    Study Notes

    Monitoring and Control

    • A monitoring system observes through sensors, such as a burglar alarm.
    • A control system uses actuators to control a process, such as a washing machine.
    • A monitoring and control system combines both functions, using sensors to observe and actuators to control, such as in agricultural applications.

    Sensors

    • A sensor is a device that detects physical signals, such as temperature, motion, touch, light, pressure, proximity, or smoke.
    • Types of sensors include:
      • Temperature sensors
      • Motion sensors
      • Touch sensors
      • Light sensors
      • Pressure sensors
      • Proximity sensors
      • Smoke sensors

    Artificial Intelligence

    • Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a field of computer science that focuses on creating machines that perform tasks that require human intelligence.
    • Features of AI include:
      • Data collection: vast amounts of data used as input
      • Programmed rules: rules and algorithms of performance
      • Ability to reason: ability to reason and draw logical conclusions
      • Ability to learn: learn from collected data and feedback
    • Applications of AI include:
      • Computer-assisted translation: text, voice, and video
      • Speech recognition: converting voice to text
      • Neural networks: recognizing patterns in pixels
      • Image recognition: identifying and interpreting patterns
      • Virtual personal assistant: simulating conversations
      • Text generation: generating text, such as ChatGPT
      • Gaming: improving visual quality
      • Weather Forecasting: analyzing large amounts of data for detailed forecasting
      • Machine learning in genomics: classifying DNA sequences
      • Computer-assisted diagnosis: using imaging, algorithms, and machine learning models to diagnose diseases

    Emerging Technologies

    • Virtual Reality (VR) and Mixed Reality (MR): computer-simulated reality that allows user interaction
    • Augmented Reality (AR): computer-generated content that enhances the real world
    • HoloLens technology: transparent display computers
    • Cloud Computing: accessing data and information from different locations

    • E-waste: digital devices containing toxic materials
    • Waste-to-Energy: converting non-recyclable materials into energy
    • E-waste Management: reducing, reusing, and recycling
    • 3D Printing: creating prototypes to reduce waste, power consumption, and cost
    • Bio-printing: creating biological structures using 3D printing
    • Health Issues:
      • Computer Vision Syndrome: eye dryness and blurred vision from screen reading
      • Social alienation: excessive computer usage leading to depression, anxiety, and despair
      • Posture-related injuries: muscle and joint pain from long-term computer usage
      • Psychological effects: increased risk of depression and insomnia from prolonged screen time
