Changes in Communication over Time
Thanks to Martin Cooper, his first phone call will go down in history. The first ever phone call made. He made the call on a Motorola DynacTAC from New York, that marks the occasion of the 40th anniversary.
It is extraordinary, that this phone was '9 inches tall, comprised 30 circuit boards, had a talk time of 35 minutes, and took 10 hours to recharge.' Well look how it has come on now, 40 years on, with the use of 3G and internet on our now called 'smartphones', the mobile phone industry truly has taken off.
But still innovators are looking further at how our modern day smartphones can be advanced further. I don't quite understand how they can make them any smaller, or thinner, I mean it's mind boggling to think how small they are and what they are capable of.
I seriously cannot comprehend what will happen within the next 40 years, and Dr Short says: "It's very difficult to predict 40 years' time because the pace of innovation is speeding up. I would say that we'll all be mobile, globally, everyone will be mobile." "I'd also say that we'll be connecting many more machines via wireless mobile technology as well."I know I can't wait to see what the technology the future will bring us, many more fascinating and mind-blowing things, I would imagine.
