For a tech giant like Facebook, connectivity is a top priority. While over a billion people already access the apps and can be termed as “well connected”, preparation has to be done to connect with the next lot of people. Hence, Facebook is developing new technologies to connect the next billion people. Here’s all you need to know about the development.
Thanks to the work of Facebook Connectivity, more than 300 Million people have access to a faster internet. In their recent newsroom update Facebook shared the latest development of these innovative technologies which can be deployed across the world by sea, land and air to ensure equitable access to high-speed internet.
Facebook believes that as the internet is becoming more pervasive in the way we live and work, the technology hasn’t kept its pace in bringing people together online. The company has cited that nearly half the world is being left behind, “either lacking adequate access to the internet, or remaining completely unconnected.”
New breakthroughs in technology are needed to solve this challenge in order to bring more people online to a faster and more reliable internet. Facebook Connectivity works with partners to develop these technologies and bring them to people across the world. Facebook says that earlier this week its engineers shared the latest developments in an event called Inside the Lab, which aims to improve internet capacity across the world by sea, land and air. Here are some of the developments stated by them:
