The Evolution of an Invisible Science: From Cybernetics to Awareness Robots

English

By (author): Sandor M Veres

This captivating book delves deep into the uncharted territory of 'control science,' revealing its pivotal role as the unsung hero behind the technological wonders of our age. From the cars we drive to the gadgets we can't live without, from power networks to personal computers, from aircraft to smartphones, robots to social mediathe driving force behind them all is control science.

Embark on a journey into the visionary minds of Norbert Wiener and his fellow scientists as they conceived a groundbreaking idea in the 1940sa new science poised to revolutionize our world. Their vision sought to unravel the intricate dance of 'control and communication in animals and machines.'

In 1947, the first transistor saw the light of day, a technological marvel that would take three decades to unleash its transformative power through the marvel of microchips. Little did Wiener and his contemporaries know that their brainchild, Cybernetics, would become the catalyst for a wave of innovation beyond their wildest dreams. Often hailed as an independent science, Cybernetics has ushered in a new era, one that even Wiener could not have foreseen. Its far-reaching impact on feedback control, communication, and artificial intelligence has reshaped the fabric of our lives.

Discover the compelling narrative that unravels the mathematical foundations underpinning these life-altering technologies. The precise results of mathematics have given birth to what we now recognize as 'control science,' solidifying our place in the 'age of control' in the 21st century. Embark on this eye-opening journey that will forever change the way you perceive the world around you. Welcome to the dawn of a new era, where control is the true economic driver, and its influence knows no bounds.
