EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES
1. ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI) - branch of computer science focused with making
computers work and act like humans.
2. ROBOTICS- the field of computer science and engineering concerned with creating devices that can move and react to
sensory input. It is a form of Artificial intelligence.
3. BIOMETRICS- in ICT, it is the technology used to measure and analyze human body characteristics such as DNA,
fingerprints, eye retinas and irises, voice patterns, facial patterns and hand measurements, mainly for authentication
purposes.
4. QUANTUM CRYPTOGRAPHY- the science of encoding and decoding information or messages which depends on
physics, not mathematics. It is used for information privacy and security.
5. COMPUTER - ASSISTED TRANSLATION (CAT) - the use of computers to assist in the translation of one or more natural
languages into another or others and vice versa.
6. 3D IMAGING AND HOLOGRAPHY- Holography is a photographic technique that uses light to project objects in a way
that it appears three- dimensional.
7. VIRTUAL REALITY- the term used to describe a three- dimensional, computer generated environment that can be
explored and interacted with by a person.
