2. Modern technology is simply an advancement
of old technology, the impact of technology in
modern life is immeasurable, we use
technology in different ways and sometimes
the way we implement various technologies
ends up harming our lives or the society we
leave in.
What we call modern technology is technically
not so new in most cases. For example, mobile
phone technology has evolved with years,
nowadays we use smart phones which have
been an advancement of an ordinary mobile
phone
3. Modern technology simplifies life
in so many ways and everyone
defines technology in their own way.
To some people, it means complicated
electronic devices. To others, it means
the source of the radical changes that
are happening in all phases of life.
Technology is applied to the roles
each individual fulfils during life.
We use technology on a daily basis to
accomplish specific tasks or interests
Others define technology as
science applied to practical purposes.
Some people fear to use technology
while others see it as the source of
longer and more complete lives.
5. Robotics is the branch of mechanical
engineering, electrical
engineering and computer science that deals
with the design, construction, operation,
and application of robots, as well as
computer systems for their control, sensory
feedback, and information processing.
These technologies deal with automated
machines robots for short that can take the
place of humans in dangerous environments
or manufacturing processes, or resemble
humans in appearance, behaviour, and or
cognition. Many of today's robots are
inspired by nature contributing to the field
of bio-inspired robotics.
6. Today, robotics is a rapidly growing
field, as technological advances
continue; researching, designing,
and building new robots serve
various practical purposes,
whether domestically,
commercially, or militarily.
Many robots are built to do jobs
that are hazardous to people such
as defusing bombs, finding
survivors in unstable ruins, and
exploring mines. Robotics is also
used in STEM, a school program
that teaches children to create and
program robots.
7. Plastics engineering encompasses the processing, design, development, and
manufacture of plastics products. A plastic is a polymeric material that is in a
semi-liquid state, having the property of plasticity and exhibiting flow. Plastics
engineering encompasses plastics material and plastic machinery
Mechanical properties of plastics are often difficult to
quantify, and the plastics engineer has to design a product
that meets certain specifications while keeping costs to a
minimum
Plastic Machinery is the general term for all types of machinery and devices used
in the plastics processing industry.The nature of plastic materials poses unique
challenges to an engineer.
8. Other properties that the plastics
engineer has to address include:
outdoor weather ability, thermal
properties such as upper use
temperature, electrical properties,
barrier properties, and resistance to
chemical attack. In many cases
however, it is important for a product
to meet certain specifications, and
cost could then be measured in price
per unit of a property. Price with
respect to processibility is often
important, as some materials need to
be processed at very high
temperatures, increasing the amount
of cooling time a part needs
9. Regenerative
medicine is a branch
of translational
research in tissue
engineering and mole
cular biology.
It deals with the
"process of replacing,
engineering or
regenerating human
cells, tissues or organs
to restore or establish
normal function".
This field holds the
promise of repairing
tissues by stimulating
the body's own repair
mechanisms to heal
previously irreparable
tissues or organs.
If a regenerated organ's
cells would be derived
from the patient's own
tissue, this would solve
the problem of the
shortage of organs
available for donation,
Regenerative medicine
also includes the
possibility of growing
tissues and organs and
safely implanting them
when the body cannot
heal itself

11. Tissue culture is the growth of tissues or cells
separate from the organism.
Plant tissue culture refers to-in vitro
techniques used to cultivate the
plants,seeds,and various parts like,
Embryo,Tissues,Proto-plast etc. eg.callus
culture,organ culture.
On the other hand, cloning, production of test
tube babies, etc. comes under animal tissue
culture
12. Process Of Plant Tissue Culture
1) Cells are
taken from
plants and
grown
into undifferenti
ated masses
called callus.
2) Immature
embryos are
removed from
seeds and
placed on
media. Callus
cells will then
begin to grow
from them.
3) Callus are masses of
undifferentiated cells.
4) Growth
hormones can
be added to the
media and the
cells will begin
to divide and
differentiate
into plants
5) Regenerated
plants are then
transferred into test
tubes. Once they
have reached a
certain size, they
will be transplanted
into soil.
13. Nonotechnology is science, engineering, and
technology conducted at the nanoscale, which is
about 1 to 100 nanometers.
Uses Of
Nanotechnolgy
In Electronics
In Fuel
cells
In Catalysts
In
Medicine
15. Nuclear technology is the
technology that involves the
reactions of atomic nuclei.
• Uses of nanotechnology:-
Tens of millions of
patients are treated with
nuclear medicine each
year.
Heat from nuclear
reactors can be used
directly to generate
electricity.
16. How Does Nuclear Energy Work ?
Nuclear reactor creates heat that
is used to make steam
The steam turns a turbine
connected to an electromagnet,
called a generator
And the generator
produces electricity.
