Benifit of innovation and new technologies
innovation is the process of developping and implementing new ideas, products, or services that bring value and improve upon and improve upon existing ones.
it involves finding new and creative solutions to problems and challenges, and often requires advance in technology, knowlege, or other resources
meeting the needs of the market, economy, society
it can creat jobs, improve quality, reduce cost, increasing spped and relaiblity

low carbon technologies
low carbon technologies refer to technologies and processes that have lower greenhouse gas emission or carbon footprints compared to traditional technologies.
these technologies are becoming increasingly important in the context of climate change as reducing greenhouse gas emissions is essential to mitigating the impacts of climete change
some examples of low carbon technologies including ???///??//?/
climate change policy and drivers: the policies, regulations, market incentives that encorage the adoption of low carbon technologies.
Carbon capture: the process of capturin and storing carbon dioxide emisions from power plants or other indestrial processes, rather then relesing them into the atmosphere. this can be done through a variety of methodes, such as capturing carbone deoxide at the point of emission and injecting it into underground geological formations
renewable energies

practical issues: cost of the technology, the availability of the technology, technical feasibilty
sustainable technologies; minimize their enviromental impact
the advantages and disadvantages of low carbon technology
feedback clarity: clear communication… build trust and support
Augmented and Virtual reality
Virtual reality is a computer simulation of an image or enviroment with which a user can interact where augmented reality superimposees a compater- generated image on a user’s view of the real world, providing a composite view
Applications of augmented and virtual reality
product design: augmented and virtual reality can help in the development and design of products by providing a virtual enviroment for testing and prototyping, enabling designers to visualise and manipulate objects in 3D space, and providing an immersive experiance for consumers to interact with products
sensen and automation augmented and virtual reality in industry: can help in development of sesnsen and automation tech, enhance human-robot interactions, provide real-time monitoring of processes,and improve safety
domestic uses: enhance entertainment experiences, provide immersive learning enviroments, enable remote communcation and collabration
VR & AR in industry
training and similation
product design
maintenance and repair
quality control
remote assistance
potential implications
increased efficincy
reduce cost
improve safety
encancy collabration
what is meant digital technologies?
the use of computer and internet based tools, systems, applications to manage, analyse, communicate information
computing hardware and software
data management and analysis tools
networking and communication
cloud computing

social media and collaboration tools
didital technologies changed society in many ways
inreased connactivitiy
access to information
online commerce
social media
remote work
digital technologies and their applications in engineering
simulation and modelling
data managment and analysis
3D printing
internet of things (IoT)
artificial intelagent (AI) and mechine learning (ML)
the impact of digital technologies
econmic impact: change the way goods, serviece are produced, distributed and consumed
social impact: changed the way people intract
political impact: the way gov, political system operate
culture impact: the way people understand, partisipat
enviromental impact: the way natural resource are been used and waste in managed
ethical impact; raised new eithical questions about privacy, security, and intellectual property
health impact; the way people access healthcare information and services
what is cloud computing
is a model of delivering computing services over the internet— (servers, storage, databases, networking, software, analytics, intellignce). the clould offer fster innovstion, flexible resource and economies of scale
clod computing in engineering
simulation and modelling; reduce the need for high-performance local computing resorces
data managment and analysis; store, process, analyse large amount of data
collaboration and communication;no need for physical meet
software and tool access; reduce the need for expensive local software installations
storage backup; protect their data, projects in secure, reliable, accessible enviroment
Cloud Computing Architecture
Infrastructure:Provides virtualized computing resources such as servers, storage and networking; it allows users to scale resources without maintaining physical hardware, such as amazon web services, Microsoft azure, google cloud.
Platforms:Offers a development environment for building, testing and deploying applications; it includes tools, databases, and middleware for streamline application development, such as google app engine, Microsoft azure app services, AWS elastic beanstalk.
Software: Delivers software applications over the internet without local installation; allowing users to access applications through a web browser, usually on a subscription bases, such as google drive, Microsoft 365, dropbox, zoom.
Benefits: Its cost-effective due to the reduced need for hardware and maintenance, its scalable due to easily adiesside trom an former tin emer connection, it allows remote work and real-time teamwork on shared documents.
benifit of cloud computing
cost savings, increased efficincy, scalablility
cloud platforms can be used for storage and processing, provid wide range of computing resources and services
grid comuting and cloud computing are often compared, cloud computing is more flexible and cost effective
diffrent type of cloud computing
public cloud; owned by third-party companies, used for small sacle projects
private cloud; owned and operated by single organisation, designed to meet their spicific need. grater control, pravicy
community cloud; operated by group of organisation with common interest such as goverment agencies or group of universties. secuirty like privet public cloud benifit like sheared resources and economies of scale
hybrid cloud; combanation of privite and public clouds that are used to meet specific needs. cost effective of public and security like privite. used (both on-demand resources) and (specialised infastructure)
