Drones, AI, and Smart Meetings at the Beginning of the Microsoft Build Conference

Microsoft highlighted its collaboration with drone-maker DJI.

Microsoft

Microsoft kicked off its annual conference for developers, called Build, on Monday. “The world is becoming a computer,” Satya Nadella, the company’s CEO, said towards the beginning of his keynote address, describing the way that computing power is starting to be found everywhere, from cars to drones to homes. That pretty unsurprising idea, plus heavy doses of talk about artificial intelligence, AI and accessibility, mixed reality, chatbots, the cloud, and the “edge”—the computers and phones you actually interact with—defined the first hours of the event.

We got to see Alexa and Cortana hanging out

We live in a world of talking digital helpers, from Siri, to the Google Assistant, to Amazon Alexa, and Microsoft’s version, Cortana. While Amazon and Microsoft announced back in August of last year that the two companies would be collaborating to make their two virtual assistants work together, today we saw a version of that in action.
If you’re imagining Alexa and Cortana freely talking to each other like two robotic hosts in Westworld, you are out of luck. However, what they showed was still interesting.
Meghan Saunders, general manager for Cortana at Microsoft, and Tom Taylor, a senior vice president for Alexa at Amazon, joined each other on stage for a demonstration. Speaking into an Echo, Saunders added an item to her shopping list through Alexa, then asked Alexa to open Cortana. From there, Cortana spoke to Saunders through the Echo, read her schedule out loud, then helped her send an email to Taylor.
Taylor then started speaking with Cortana from a computer, then asked it to open Alexa. Alexa spoke to him through the computer, then called him an Uber to a restaurant called Harvest Vine.
The system, still in beta, feels a little bit silly—asking one virtual assistant to let you speak with another seems less efficient than just only speaking to one of them—but still, it’s nice to see the robots getting along and it’s conceivable that this be helpful for some people in specific situations.

Drones and AI

Microsoft is working with drone-making giant DJI, and showcased the intersection of artificial intelligence and unmanned aerial vehicles on stage. In a demonstration, a DJI Mavic Air drone flew around and live-streamed a video feed of industrial-looking pipes onstage that had a simulated problem with them; a laptop receiving the livestream used AI on it to inspect the video in real time and identify an anomaly, shown with a yellow box around it on screen.
It’s easy to see how this kind of feature would be helpful for industries with tons of equipment to inspect—a human flies a drone, and instead of people eyeballing everything, the AI looks for problems and highlights them. And since the AI analysis is happening right on the laptop (it can also run directly onboard a bigger, fancier drone call the DJI M200), the company’s data doesn’t have to go up to a cloud for analysis.

Smart meetings

At another moment, Microsoft’s Raanah Amjadi showed a concept of how a prototype device could help out during a meeting. They simulated a meeting about “smart buildings” right on stage that felt very futuristic and incredibly canned.
But the pyramid-like prototype device on the table, equipped with the ability to both listen and see the meeting, did cool stuff. For one thing, it was able to visually identify—and then greet outloud—the people who physically walked into the meeting, saying “Hello Dave,” when someone named Dave Brown entered.
On a screen in the meeting room, the system recognized who was talking and took down a transcript in real time of what everyone said. In a column next to the transcript, the AI also made a note of follow-up items that appeared to be automatically generated when someone said the phrase “follow up” in a sentence. The set-up can also give a remote worker a live translation into a different language.
So if you’re excited for a future where there’s automatically a record of every silly thing you say in a meeting and the follow-up items are instantly written down, Microsoft could someday make you happy.

Satellite Communication and Bangladesh be Benefited by the Bangabandhu Satellite

Advantages and disadvantages of Satellite Communication:  

This page covers advantages and disadvantages of Satellite Communication. It mentions Satellite Communication advantages and Satellite Communication disadvantages.
As we know satellite communication uses satellite placed above earth for communication by VSATs placed on the earth. It is also used for TV broadcasting. Satellites uses microwave frequencies for communication with each other using inter-satellite links and with earth stations or VSATs. There are different types of satellite based on applications and their orbits.


The figure-1 depicts typical satellite satellite. As shown it consists of space segment, ground segment and TT&C (Tracking Telemetry & command station OR satellite control center).
The duplexing techniques such as FDD/TDD and multiple access techniques such as FDMA/TDMA/CDMA are used to separate signals. This will help in efficient usage of satellite transponder bandwidth. VSAT basics and satellite basics for more information.

Advantages of Satellite Communication

Following are the advantages of Satellite Communication:
➨It is used for mobile and wireless communication applications independent of location.
➨It covers wide area of the earth hence entire country or region can be covered with just one satellite.
➨It provides wider bandwidth based on SCPC or MCPC allocation types.
➨It co-exists with terrestrial microwave line of sight communication.
➨It is easy to install and manage the ground station sites.
➨It does not incur much of the costs per VSAT site.
➨It is used for voice, data, video and any other information transmission. Satellite system can be interfaced with internet infrastructure to obtain internet service. It is also used for GPS applications in various mobile devices for location determination.
➨It is easy to obtain service from one single provider and uniform service is available.
➨It has small fading margin on the order of about 3dB.
➨It is used in wide variety of applications which include weather forecasting, radio/TV signal broadcasting, gathering intelligence in military, navigation of ships and aircrafts, global mobile communication, connecting remote areas etc.
➨LEO and MEO satellite types have lower propagation delay and lower losses compare to GEO satellite. This will help them to be used for global coverage.

Disadvantages of Satellite Communication

Following are the disadvantages of Satellite Communication:
➨Satellite manufacturing requires more time. Moreover satellite design and development requires higher cost.
➨Satellite once launched, requires to be monitored and controlled on regular periods so that it remains in the orbit.
➨Satellite has life which is about 12-15 years. Due to this fact, another launch has to be planned before it becomes un-operational.
➨Redundant components are used in the network design. This incur more cost in the installation phase.
➨In the case of LEO/MEO, large number of satellites are needed to cover radius of earth. Moreover satellite visibility from earth is for very short duration which requires fast satellite to satellite handover. This makes system very complex.
Also refer advantages and disadvantages of LEO >>, MEO >> and GEO >> satellite orbits.

 Bangabandhu Communication satellite is the first satellite of Bangladesh which will be launched using vehicle SpaceX & Falcon-9 from the Cape Canaveral launch pad on 16th December 2017 & it will start its commercial operation from March 2018.

This satellite will bring enormous development & uninterrupted telecommunication System in Bangladesh especially in television, telephone & Internet service which Bangladesh usually purchase from overseas.

At present Bangladesh is spending annually more than $14 million on satellite rent to ensure connectivity of television, radio, telephone and Internet. So this satellite will make Bangladesh self-contained & Bangladesh will also earn some foreign currency by broadcasting service.

India & Pakistan have their own satellites, Sri-Lanka is in queue. So Bangladesh rent service to Nepal, Myanmar or Bhutan & may earn more than $50 million per year.

Finally communication system of Bangladesh will get new progression of development. This satellite will give Bangladesh a long term service to a large scalability, global availability, reliability, versatility & super performance.

Some sectors like telemedicine, e-learning, e-researchs, video conference, defence & disaster management system will be improved for this satellite in Bangladesh.
