From a hand-written letter to the typewriter, fax machine and email all the way up to the instant messaging of today, the state of technology has always defined the conditions for human interaction. Technological advancement is not just important for computer scientists and business managers - it also radically redefines the way each one of us live and interact with each other.
As a result, CanopyLAB decided to create a series of courses that will introduce you to five emerging technologies that are revolutionizing our current times: Blockchain, Artificial Intelligence (AI) & Machine Learning (ML), Internet of Things (IoT), Digital Twin, and last but not least, 3D Printing & Digital Manufacturing.
Through the series, you will explore topics such as blockchain's potentials for accelerating international development and the role of AI in future warfare. You will also learn about how IoT is reshaping our urban spaces, the role of digital twins in creating virtual environments, and how 3D printing and digital manufacturing is changing lives at both the individual and the global level.
This is the first course in the series. It is consisted of five units, with each unit explaining the basic concepts behind each of the five technologies. The rest of the series is made up of courses that specialize in one technology at a time for a deeper exploration.
Unit 1: What Is Blockchain And How Does It Work?
Unit 2: Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning
Unit 3: The Abc Of Iot
Unit 4: What Is A Digital Twin?
Unit 5: Breaking Down 3d Printing
Unit 6: The Ethics of Emerging Technology
