Emerging technology trends by 2020
By Rita Koch
In today’s tidal wave of tech advances, from the advent of digital robotics, including personal assistants to a 1-day shipping bet of Amazon Prime and the explosion of voice control. During 2017, Amazon prime had become a US sales market of $1.8B and has been expected to grow to about $40B by 2022. The promise by Amazon Prime to target Prime customers in the supply chain and also get them the orders every 24 hours has shaken their online retail environment. Chatbots have been also widely introduced this year. Thus, consumers, who might otherwise have to contact or send forms, were exceptionally well received, and we're as much as midway across 2019; it's also time to question: what significant changes to tech would impact the way of living and functioning in 2020?
在当今技术进步的浪潮中，科技日新月异的应用于我们的日常生活。2020年哪些技术的重大变革将会改变人们的生活方式？
AI-as-a-service
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been one of today's most disruptive engineering innovations. As I found out in my textbook ' Artificial Intelligence in Action,' many organizations have started to explore that they can use AI to enhance customer satisfaction to streamline the company. It will begin in 2020, and even though humans are becoming more and more aware of working of AIs closely, developing and implementing AI-based systems become a costly idea to most companies.
For a reason, many of the AI apps will continue to be produced by as-a-service system vendors, enabling us to feed into the information and compensate for the software or measure assets because we use them.
人工智能服务
因为基于AI的开发和实施对大多数公司而言仍然成本昂贵，所以很多公司开始基于云服务的人工智能服务。
5G data network
The fifth-generation for mobile internet access providers with extremely-fast download and upload rates and more secure connections. Although 5G mobile data services also became usable in 2019, these were still mostly limited and expensive to run in confined spaces or significant towns. 2020 is expected to be the year when 5G truly begins operating, with more competitive phone plans and much better coverage, so that everyone can join in the fun.
It will not only ridiculously provide high-speed data systems, but it will also allow us to download high-quality movies and music when we are on the run. The significantly increased rates imply that even cable networks that reach through houses and businesses will become more accessible than cellular networks. Companies must understand the market benefits of having extremely fast and secure access to the internet everywhere. The expanded bandwidth will enable more information to be gathered and transmitted by computers, robotics, including autonomous vehicles, than ever, contributing to developments throughout the Internet of Things (IoT), including the smart machinery sector.
5G网络
尽管5G移动互联网服务在2019年也已开始使用，但仅仅是部分领域，仍然非常有限且昂贵。预计2020年将是5G真正开始运营的一年，更便宜的套餐和更好的覆盖范围，使每个人都可以参与其中。
Momentary Markets
Capturing "momentary audiences" in actual time can change the face for consumer insights and marketing in ways that are hard to envision. When virtual environments become more complex and narrowed down for each moment's unique truth, global trends in innovation should converge with more personalized and on-demand interactions to satisfy customer needs.
For that, businesses would need to merge real-time monitoring tools with complex back-end systems to meet customer requirements that are continually changing.
Combining this with continually changing online data should open up new opportunities for companies to address unmet client needs.
“瞬时市场”
实时获取“即时受众”以难以想象的方式改变消费者观点和营销的面貌。企业将实时监控工具与复杂的后端系统合并，以满足不断变化的客户需求。埃森哲在其最新发布的《技术展望2019》报告中指出，59%的中国消费者认为他们购买的不仅仅是商品，更是购买了一种体验。一个充满了众多“现实” 和“时机”的多元商业世界正在诞生，个性化市场上每一个短暂“时机”，都可以被视为单独的市场。
Computer Vision
In internet terms, "sight" involves devices capable of identifying visual images, things, locations, artefacts, or individuals – those captured by a camera or detector. Its technology provides the smartphone camera to know that aspect of the picture it detects is a face, including control technologies like Google search.
When we progress into 2020, devices and software fitted with computer vision will be carried out after an ever-increasing variety of uses. The direction autonomous cars "think" and work their way through risk is critical. Assembly lines will use computer vision devices to check for faulty products with mechanical failures, so surveillance cameras should be able to notify us of something suspicious through 24/7 supervision.
计算机视觉
计算机视觉是一门研究如何用摄影机和计算机代替人眼对目标进行跟踪、识别、分析、处理等。此过程极具挑战性，光是隔离图像并进行识别的简单概念就花费了研究人员大量的时间。经过多年的努力，使用计算机视觉软件和硬件算法部署深度学习技术的企业在识别对象方面都取得了一定程度的成功。计算机视觉产品市场将在2022年达到全新的高度，最大的增长将出现在智能驾驶，工业视觉检测紧随其后。2022年将有众多半导体、元件制造商等硬件公司和软件公司将投入大量资金支持计算机视觉产品的开发。
Human Workforce Reskilling
At the pace at which robots are evolving, it will be a should-have in that latest technology developments in 2020 to improve the technological maturity of human workers. The current human population is grappling with a dynamic technological revolution in which the internet, automation, and virtual wave may be central for groundwork; however, no longer our crown jewels among "disruptive technologies."
However, in pre-digital contexts, they were still hired, educated, and assessed. Organizations will have to prepare their staff in a post-digital way to integrate that new 2020 technologies. For example, this next-gen population needs to educate in Virtual reality, Virtual Reality, Blockchain, Artificial intelligence, among other future tech developments that are expected to appear throughout the 2020 dream of innovation.
人力技能再培训
2020年新技术发展的条件，是提高人工技术的成熟度。当前的环境中，首要的是预备好你的员工。需要对下一代人才在虚拟现实，区块链，人工智能以及其他技术方面进行培训普及。
