There are so many reasons to love technology. Through the years, advancements in tech have changed so much about the world. It's made everyone more efficient and productive. Technology has improved the way we carry out our daily jobs. We can communicate with each other a lot better too; the list goes on and on.
Personally, there's something I put right at the top of the list that sometimes goes unnoticed. I love technology because it's made our lives a lot safer. There have been countless bits of tech that have added an extra level of safety to people's lives.
I thought it would be fun to pick out a few things that have improved general safety levels for people. Some of this stuff aren't advanced and crazy tech, but it's still being used and is highly effective. So, before I bore you to death with my blabbering, here is some awesome tech that's made people safer:
I think that people under-appreciate how good CCTV cameras are. Sure, they're not overly complicated, but they're a great piece of tech. People use these every day to remain a lot safer and feel more secure. Primarily, you see them used by businesses and schools to ward off intruders. The difference it can make to safety is unbelievable. No one will try and break into a place with cameras everywhere. There are so many different security cameras out there; you can have a read around online for more information . They vary in how high-tech they are, but all serve the same purpose; keep people safe.
Car Tech
There is loads of car tech out there that keeps you safe every day. Most cars will have parking assist features that make it safer for you to reverse. Lots of accidents happen because people reverse into something they didn't see. You also have steering assist to help you control your car a lot better too. Plus, some cars are fitted with braking assistance to prevent crashes. All in all, car tech is there to keep drivers safe on the roads. It's so important to everyday life!
Similar to CCTV cameras, motion sensors have been around for years. Most houses should have some kind of motion sensor system set up. The idea is that, during the night, sensors will pick up on any movement. So, if someone tries breaking in, your motion sensors will alert you. These days, you can set up a security system so motion sensors send an alert to your phone. This way, you'll know when someone is sneaking around outside your house late at night. It helps make you feel a lot safer in your home.
See, I told you that technology helped keep you safe! The crazy thing is, these are just three examples, there are tonnes more. We undervalue how much good stuff technology does for our lives because we're too focused on cool things. We like cool smartphones and stuff like that. Sometimes, we fail to realise how safe we are thanks to tech. Personally, I can't wait to see what the future has in store for us!
