A FEW AREAS OF APPLICATION OF DIGITAL EQUIPMENT

EMBEDDED SYSTEMS MECHATRONICS MARINE TECHNOLOGY

SATELLITE LAUNCHING & TRACKING

BIO-MEDICAL INSTRUMENTATION

A large number of digital equipments are used for health-care and medicinal purposes like diagnosis, testing, measurements, sensing & auto-adjustments, pressure and heat therapy, scopy, sonar and laser control.

DIGITAL CAMERAS» At the heart of a digital camera is

a CCD or a CMOS image sensor.

This digital camera is partly disassembled. The lens assembly (bottom right) is partially removed, but the sensor (top right) still captures a usable image, as seen on the LCD screen (bottom left).

APPLICATIONS IN COMPUTER AND COMMUNICATION

SMART CARDS• A smart card, chip card, or integrated circuit card (ICC), is any

pocket-sized card with embedded integrated circuits.

• Can be used for personal identification for financial services, healthcare, banking, entry to secure places, small amount payments, secure network access, set top boxes etc.

DIGITAL SIGNATURES AND BIO-METRICS FOR IDENTITY• A digital signature or digital signature scheme is a mathematical scheme for

demonstrating the authenticity of a digital message or document. A valid digital signature gives a recipient reason to believe that the message was created by a known sender, and that it was not altered in transit. Digital signatures are commonly used for software distribution, financial transactions, and in other cases where it is important to detect forgery or tampering.

DIGITAL LIBRARIES

Presently all forms of information are digitized and stored on digital storage equipment. This is enabled by the ever-growing storage technologies, digital technologies and explosive growth of the internet.

Multimedia content, E-books, Digital audio and video content enable us to store all forms of content on the web. Digitization of all existing content is the present.

Access to world-wide archives of complete historical data will be our future. This shall make the print media obsolete.

We are slowly evolving into a computer and network driven society and all future needs will be answered only by these two vehicles of today.

E-textiles, also known as electronic textiles, are fabrics that enable computing, digital components, and electronics to be embedded in them. Part of the development of wearable technology, they are known as intelligent clothing or smart clothing because they allow for the incorporation of built-in technological elements in everyday textiles and clothes.
