Revolution
means abrupt and radical change. Revolutions have happened
throughout history when new technologies identifying the world produce a
profound change in economic systems and social structures.
That profound change also shifts our way of living in every aspect.
Thousands
of years ago humans evolved from animals and by the use of their brains, they
start using other animals for their transportation, farming, food source, and
communication. That is the beginning of the revolution. by that change, humans
change their way of living. Still in this time animals are used for sports,
research, transportation, food source, and for companionship.
The
First industrial revolution
In the first industrial revolution, Textile was the most dominant industry in terms of employment, and investment. Mechanized textile production spread from Great Britain to Europe, the US, and Asia.
The Second
Industrial Revolution
The
first industrial revolution was interrupted because the middle of the 19th
century was the phase of new innovative inventions and scientific discoveries.
But improvements in science weren’t limited to the laboratory. Scientific
philosophies were brought right into the factories. The second industrial
revolution, which started in the late 19th century and into the early 20th
century, was when Henry Ford mastered the moving assembly line and ushered in
the age of mass production.
Rapid
advances in the making of steel, chemicals, and electricity helped the mass
production of consumer goods and fuels. At the same time, ideas and news spread
via telephone, newspapers, and radio, which culminated in a new wave of
globalization and urbanization.
The third
industrial revolution
Beginning
within the 1950s, the third industrial revolution brought semiconductors,
computing devices, smart personal computers, and also the Internet. that's why
it is also called the digital revolution. Things that used to be analog moved to
digital technologies, like an old television you used to tune-up with an
antenna being replaced by an Internet-connected tablet that enables you to
stream videos.
The move from analog electronic and mechanical devices to pervasive digital technology intensely disrupted industries, especially global communications and energy. Information technology and microprocessor chip began to automate production and take supply chains global.
The fourth industrial revolution
The fourth industrial revolution is started. Yes! Can you believe you are experiencing it in your day-to-day life? The concept of the Fourth Industrial Revolution was coined in 2016 by Klaus Schwab, the founder of the World Economic Forum, In his book The fourth industrial revolution.
"The Fourth Industrial Revolution creates a world in which virtual and physical systems of manufacturing cooperate with each other in a flexible way at the global level"
It is the fusion of so many new technologies and their interaction across the physical, digital and biological domains that make industry 4.0 fundamentally different from previous revolutions. It includes Artificial intelligence, robotics, the Internet of things, Blockchain, Virtual reality and augmented reality, Genetic engineering, 3D printing, cloud computing, smart factories, and much more………..
