Emerging Technologies: IoT, Augmented
Reality and Virtual Reality
Q1. Urban
performance currently depends not only on a city's endowment of hard
infrastructure (physical capital), but also, and increasingly so, on the
availability and quality of knowledge communication and social infrastructure
(human and social capital). The latter form of capital is decisive for urban
competitiveness. Against this background, the concept of the “smart city” has
recently been introduced as a strategic device to encompass modern urban
production factors in a common framework and, in particular, to highlight the
importance of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) in the last 20
years for enhancing the competitive profile of a city. The demand for smart
cities has increased in recent years. In order to meet the demand of a smart
city project in a country like India, with the help of any smart city project
in India explain what are some of the key elements for such smart cities and
also mention their importance. (10 Marks)
Answer.
Q2. You
have been assigned as a part of a committee in the city to identify where IoT
can be used to promote areas in healthcare and pharmaceuticals. In your
opinion, what are those areas where IoT can be used in this sector? (10 Marks)
Answer.
Q3.
Augmented Reality (AR) is an emerging form of experience in which the Real
World (RW) is enhanced by computer-generated content tied to specific locations
and/or activities. Over the last several years, AR applications have become
portable and widely available on mobile devices. AR is becoming visible in our
audio-visual media (e.g., news, entertainment, sports) and is beginning to
enter other aspects of our lives (e.g., e-commerce, travel, and marketing,
education) in tangible and exciting ways. Facilitating ubiquitous learning, AR
will give learners instant access to location specific information compiled and
provided by numerous sources. Educators around the globe today have realized that
AR/VR are big breakthroughs when it comes to learning — for a method as well as
outcomes. AR has great potential in democratizing the educational process and
making it a personalized learning experience for learners of all stripes.
Simply put, augmented reality or AR is a multi-sensory interactive experience
that involves real-world elements in a virtual environment. It is known to
offer perceptually-enriched experiences to users by using real-world elements
and adding a layer of information or visual aid on top of it in a natural
manner. The most common examples of AR technology is seen in animated emojis
these days on smartphones such as Apple iPhones, Samsung Galaxy series and
more. In the industrial context, AR applications can help with on-the-go learning
for maintenance and troubleshooting, systems maintenance work and other
computer-aided learning and training. The primary reasons why AR is believed to
be the future of learning and education include better learning retention,
personalised learning experiences, increased possibilities of experimentation,
reduced reliance on learning by rote, empowering educators and learners,
encouraging active learning. Classrooms in the future will not look like they
do today. AR will see a prominent push in the next 3 to 5 years in India, and
most schools will have dedicated tools. Higher education will see faster
adoption for AR tools, given that the technology is already present in such
institutions.
