Every morning I put on my running shoes for my daily run, and thanks to NASA they are now more shock absorbent than ever. On top of that, the city in which I live in is always sunny, and instead of wasting energy we now use solar panels at our houses to save energy. I may not use power tools every day, but they have made the small projects much simpler. Apollo technology has also impacted my…
but we rely on technology almost as much as the people in the story. There are many parallels between the dystopian future Forester portrays, and the present we live in now. For example, the main characters in this story are a mother and son, Vashti and Kuno. The only way that they communicate is through a machine that controls every part of their lives, but they don’t mind at all. Life is easier with the technology the machine provides, such as pushing a button and receiving food. Although the…
The Inuit people were quite technologically advanced relative to their location and time period. Inuit technology included bone, horn, antler, ivory, stone, animal skins, and baleen for basketry.

Some of these inventions included Igloos, toggling harpoon heads, kayaks, sleds, skin covered boots that were used universally, and the early domestication of dogs for hunting and packing. Most tools that the…
The demand-pull is a key driver of innovation, as it’s the need demanded by the consumer. Demand-pull relates back to our core necessities of basic needs - shelter, food, clothing, and security. All successful innovation demand products strut from one of those categories (Tidd & Bessant, 2014). Whilst sounding relatively simple, this imposes a whole string of challenges for innovators to take into consideration. One…
Since the days of the Neanderthals and the cavemen, humans have gathered together for reasons that range from protective to social. This gathering has resulted in the technology that a majority of the members of this planet use on a daily basis and take for granted, such as the computer that the author of this paper is typing out their words on right now, or the system that the assessor of this paper uses to collect the finished product. However, while these systems help to make our lives richer…

The idea of robots with the abilities to imitate the roles present in the workforce, namely lower-class jobs such as fast-food services and transportation, that while contain the benefits of…
Do you think you could live in a world without your phone or computer? What about a world without electrical power at all? Well if an Electromagnetic Pulse, also known as an EMP were to occur, it would change the technology world forever. Such threats are often dismissed as unlikely or a relic from the Cold War. They are not. Solar storms are not infrequent, making it only a matter of time until one impacts our critical infrastructure. And unlike natural phenomena, there is no reliable…
who favor this position support their statements by referencing how wonderful the days without technology were, when playing outside was the main source of entertainment. They make note of how happy children were without touching technological devices, and how young people always utilized their imaginations to create their own games. They presume if children of the past were so joyous without technology, children of the current generation should not be exposed to technological devices. People in…
