Economic Times ( 11 oct )
carries following news report :
“ Govt is working on a roadmap for Emerging
Tech “
The government is looking at forming a comprehensive
strategy to ENCOURAGE and ADOPT , emerging technologies such as BLOCKCHAIN , Artificial Intelligence (
AI ) and Big Data Analytics
The idea is not just to increase their USAGE in the official machinery but also to PROMOTE the increasing number of emerging Start-Ups in this space
The exercise will also look at defining possible regulatory framework
to take care of the PRIVACY as well as other regulatory aspects . Officials of
the ministry of Electronics and IT gave a presentation to the Union Minister
Ravi Shankar Prasad in the first week of September signalling for the first
time that the government has decided to discuss a ROADMAP for these technologies
All of this is very welcome
But why are we confining ourselves to looking at / investigating /
adopting , only Internet and Software related technologies ?
There are dozens of other technologies which too need to be evaluated
and acquired ( if found suitable ) from all over the World – and from within
our own country – for solving extremely urgent problems facing the economy
If we fail to seize this opportunity ,
others will exploit these and might even monopolize these !
It was for this reason that in my following blog ( sent as email to
Policy Makers ) , I had suggested creation of :
TEAM [ Technology Evaluation and Acquisition Ministry ] (
21 April 2017
)
In that email , I had listed some 10 / 12 technologies which ( in my
opinion ) , could be deployed for attacking some of the pressing problems
And one of those “ pressing
problem “ is urban
traffic which is dominated by cars which cause following problems :
·
Traffic congestion slowing
down vehicular traffic to barely 10 km / hour
·
Parking problems
·
Pollution
To overcome these problems , I had suggested fast adoption of Geo-Orbital Electric Wheel
If you are wondering how a bicycle WHEEL could be ELECTRIC and whether
it can replace cars / motor-bikes , ( for short distances , up to 10 Km ride )
