The Evolution of Wireless Technology-Past, Present and Future

Image
Origins of Wireless Technology To find out where wireless technology first got its start, we have to go back to explore its roots in 1887.  You might say 1887?  Isn’t that a little early for wireless device?  Well, yes and no.  In 1887 Heinrich Hertz created the first alternating current generator called an oscillator.  This device actually pushes electromagnetic waves through space which in turn created what we call today as radio wave frequency.  Getting down to basics–Security Solutions Made Easy by Wireless Technology   Even though wireless technology got an earlier start than you may have imagined using primitive telecoils, infrared systems and FM (frequency modulation) radio waves, modern wireless technology still utilizes that theory today.  The only difference now is that we use more advanced tools such as microchips that are compatible with almost any radio frequency. These microchips are found in the form of SIM cards and transponders.   The creation of wir

The Art of Potty Training Bargaining and Bribery

Image
What once began life as a simple M&M is now referred to as a “potty bean” and no visit to the potty would be complete without a poo poo toy surprise just waiting to be unwrapped. Yes, we parents have bartered, begged and pleaded with our little ones to comply with our requests by sitting down upon that shiny white throne we called “Mr. Potty”.   It’s a simple task really, or is it?  At least that’s how we as parents see it.  For our children it is a different matter entirely.  Mr. Potty doesn’t look and sound too friendly with his wide gaping mouth just waiting to swallow them up.  Just the sound of that royal flush can send a child screaming in the opposite direction.  It can be a daunting and challenging feat for kids to say the least.  It’s nothing though that a little time, patience, love and constant supply of never-ending treats can’t fix.   What works for one child, might not work for the next.  Hone in on what works for your child and add a sprinkling of praise an

Bionic Science-The Future of Prosthetic Limbs

Image
In recent years medical science has come a long way in the creation of prosthetic limbs.  Dramatic improvement for prosthetic limbs is here and gone are the days of lifeless looking arms and legs.  Cutting-edge technology has made it possible to replace these older models with compliant realistic looking silicone arms that have the robotic capability of giving disabled people the dexterity of picking up a raisin or scratching their nose.  The older models of prosthetic arms were usually based on levers that were controlled by the wearer's chin and were not capable of maintaining a good grasp. The incredible leaps and bounds that we have accomplished in prosthetics is of sheer genius.  These medical advances are giving people their lives back and especially giving hope to injured veterans.  These devices even have sensors with the intelligence and capability to sense pressure loads and actually tighten on the wearer's body and then relax when the weight is taken off.  The

Your Business on Steroids-How to Pump up a Sole Proprietorship

Building Your Business Pecks Making money and becoming a successful entrepreneur doesn’t come easily and growing your business takes time.  Like any good athlete, it takes the right mix of exercise, strength and endurance.  Your business has to outlast your competitors and provide you with a sense of security even in times of recession.  Laying the foundation is the most critical part as to whether a company will succeed in the first couple years of its infancy.   Sole proprietorships can push their companies into overdrive by including a strong financial plan and by possibly flexing a little franchising muscle. If you have a great product or service to market your business can go viral, but that’s only if you don’t spread your company to thin.  Focusing on to many products can overwhelm a business owner quickly and may leave them open to high overhead costs.  Expansive measures need to be put in place in order to pace and measure the success of any company.        Create
