1. If you had to start your own business tomorrow, what would it be? If I were to start my own business tomorrow without financial constraint, I would open a bar that operates its taps and dispensers using wristband sensors. My bar’s walls will be lined with taps filled with various beers, wines, and liquors. Upon arrival to the bar, patrons would provide a credit/debit card to receive their wristbands for the evening. A patron would use his/her wristband when approaching a tap to activate the

To say that technology has improves the overall quality and effectiveness of healthcare is an understatement. Technology greatly benefits many aspects of our lives on a day to day basis and its impact on the healthcare industry is no different. Things like social media and especially the use of smartphones have allowed for advancements in healthcare because of the numerous benefits they offer us, when used properly and for the right reasons that is.

problem? There are a variety of wearable sensors like location beacons, accelerometers, cameras, and physiological sensors. But then, there is a need to develop a single device that can monitor a wealth of activities. Secondly, there is a need to develop tools and techniques for continuously sensing user activities of interest, in order to develop a variety of truly ubiquitous computing applications. Humans have always tried to monitor activities via the use of sensors, the introduction of Bodyscope to

For example, an image with a shallow depth of field was taken with a wider aperture, longer focal length, and was closer to the subject, while a longer depth of field would have a narrow aperture, shorter focal length, and a longer distance between the camera’s lens and the
Technology has changed every aspect of life. People are now attached to an electronic device that they can hardly take their eyes off to have an actual conversation. Technology has also changed art and the way people look at it today. Art began with cave paintings and from there has evolved to have many mediums, and those mediums are constantly evolving with how artists want to express themselves. When photography started to develop, many artists didn’t consider it art. They thought it didn’t capture
Many people have a mindset that one must have a huge camera to produce high-quality images. However, this is not true. In 2018, there will be smaller cameras that will be more powerful, comfortable to carry and much easier to use. People can share ideas regardless of their location in the globe.

The acknowledgment of and connection with nature is an essential element in order to become a person’s most genuine self. A similar variation of this idea is communicated in“The Village” by Henry David Thoreau. The essay was written in 1854 and published in his short collection of essays, Walden or Life in the Woods, a series of essays derived from his two and a half year spent living in the woods of Concord, Massachusetts. The essay aims to persuade active members of American society, intellectuals

News images shape our culture in an extremely profound way. Photojournalism is a particular form of journalism that documents images in order to tell a news story.

overusing photo editing software: distorted perceptions and damaged credibility. Nowadays, the excessive use of Photoshop in the media causes viewers like me to become increasingly skeptical about the outlets that produce them. The influence of an image on viewers’ perception is stronger than that of words. John Long accentuated this statement when he said, “Words can tell us the facts, but photos hit us in the gut” (671). Unfortunately, it is difficult for the public to recognize how easily small
growth due to social desires were the first instances in which it could be seen that the way people say the world around them would completely change. The human desire to continue to find a better type of production lead to the ability to mass produce images and therefore allowed for information to be spread nationally as well as international. Photography allowed people to see places they had never seen, they were able to help support scientific discoveries as well as disprove racial remarks, and they
The digital age of man has allowed individuals of all backgrounds to record and capture millions of once-in-a-lifetime memories with the ability to be copied, shared, and accessed by innumerable numbers of people worldwide. Snapshots of birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, and vacations can now all be stored in online databases such as iCloud or Photobucket.

rectangle. I love what I do!” Raetilliah Hayes once stated (Hayes). What is a photographer? A photographer is someone who takes pictures, typically on a camera, to record an event or capture a particular moment as a profession (Photographer). Because images are there when people are absent, photography is a way of keeping memories alive. Sir John F.W Herschel, in 1839, used the word photography for the first time.

photography improved continuously from traditional methods to digital methods. It had an important status in the world. At the beginning of the development of photography, people used Camera obscuras to form images on walls in a darkened room (“History of Photography Timeline,” 1999). Those images were formed through the pinhole (“History of Photography Timeline,” 1999). In 1839, photography were announced to the world which was a great development for the society (Sandler, 2002, p. 7). The daguerreotype
Photography is an essential component to archeology as it acts as a tool to archaeologist to tell a story on what is happening in the archaeological site or with an artifact. On the photography work, a shiny ceramic vessel was used as a reflective object. It was among the hardest objects to deal with as it required a lot of attention on making sure that an extreme amount of light reflection and the surrounding object is minimized. This object was chosen because of its challenges and it was the only
Throughout the decade of the 1960’s the well-known photographer Richard Avedon produced some of his most famous works. Richard Avedon was born May 12, 1923, in a middle class family.

The 1960’s were filled of different with many aspects
