Pattern Recognition: This type  of software  uses of a  camera  and
                                             software  that  together  identify  repetitive  patterns  and  establish

                                             connections  between  the  patterns  stored  in the database  and  the
                                             perceived  patterns.  Facial recognition  software,  video  surveillance
                                             cameras, fingerprint  identification and automatic voice recognition
                     Pattern Recognition     software are some examples of pattern recognition software.

                       Robotics: Shakey was the first robot that used AI to navigate. It was
                     developed in Artificial Intelligence Center of the Stanford Research
                     Institute (SRI) from 1966 to 1972. There are so many robots that
                     use AI such as Rosie and Roscoe are  used in hospitals to supply
                     medicines, Robodoc performs hip implant surgeries, Roomba and                     Robotics
                     Scooba can do housework such as cleaning the floor, etc.

                                               Intelligent Apps (I-Apps): Intelligent Apps are the softwares written
                                             for mobile devices based on artificial intelligence and machine learning
                                             technology, aimed at making everyday tasks easier. This involves tasks
                                             like organising and prioritising emails, scheduling meetings, logging
                                             interactions, content, etc. Some familiar examples of I-Apps are chatbots
                      Intelligent Apps
                                             and virtual assistants.


                      BLOCKCHAIN
                  Blockchain refers to a decentralised system of recording information that makes it difficult or
                  impossible to change, hack, or cheat the system. Every business runs on information and blockchain
                  is a shared ledger on which transactions are recorded and assets (tangible or intangible) in a

                  business network. Tangible assets include houses, cars, cash, lands, etc. and intangible assets
                  include intellectual property, patents, copyrights, branding, etc.
                  It is a distributed digital ledger of transactions that is duplicated and distributed across the
                  entire network of computers on the blockchain. Each block in a chain may contains a record
                  of multiple transactions. When a new transaction occurs, it is added to the blockchain and

                  recorded in every participant’s ledger. Anything that carries value can be recorded and tracked
                  and can be traded on a blockchain network ensuring transparency, security, and immutability
                  in the exchange of assets.

                    Blockchains use various consensus algorithms, such as Proof of Work (PoW), Proof of
                    Stake (PoS) and Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS)to validate transactions and maintain
                    network integrity.



                      AUGMENTED REALITY AND VIRTUAL REALITY

                  Although the term Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) are used together, there is a
                  distinct difference between the two.
