Transportation IT Advancements
The transportation inventions and technological development play a huge role in social and economic progress of a country. There are some great technological developments occurred in the field of transportation in recent decades. From small vehicles such as automobiles to large means of transport like ships and air-planes, everything is affected by technological advancements, in a good manner. In old times, when there was not much advanced transportation system, people used to be ignorant about the places just miles away. But with the aid of technology, today the transport system is very efficient and fast.
Let us start from small vehicles such as cars, you can see that, today we have so much advanced cars and other personal vehicles that we never had before. Automobile industry is growing larger and larger, many other companies also started investing in automobile industry just because it has become the much profitable industry in recent decades. You see the auto mobile industries introducing newer and newer technologically developed cars, which attract people because of the comfort they provide and some wonderful functionalities. Today’s automobiles have heating and ventilating seats, air conditioner, heater, wi-fi, automatic lift-gates, modified navigation system, automatic emergency braking system and many more. Some new advancements to be made in future are currently under process such as autonomous or self-deriving cars, biometric security system instead of key, driver health and safety monitoring etc.
The local transport has also a great impact of technological development upon it. The subway, bullet train, metro and other faster means of transportation has changed people’s lives. By using these faster means of transportation, people can reach to their destination quite fast and with comfort. Also you can see that with technological advancements a whole DSNG system can be fitted into a van making it a lot easier for media channels to cover any incident happened at a far-away place.
Air travel has also become very easy with the new technological advancements introduced to run all procedures on the air-port and on the air-plane.
The trend towards biometric-enabled processing can be seen around the world. Biometric technology is not just impacting the travel experience on the ground, though; it could also reshape the experience at 35,000 feet.
Recently, biometric-based recognition has been implemented at the entrance of airline lounges. Technological advancements are also helping to bring about a revolution in the baggage space. There are reusable electronic tags instead of typical paper tags. The travel experience can be daunting when you are in an unfamiliar environment and don’t speak the local language but this could be solved thanks to artificial intelligence and machine learning technology.
Ships and cruises are known as a reliable mean of transportation from a long time. But in old times, the sea travel was not that easy as there was not such good system to navigate the ship. Today, with the aid of technological developments, we have artificial satellites to navigate a ship and the ships today are more capable and efficient mean of transportation to the far-away destinations. Almost all of the trading between the countries is through ships and cruises. Thus, maritime transport plays a quite important role in the economic and social development of a country.
