Innovations of 2010 to the present

By Aaron Sandler and Jack WheelerSlide2

Self Driving Car

A car made by Google that can navigate through streets without a human driving

Has sensors: lasers, cameras, and radars that detect objects in all directions

runs on electric batteries The car processes both map and sensor information to determine where it is in the worldSensors help detect objects all around us. The software classifies objects based on their size, shape and movement patternThe software predicts what all the objects around us might do nextThe software then chooses a safe speed and trajectory for the carThe self driving car is important because it makes driving safer since 94% of accidents are caused by human error makes getting around easier especially for people who cannot driveSlide3

iPad

The apple iPad is the first tablet made by apple. It is a touchscreen device that is made to be almost 4x larger than a normal iPod or iPhone

The iPad runs on a battery and uses the ios operating system. The touchscreen is made to only sense bare skin and nothing else but special styli and gloves can still work. There are 3 main buttons on the iPad; the home button which takes you back to the main interface, the sleep button which turns the screen on and off, and the volume buttons which control the volume.

The iPad was an important invention because it gave you the power of iPhone with a bigger screen that allowed easier control and more uses such as reading, since the smaller iPhone screen made it more difficult to read books off of for people with vision impairmentsSlide5

Wireless Power

Wireless power is a term used to describe technology transmitting energy through an electromagnetic field to another technological device

Examples of wireless power are electric toothbrush chargers and charging stations for electric vehicles like busses and trains.

Wireless power works by plugging a transmitter to a power source which emits a magnetic field that is received by another device with a receiver, or the power can be transmitted by shooting a beam of electromagnetic radiation directly at the target which can be used at a much farther distance than a magnetic field can reach. The latter can be used to charge military drones and solar satellites.Slide6

Google's search engine allows people to gain information quickly and easily and has improved greatly in its ease of use since it was first founded in September of 1998

Google’s applications such as Google Docs, Slides, and Sheets allows a group to work on a project at the same time from different locations which is useful because now group can be done from anywhere across the world as long as you have internetGoogle has also created its own line of smartphones and tablets that give you the power of google wherever you go.Slide9
