In the past few years, Internet of Things (IoT) has led to multiple devices interacting with humans as well as other devices, helping create a huge network of these entities that share data on a regular basis. The use cases of IoT technology have become synonymous with devices used to enable "Smart Home", wherein various applications inside the house are usually controlled using smartphones or smart speakers.These Smart Speakers and Smart Phones are enabled using Voice Assistants developed by various Tech Giants from all over the world. Various Tech Companies have developed their own Voice Assistants that are integrated in multiple devices, ranging from Smart phones, Smart Speakers to Smart TVs. Using their ability to connect to the Internet and the eco-system formed by the Tech Giants, Voice Assistants are helping to improve the quality of life.Despite the extensive coverage in media, review of Literature showed that no such research about adoption of Voice Assistants by Indian Consumers has been conducted. There hasn't been any study that evaluates factors that influence the adoption of Voice Assistants by Indian Consumers. That is the gap which this research addresses and tries to fill. Through this study, we aim to build a model which finds out Indian consumers' acceptance of Voice Assistants for this technology to reach commercialisation.The purpose of this study is to explore the user attitudes, satisfaction, and other factors governing and encouraging or discouraging the intention of Indian Consumers to adopt Voice Assistants. Through analysis, we can find out the inconveniences of adoption and usage process and propose the direction of product improvement.
May it is the destruction of Jerusalem temple in 587BC or the infamous disaster in a mall in the Philippines in December 2017, a fire was the major culprit. Fire is one of the most severe and frequent disasters faced by the mankind especially in the machine age. Our project focuses on extinguishing such city fires with the help of a specially designed robot. The proposed robot would climb up a pole which can easily be constructed with minimal expenditures and efforts during or after the construction of the building. The robot being able to climb pole, would be able to traverse upwards, no matter at what height the fire is set. This versatility would eliminate the problems posed due to insufficiently long ladders (100 feet maximum) with the firefighting department. The robot is also equipped with a motor controlled nuzzling arrangement which will allow spraying the water jet in all possible directions. Such use of technology also safeguards the lives of firefighters which in conventional methods are put in danger. The robot will be equipped with a camera at the top which would enable the controller to judge the intensity and severity of the fire. The robot can be wirelessly controlled using radio controlled device which can control the locomotion of robot, direction control of water jet and an LCD which can display the camera sight.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
