Apple Ipads
Apple made available computer hardware such as the iPhone 4 (2007) and the iPad tablet (2010). Steve Jobs is one of the inventors, on January 27, 2010 he publicly showed the iPad. The computer’s touch screen was made with higher resolutions, a wider viewing angle, and an improved color which made it easier for consumers to see and to use it to browse the web, read and email, watch videos, read e-books, play games, and do other functions. -
Raspberry Pi single board computer
Raspberry Pi, is a single board computer that is the size of a credit card and is available at a low cost. The inventor, a British engineer - Eben Upton had a goal to help teach children more about computers so they’d be interested in becoming programmers and network engineers. At that time, there was a need for more computer programmers and network engineers. -
Microsoft windows 10
Microsoft Windows 10 delivered an improved operating system security that could be installed on other devices such as desktop PC, Laptops, and Tablets. Microsoft employees, Terry Myerson and his team of engineers developed the Windows 10. This operating system manages all of the hardware and software on a computer which makes it easier to find apps. -
Self-driving car Tesla
Also during this year, autonomous cars/self-driving cars were made by Tesla (headed by Elon Musk-electric carmaker) and Google (business is in hardware, software, email and entertainment) and both would start to test their cars on the road. Google’s interest is to partner with automakers in hopes that their autonomous-driving software would dominate the market. The purpose of autonomous vehicles were to reduce human error on the road. -
DARPA
Dr. Anne Fischer and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) team formed a molecular informatics program to work on a breakthrough technology to use encoded molecules to store data and processing. It is a new concept that may bypass using the 1s and 0s bits that is used in digital information systems. -
Artificial Intelligence Quantum
Professor John Martinis and his team, before they became Google staff had worked at UC Santa Barbara where they worked on Artificial Intelligence Quantum, a programmable superconducting processor. Google hired Martinis and his team to build the quantum hardware. Then Google announced that it achieved quantum supremacy. Quantum experiments are continuing worldwide in the scientific community and the goal is to process data at incredible speed to create faster working computers.
