Affective Computing

  • Artificial Intelligence

    Artificial Intelligence
    Philosophers Descartes, Hobbes, and Leibniz searched to find an understanding of the rational thought. This led Leibniz to explore the possibility of universal language of reasoning
  • Emerging of Electronics

    Emerging of Electronics
    Adding to Artificial Intelligence, there was neurological research done that showed the brain itself was a network of cells exchanging electrical signals.
  • World War II

    World War II
    World War II ended up giving a huge step up with Artificial Intelligence. Without the help and knowledge of England's Bletchley Park and Alan Turing the war could have lasted a lot longer than it did. This sprouted the research into Computing Machinery and Intelligence.
  • Artificial Intelligence Coming to Life/ Moore's Law

    Artificial Intelligence Coming to Life/ Moore's Law
    The term ended up being invented at a conference in Dartmouth. After many trails and errors, AI had a major success. Moore's law came into place and he projected that doubling would happen each year for a decade. Then came back in about 1975 and said that doubling would happen about once every two years
  • Entering A New Decade

    Entering A New Decade
    2000's were a pivotal decade in the phones. Although phones have been around awhile before this time, mobile phones started launching. Nokia 9210 Communicator came out and it was the first internet-enabled mobile phone. https://www.uswitch.com/mobiles/guides/history-of-mobile-phones/#:~:text=2000%3A%20Nokia%209210%20Communicator&text=The%20first%20serious%20attempt%20at,one's%20idea%20of%20pocket%2Dsized
  • Modern Day Smartphones

    Modern Day Smartphones
    The brains behind the modern day phones are insane. As USwitch describes it "Modern-day smartphones are pretty unrecognizable from the analogue bricks we used to cart around". They have an AI within it called "Siri" and can even go under water.
  • Far and Beyond

    Far and Beyond
    I predict our phones will end up looking like the one in the picture. We will eventually get to a point where there are holograms and using them throughout our day to day lives.
