Will the Internet surpass the five senses!
Will the Internet surpass the five senses!
The five human senses - hearing, sight, smell, touch, and taste - are God's greatest gift to mankind.
The Internet is about to transcend these five senses through the virtual.
Hearing Hearing sound
Something that allows us to hear sounds in remote locations, rather than hearing them in real life at that location.
It is radio.
It took 38 years to reach 50 million radio listeners in the United States.
It is now possible to hear remote sounds. Virtual technology has made it possible.
Sight Seeing things
Seeing things remotely, not directly, and its instruments.
That is television.
It took 13 years for the number of television viewers in the U.S. to reach 50 million.
It took 13 years to reach 50 million television viewers in the U.S. It is now possible to see things remotely. Virtual technology has made it possible.
Smell To smell things.
About two years ago, a French TV company developed a TV that emits smells.
They developed a device that emits the smell of curry when curry is shown on TV.
Virtual technology has made the sense of smell remote.
Tactile Sense Sense of touching an object.
Telemedicine is evolving.
A dedicated optical fiber has been installed to allow a scalpel to be operated from a remote location.
The time is coming when everything can be operated remotely via the Internet.
The state of the retina seen at Hospital A can be viewed in real time at Hospital B, 100 km away.
It is the virtualization of vision.
The Internet is rapidly changing the world.
It will only take 5 years for the Internet to penetrate 50 million people in the U.S.
Taste Sense of tasting things
In this field, the Internet has not yet surpassed the real world. Is this an area that needs to be addressed in the future?
As we can see, the scope of our lives is expanding from the real to the virtual, and the scope of our activities is expanding.
The range of activities is expanding.
Gaia no Yoake (Dawn of Gaia) had a special feature on telemedicine.
The best doctors will perform the surgery. Not directly, but virtually through the Internet.
What does this indicate? The answer is simple.
The same is true of tutoring schools. Lectures are given over the Internet.
A teacher from a well-known prep school in Tokyo can give a lecture even if he or she is in Okinawa or Hokkaido.
It is much more valuable than learning locally from a teacher who has no ability to teach.
It is a wonderful thing.
What this shows is clear.
People with ability will be able to work virtually more and more,
And for those who are not capable, the virtualization will take their jobs.
Daniel Pink's book "High Concept" describes this in detail.
The Internet will make it possible to consult the best academics, the best medical technology, and the best lawyers from all over the world, no matter where they are located.
the best medical technology, and the best lawyers from all over the world.
There is an IBM commercial that goes something like this.
A child living in the foothills of the Himalayas wants to learn but cannot. Naturally, he lives with his parents on a dairy farm during the day.
The idea is that the child can use the Internet to learn as much as a well-known school in the city center.
The idea is that he can use the Internet to learn as much as he can at a famous school in the city center.
Thanks for the learning. The Net has satisfied my intellectual curiosity.
The more the Net evolves, the more it enriches our lives.
It is up to mankind to decide how to use it.
What we want to make useful using the Net, there is a great social contribution and business opportunity.
