B S I T- N S -2 C D APPLICATION DEVELOPMENT: Research Activity 1 input Devices: Touchless Gesture Recognition: This input device technology allows users to interact with their devices using hand or body gestures, without the need for touch. This technology is being increasingly used in smartphones, smart homes, and other IoT devices. The technology utilizes cameras and sensors to detect and interpret user gestures, enabling them to control their devices with simple hand movements. Companies such as Google, Apple, and Samsung have already incorporated touchless gesture recognition into their devices. Voice Recognition: Voice recognition technology has come a long way in recent years and is now being widely adopted in various devices such as smartphones, smart speakers, and home automation systems. It allows users to control their devices using voice commands, making interaction more convenient and hands-free. Companies such as Amazon, Google, and Apple have already integrated voice recognition into their devices with their respective voice assistants Alexa, Google Assistant, and Siri. Output Devices: Haptic Feedback Gloves: Haptic feedback gloves are a potential future input device that will allow users to interact with virtual environments through touch. These gloves will be equipped with sensors that can detect touch, pressure, and motion, and will provide users with tactile feedback in response. The technology has potential applications in fields such as gaming, virtual reality, and medicine. Spatial Audio Speakers: Spatial audio speakers are a potential future output device that will provide users with a more immersive audio experience. This technology will enable speakers to produce sound that can be heard from different directions and distances, simulating a more natural and realistic sound environment. Spatial audio speakers will have potential applications in gaming, home entertainment, and virtual reality.
