The Volunteer Team of Trust Volunteers will regularly introduce topics related to the very many categories of “Technology”
Wikipedia has a comprehensive list of different types of Technology at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Technology_by_type but listed below are some of the main categories they mention :-.
3D Printing or additive manufacturing is the construction of a three-dimensional object from a CAD model or a digital 3D model. It can be done in a variety of processes in which material is deposited, joined or solidified under computer control, with the material being added together, typically layer by layer.
Aerospace Technology is a term used to collectively refer to the atmosphere and outer space. Aerospace activity is very diverse, with a multitude of commercial, industrial, and military applications. Aerospace engineering consists of aeronautics and astronautics.
Agricultural Technology or agrotechnology is the use of technology in agriculture, horticulture, and aquaculture with the aim of improving yield, efficiency, and profitability. Agricultural technology can be products, services or applications derived from agriculture that improve various input and output processes.
Architectural Technology, or building technology, is the application of technology to the design of buildings. It is a component of architecture and building engineering and is sometimes viewed as a distinct discipline or sub-category.
Artificial Intelligence, in its broadest sense, is intelligence exhibited by machines, particularly computer systems.
Assistive Technology is a technological system that improves the way a person does things, such as: movement, ambulation, turning or other physical motion, bathing, eating, or climbing stairs.
Automation describes a wide range of technologies that reduce human intervention in processes, mainly by predetermining decision criteria, subprocess relationships, and related actions, as well as embodying those predeterminations in machines.
Biotechnology is a multidisciplinary field that involves the integration of natural sciences and engineering sciences in order to achieve the application of organisms and parts thereof for products and services.
Business Technology is an idea that narrates all technology that aids an organisation to run its business and operational methods.
Cloud Computing refers to the process of using computers to achieve a given task, involving the delivery of computing resources and services over the internet on a pay-per-use basis.
Communication Technology is commonly defined as the transmission of information. Its precise definition is disputed and there are disagreements about whether unintentional or failed transmissions are included and whether communication not only transmits meaning but also creates it.
Computer Networks - A computer network is a set of computers sharing resources located on or provided by network nodes. Computers use common communication protocols over digital interconnections to communicate with each other.
Cyber Security is the protection of computer software, systems and networks from threats that can lead to unauthorized information disclosure, theft or damage to hardware, software, or data, as well as from the disruption or misdirection of the services they provide.
Educational Technology is the combined use of computer hardware, software, and educational theory and practice to facilitate learning.
Electronics is the study and use of electrical devices that operate at relatively low voltages by controlling the flow of electrons or other electrically charged particles in devices such as thermionic valves and semiconductors. The design and construction of electronic circuits to solve practical problems is part of the fields of electrical engineering, electronic engineering and computer engineering.
Energy Technology is the quantitative property that is transferred to a body or to a physical system, recognizable in the performance of work and in the form of heat and light.
Entertainment Technology encompasses a wide range of tools and platforms for leisure and entertainment. This includes video games, streaming services, virtual reality (VR), and augmented reality (AR). It enriches our entertainment experiences and offers new forms of interactive storytelling.
Health Technology is defined by the World Health Organization as the "application of organized knowledge and skills in the form of devices, medicines, vaccines, procedures, and systems developed to solve a health problem and improve quality of lives".
Information and Communications Technology is an extensional term for information technology that stresses the role of unified communications and the integration of telecommunications and computers
Information Technology is a set of related fields that encompass computer systems, software, programming languages, and data and information processing, and storage. IT forms part of information and communications technology
Internet of Things describes devices with sensors, processing ability, software and other technologies that connect and exchange data with other devices and systems over the Internet or other communication networks. The Internet of things encompasses electronics, communication, and computer science engineering.
Manufacturing Technology encompasses processes and machinery used to produce goods and products. This includes automation, robotics, 3D printing, etc ...
Robotics is the interdisciplinary study and practice of the design, construction, operation, and use of robots. Within mechanical engineering, robotics is the design and construction of the physical structures of robots, while in computer science, robotics focuses on robotic automation algorithms.
Transport or Transportation Technology is the intentional movement of humans, animals, and goods from one location to another. Modes of transport include air, land, water, cable, pipelines, and space. The field can be divided into infrastructure, vehicles, and operations.
