaction time–are hit by these vehicles.

As a social media user, it is bothersome that my information could be taken and used for political or other purposes, especially from a site that exists primarily for socialization. The overwhelming majority of people that you meet today have some sort of social media presence, each with information that could be breach and leaked to entities that…[Read more]

Long lines and waits have been commonplace for many years for security checks at major events in China. A facial recognition system currently in development may change that according to CEO Robin Li Yanhong […]

I believe facial recognition will have many uses in the near future, and can bring a whole new level of security and added value to the areas it is implemented. With that being said, I also think due to it being such a new technology it brings a lot of risk, and uncertainty that many immediately associate with fear and identities being hacked. I believe once the technology has gone through the early stages of its development and has worked out the bugs, many people will become accustomed to it and proceed with their daily lives. So yes, I believe its positive impacts will surpass the potential negative impacts.
-
The use of facial recognition will definitely improve the efficiency and have the potential to raise the level of reliability of screening if such technology is sophisticated. In this case, suspects may be more afraid of exposing to the public, which will eventually help the society with safety concerns. However, in the meantime, high-tech crimes will emerge and the security department has to improve its needed skills and technology to cope with.
-
The official use of facial recognition technology in government is more comfortable than some private companies like Apple. As a result of huge population in China, there is always long line when checking in customs. The combination of facial recognition technology and fingerprint recognition has already been used in the system when people pass the customs, and it is really quick than a officer work station.

It sounds like a noble concept. If Facebook can use this to monitor the behavior of its users it could potentially hinder certain users from doing something harmful to themselves or others.

Scott P Winter commented on the post, Uber wants to start flying you to your destination, on the site MIS4596 SEC 002 Spring 2018 1 year, 9 months ago
It would certainly be interesting if Uber was to progress with this idea as it would likely lead to a continuation of its success in the transportation industry. It would be helpful for passengers, but the dangers are also apparent as air travel will always bring safety concerns. This especially holds true if the crafts are self-flying.

In a project entitled the Human Verifiable Computing project, VTT Technical Research Center of Finland used augmented and virtual reality to develop solutions that build trust between people and systems […]

With this type of technology changing and advancing everyday the possibilities are only limited by what we can create and understand. Having layers of protection using virtual and augmented reality adds security value that we never had before, and allows for customization for each user. I could definitely see the sensory feedback being used in a warehouse where employees have to pick items from pallets all over and it could have a HUD with the route to their next pick item. I believe the mixture of human senses and technology is definitely worth developing as their are possibilities in fields like healthcare and construction and many more.

I think another key behavior to be aware of as a presenter is to be mindful of your body language. If a presenter starts fidgeting or has poor body language it can be a distraction to the audience and take away from the presentation.

Steve Jobs’ presentations and Apple’s overall marketing strategy share many of the same features in that they are both simple, aesthetically pleasing, and easy to follow. His presentations make the most out of what is put on each slide, which is usually only one or two images and a few short bullets of text. In his case, less is always more. Had…[Read more]
