The Coming Shakeout

Disruption is as old as history. It happened from when the Mesopotamians invented the wheel, to the Steam Age and then on to the Industrial Age. But, unlike in the past, today’s technology is disrupting a wide swathe of industries in a manner that has simply no precedence.

Connected Devices Are Here

India is taking the first steps to 5G, which offers data speeds that are 20 times faster and allows 100 times more devices to be connected compared to 4G. But the crucial difference between 4G and 5G is the 1/10th latency in data transmission or the time taken for a packet of data to reach from one point to another. Be it agriculture or automobiles, 5G is going to disrupt every industry.

Quantum Jump

Quantum computing is where artificial intelligence was 20 years ago. Given the ease with which this technology takes hold, and that quantum systems are on the cloud, it is available to everyone.

An Autonomous Revolution

India is now the fifth-largest automotive market. It is also home to nine out of ten most polluted cities in the world. Further rapid urbanisation and spread of cities will require it to adopt innovative mobility solutions such as Mobility as a Service and shared mobility, cleaner EV technologies, and autonomous vehicles that are also less polluting. Faster mobility will also be the key to industry's efficiency.

Reshaping Mobility

By 2030, India will have at least seven mega cities with a population of over 10 million and nearly 50 cities that are at least a million strong. Sustainable mobility solutions will be needed, which is where technology will make a big difference. India has also made commitments for climate action and clean energy development. So, sustainable mobility is a need rather than a want, and it is imperative to develop a widely accepted and available ecosystem that supports electric vehicles, says Pawan Goenka

Is It Time For Drone Taxis?

Drone taxis can be a solution to both road congestion and the heavy need for infrastructure.They can reduce our reliance on road or groundbased infrastructure, which will encourage expansion of suburban or rural centres. But before that happens, the technology and regulatory set-up has to be put in place.

Drones: The New Frontier

Drones are about to open up a completely new dimension in application areas as diverse as photography, delivery and security. From a 2-D world where cars and delivery vans run the length and breadth of a country, people and goods can soon take to the air. Such innovations bring new opportunities for entrepreneurs, but also need deft regulatory support, says Jayant Sinha

The New Skyways

As developed nations start using Autonomous Flying Vehicles to offer a multitude of services, Indian drone service providers face a multitude of problems. There are many regulatory challenges as use of large parts of India’s airspace is restricted. The government needs to act quickly so that people and businesses can enjoy the benefits that AFVs offer.

The Modal Model

The government's larger initiatives like GST and specific ones to transform ports such as Sagarmala, Bharatmala, Dedicated Freight Corridors and relaxation in Cabotage Law, in tandem with technological innovations such as IoT, robotics, and unmanned vehicles and equipment, will first impact transportation of containers, rather than passengers.

Caution: Tech At Work

The staid construction industry is rewriting the rules as companies use next-gen technologies. Components are tagged from origin to consumption using sensors. Similarly, biometrics give the management a quick idea about skills, qualifications and expertise of workmen on a continuous basis, says S.N. Subrahmanyan
