Includes bibliographical references and index.In Magnitude, Kimberly Arcand and Megan Watzke take us on an expansive journey to the limits of size, mass, distance, time, temperature in our universe, from the tiniest particle within the structure of an atom to the most massive galaxy in the universe; from the speed at which grass grows (about 2 to 6 inches a month) to the speed of light. Fully-illustrated with four-color drawings and infographics throughout and organized into sections including Size and Amount (Distance, Area, Volume, Mass, Time, Temperature), Motion and Rate (Speed, Acceleration, Density, Rotation), and Phenomena and Processes (Energy, Pressure, Sound, Wind, Computation), Magnitude shows us the scale of our world in a clear, visual way that our relatively medium-sized human brains can easily understand.--Amazon

Instructor: Laura J. Bottomley, director of Women in Engineering, Engineering Education, and the Engineering Place at NC State University.To many of us, electricity can still seem like the "magic" our ancestors imagined it to be when they saw it in the natural world. But the science of electricity is considerably more amazing than magic, as you'll see in the 24 fascinating lectures of Electrical Engineering for Everyone. With dozens of live demonstrations, along with explanatory graphics and video, Dr. Laura J. Bottomley brings you on the amazing journey of electrical engineering, the discipline that has taken us from the electric lightbulb to interstellar space to artificial intelligence in less than 150 years.DVD; widescreen

The sound of the future : the coming age of voice technology / by Dengel, Tobias,author.(CARDINAL)878521; Weber, Karl,1953-author.(CARDINAL)300198;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 297-314) and index.Prologue: the power and potential of voice technology -- Introduction: unmistakable signs of the impending voice-technology wave -- The human needs met by voice technology. Speed: increasing the efficiency of every human-machine interaction -- Safety: creating a less dangerous world -- Knowledge: getting critical information when and where you need it -- Inclusion: creating a world where no one is left behind -- Engagement: making life more creative, entertaining, and enjoyable -- Transformation: voice-enabled business models that will change industry landscapes -- Rise to the challenge. Falling barriers: overcoming the technical, organizational, and social challenges to voice technology -- Making voice an integral part of your existing business systems -- Training voice tools to understand your world -- Designing and redesigning the multimodal user experience."Voice is the next technology--remarkably similar in potential impact to the Internet and mobile computing--poised to change the way the world works. Tobias Dengel is in the vanguard of this breakthrough, understanding the deep, wide-ranging implications voice will have for every industry. And here he connects the dots about this emerging paradigm to vividly illustrate how business leaders can stay ahead of the game, rather than scrambling to catch up, as voice technology gradually reveals its power, creating a host of new winners and losers. Using fascinating, colorful stories, Dengel explains how the "voice-first" experience is becoming part of the global technology mainstream, exploring the ways voice will do a better job of serving basic human needs such as safety, speed, accuracy, convenience, and fun, as well as making it possible for hundreds of millions of people around the planet to participate more fully and productively in today's high-tech world by making interactions with technology virtually effortless. A pervasive technology like the Internet and mobile, voice, with applications in marketing, sales, service, manufacturing, and logistics, will change the way we work at every level and every function, driving down costs, boosting productivity, and enabling the creation of entirely new business models. This is not simply about Siri and Alexa. They are the tantalizing but incomplete precursors of the ultimate interface that will make technology easier, faster, more accurate, and more human."--
