Sandeep Kapoor – Director of Demand and Channel Marketing at Keysight Technologies – shares his insights into how the next evolution of humankind will be driven by advanced technology.
Revolutionary inventions pave the way for future technological innovations
In 2022, the world celebrated the 75th anniversary of the well-known device, the transistor, and the 65th anniversary of another stellar device, the integrated circuit.
Since then, we have evolved from a single amplifier block to a 3000-transistor wafer in the 1970s to a nanometer process that can accommodate 50 billion transistors onto a chip the size of a fingernail.
Charles Darwin made this historic statement 153 years ago: “From so simple a beginning, endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been, and are being, evolved.”
The quote from his book, On the Origin of the Species, is quite apt today when applied to emerging technologies, such as 5G, autonomous vehicles, artificial intelligence, quantum computing, and the digital twin.
In the last 35 years, the semiconductor market grew from over US$30 billion to more than US$600 billion, creating millions of employment opportunities.
60 years ago, the Mansfield News Journal correctly predicted the future in an article with the headline: “You’ll be able to carry [your] phone in [a] pocket in the future.”
Exactly 20 years after that, Motorola launched the first commercially available cellular phone, DynaTac 8000X, costing US$3995, weighing around 1 kg, and providing 30 minutes of talk time per charging cycle for 1G networks.
Emerging technologies mature as life-altering advances continue
The evolution continues as 5G networks overcome design challenges to enable <1 ms latency and up to 20 Gbps speed.
