New and Emerging Technologies

In today’s world there are new technologies and gadgets being discovered and updated regularly.  There has also been dramatic developments in output media products such as flat screen TVs, mobile phones and probably the most improved game consoles. These technologies are having massive effects on creating and viewing graphics as today’s televisions are all mostly LCD wide screens with high definition (HD) which only increases the quality of the graphics on screen. There has also been a huge development in 3D viewing where the viewers put on 3D glasses and they can get a fantastic viewing experience. Another piece of technology that has been around for some time but has always been improving each year is mobile phones, compared to 10 years ago today’s mobile phones have a lot more features such as; Bluetooth, mp3 players, megapixel camera, instant messaging and internet browers.  The most popular emerging technologies would be 3D and touch screens, most devices and technologies that are being designed today are all touch screen and finger recognition. This next piece of technology is probably the most improved and has been emerging for years now, game consoles. The two consoles I will be talking about are Playstation and Xbox. There has been so many developments in these two consoles as they have evolved from when they were first designed. The Playstation has now got 3 consoles named Playstation, Playstation 2 and Playstation 3, the main difference between them is now the Playstation 3 supports online gaming which is a massive advantage and is used world wide. The Xbox is similar as its newest console is called Xbox 360 and also supports online gaming. These consoles massively feature HD (High Definition) gaming which has dramatically improved the graphics of games.
