Everyday Technology provides a clear, student-friendly explanation of what it is, where it came from, and how we use it every day. The systems, tools, and devices that everyday people use to make their lives easier, faster, safer, or more enjoyable are referred to as "everyday technology." Because they are so prevalent, we rarely even consider these technologies until they fail. They help us: communicate (through messaging apps and phones); travel (through automobiles, GPS, and stop signs); work and study (through computers, printers, and software). * Manage home life (washing machines, microwaves, smart thermostats)
* Stay occupied (via gaming consoles, streaming services, and televisions) In a nutshell, everyday technology alleviates real-world issues and facilitates everyday tasks. ### The Development of Modern Technology Human needs have changed in tandem with the development of modern technology. *Prehistoric tools: Humans were able to survive on primitive technologies like fire, stone tools, and basic shelters. * The mechanical and agricultural era**: Clocks, plows, and water wheels made farming and time management simpler. * The Industrial Revolution, which lasted from the 18th century to the 19th, saw the rise of steam engines, sewing machines, factory machinery, and new ways to get around. * The 20th century: Electricity, automobiles, household appliances like washers and refrigerators, telephones, and radios all became commonplace. * The digital age, from the late 20th century to the present: today, computers, smartphones, the internet, and smart devices dominate everyday technology because they connect people from all over the world and automate a variety of tasks.
