A Primum Mobile in Human lives

P
eople at work, home or
around demand technology
that can keep up with their
fast-paced lives. Appliances and
electronics must work faster,
better and more reliably than ever
before- and get more
accomplished in less time.
Electronic devices are not only
leading the day to day life
activities but have given some
miraculous technologies in various
fields like medical, sensing and
security, business, lighting,
entertainment, sports,
communication, transportation,
space exploration, weather and
natural disaster prediction and
many more technological avenues
with tremendous development
towards the benefit of mankind
which can simply be termed as
technological miracles through
electronics.
Electronics will certainly play a large part in the new
world and solve many industrial problems. Electronics will
create jobs in many other fields, and perhaps by reducing
manufacturing costs of many items. The present article is
a small effort in this direction to briefly highlight some of
such technological miracles through electronics.
Industry
The variety of functions of which electronics is capable, in
industrial applications alone, could not be described in
anything short of an encyclopedia. All we can do here is
to glance at a few things electronics can do better than
they were done before, and others which, without
electronics, could not be done at all. The great impact will
come, not through any one spectacular development, but
through the expanding uses of electronics in industry.
Some of the key industrial technological developments
based on electronics can be summarized as:
Production: The production of countless necessities of
life as, houses, autos, machinery, tools, are being
immeasurably speeded up and improved with the use of
electronics based applications.
Automation: Factory production is being made more and
more automatic by amazingly accurate electronic
methods of sensing and measurement and control.
