Evaluation

Whilst looking at Emerging New Technologies I have learned lots of interesting things. I thought the 3D printer was really interesting and what it could do in the future. I thought what we have been doing for the last couple of weeks was really good. I didn't find anything boring it was really fun. The play station 4 wasn't really my thing but it was okay when I started looking at it. :)

Mobile Payment


Mobile Wallet

Mobile payment has become more popular but I think it will eventually be what everyone does. 
So instead of carrying cards, cash or a check to buy your food all you would need is your phone to pay for things. In some ways this is good because you don't need to carry anything but your phone. But in other ways what would happen if you lost your mobile or it got stolen? And someone managed to get into your bank details. I think if this gets more popular that they would need to make sure that your details are safe and that know one can get them.

Future Gaming


  • This is the PlayStation 4 controller from the front and the back. The play Station controller is to make the player have a better experience. 
  • The controller comes with a touch pad, a share button so you easily share with your friends. Or even see how your friends are getting on and maybe help them if they can't get past a level. 
  •   The console also includes new hardware dedicated to video compression to make it a more social device.
  • Most games at the moment will not be run on the new console  But it could change. 
  •  When they announced it they only showed the controller they didn't show how much the PlayStation 4 is going to be or what it looks like. 
  • It should be out for Christmas.
