Question

what is social imoact of convergence of technology ?

Answer 1

Apple is the master of consumer driven technology convergence. They were the first to release a cell phone with a multi-touch interface that combined multiple technologies and functions to eliminate the need to carry many separate single-function devices.

It set the wave in motion for many to follow and further innovate.

This, however, is just one well-known example of converging technologies with capabilities that impact so many on personal and professional levels.
