Indeed it is one of the most informative and well researched channels on RUclips, do check out Kurzgesagt channel as well(if you haven't yet) BTW glad to see a fellow Fullmetal fan...
I’ve watched your animations since I was 6, I found your channel on my moms iPad and made it my goal to watch all of the videos you already had posted. I watched every single one of your videos every time they uploaded. Until now. I’m 12 now.
While we're all in lockdown and can't see each other in person, I've been video calling my dad every weekend. I'm in London and he's in Singapore, and it's almost unbelievable how little delay there is, given that it takes a person 14 hours to fly that distance.
The animation, as usual, never disappoints. It almost feels like it's getting better and better!! Every animation team understands the brief so well, and they just know what the subject matter needs. Well done again, Ted-Ed!
It still amazes me how humans managed to capture audio,photo/video and transfer them around the globe in the form of electromagnetic waves...so magical
This video was accurate up until the 2:58 mark..... 1.) Most data centers moved to fiber optics between server racks years ago, with some racks using fiber optic exclusively for high bandwidth applications. 2.) "Integrated photonics" is currently a pipedream next to everyday quantum computing, way too much has to happen before we can use the technology, like figuring out how to build it. 3.) We have a technology to convert electricity to light, it's called a modem. 4.) Researchers maybe working THz tech, but we have enough issues with day to day 60Ghz wireless, to the point, it's not used commonly yet due to pitfalls. Also, the THz spectrum is approaching the visual light spectrum. You'll need more more power as you go up to get the same results, like 300x ~ 1000x the power of used by current Wi-Fi. Also, while using that much power, it won't be able to penetrate anything whatsoever. 5.) Good luck running fiber to all those nodes that will provide coverage, even if you could convince a large Telecom to pay for that bill. The FCC or equivalent government bodies would have to give up all control on the spectrum in use and where nodes could be placed. 6.) 6G, lol, come talk to me in 25 years, then maybe we'll be there. We still haven't finished 4G, the original standard called for 1Gbps, you're lucky if you can get 2.5% of that.
Came here to say this. #2 is the big one that had me going "wait...wtf is he talking about?" because...he's referring to photonics in general, not integrated photonics. Literally all fiber requires using SFP modules, but that doesn't mean we can somehow unplug wires everywhere. Even if ALL processors WERE made of integrated photonics, you'd still have to run optical amplifiers, and those still require power.
Interesting comment, perhaps you were so eager to watch a video whose content you know so well to prove it wrong, the video simply stated facts but never anything in concrete and I personally didn't finish the video thinking that 6G will be a possibility any time soon. Again, your comment is interesting, it does not, however, make the video inaccurate
Two facts I am critical of are: 1. the limits of fiber optics. The biggest limitation of fiber optics is “modal dispersion”. Submarine cables do not simply connect one continent with another with a single long cable. The cables are actually many short sections joined by repeaters that amplify the signal. Repeaters are required every 100 kilometers, or every 50 to 100 miles. The cables include electrical lines to power the repeaters underwater. 2. The narrator states that computer servers are overworked. This is a characterization that is both undefined and not supported. Servers infrastructure is always being upgraded as a normal part of technological demand and growth.
TED-Ed , please don't change the style. Animation, background score and narration, they together give an experience of a miniature "feel-good" movie. And knowledge and information, they are bonus.
Have to mention... Dr. Thomas Mensah is a world-renowned Ghanaian-American inventor and chemical engineer. Mensah is most well-known for his pioneering innovations in fiber optics and nanotechnology.
Thank you for this video, because I was stuck in this topic for 2 today's and when I see is five minutes video the concept was instantly clear by this animation... Thanks a lot.
I never even considered asking how fibre optics worked. I had no idea it wasn't just a metal cable of some kind. TED-ed videos: answering questions I never had a burning need to know until the moment I see the title of the video.
Very excellent phyllosophy Plz make video on a topic....... Sometimes When we are watching something we realise that this scene and environment we have experienced in our past times Why this happens
Always, always, and always a very clear & interesting narration and outstanding animation. This channel makes me addicted to watch over and over again their videos. Keep up the good work, wish someday that I'll be able to be a part of Ted Ed team 😊
Ted i have a question. What if all the people decide to sing all together. Same tiem and same day what's gonna happen. Whats the hight of the sound wave can rich
The Earth is so big. And we humans are so small. Nothing special would happen. Wouldn't even notice. Also, sound can not only increase but also _decrease_ the height/amplitude of the sound wave, due to interference.
About two days ago I was thinking about how does the damn internet works and boom here it is. This vid made me go like ohh my biggg god this is genius. Thanks for the vid. Keep doing this we need this
Amazing technology of optical fiber transformed the communication world. But not much is known about the inventor of process to make optical fiber, Mr. Narinder Singh Kapanny, a sikh gentleman, an another unsung hero proclaimed by Forbes magazine. I think TedEd should make video on his life and achievements.
if possible could u tell me ur animation software...ur videos are great and the fact that visual media is registered faster in our brains than theoretical can be easily seen here...
I am still not understanding how TED-ED manages to read my mind and answers my questions before I can even ask them about it, which by the way blows my mind...Which is why I consider them the most best educational channel on RUclips , actually the whole Internet, how ironic!
I was thinking this morning on how total refraction is possible. Actually, I was thinking about how refractions happens at all. It is said that light moves slower on some mediums than others (because it needs to walk a longer path than what it would in a vacuum, which is a clarification required because the speed of light is always constant). How is that light interacts with matter? By knowing the chemical composition and the lattice formation of a crystal, could one say confidently how much the light will move slower on the given material?
Ted-ed, awesome as usual, this time I want to congratulate you as well as narrator . What amazingly calm voice this person has. Makes learning more interesting. For many of Ted-ed's videos, this voice has been a trademark !!! Salute sir.
