Digital Frontiers in Storytelling & Narrative Revolution | Chapter 25 | Digital Crossroads: Integrating Humanities, Science and Technology Edition 1

This article explores the revolutionary impact of digital technology on the art of storytelling, ushering in a narrative revolution that alters how we produce, consume, and interact with stories. Investigating the convergence of digital media, narrative structures, and human experience, we demonstrate digital storytelling's tremendous potential to democratize, diversify, and magnify the narrative landscape. Through a direct critical examination of emerging digital storytelling forms such as immersive experiences, interactive documentaries, and transmedia narratives, it was possible to reveal important trends, difficulties, and opportunities in this quickly growing industry. Nowadays storytelling serves as a powerful tool in TLP. It promotes critical thinking, creativity, and collaboration, making it an invaluable resource for educators and learners alike. From personal records to corporate branding and social advocacy campaigns, digital storytelling is revolutionizing how stories are told, shared, and experienced in the 21st century. We can witness the fundamental effects of this narrative revolution on the future of storytelling, media, and society by examining how digital storytelling challenges traditional notions of narrative authority, empowers new voices, and fosters empathy.

From Perception to Adoption: Malaysian Bank Customers' Journey to Digital Banking | Chapter 9 | Business, Management and Economics: Research Progress Vol. 10

The wave of digitalisation has hit almost all industries worldwide, regardless of small or large industries, including banking. Digital banking is a new idea that represents a comprehensive shift towards a fully digital paradigm. With the arrival of disruptive technology, digital banking has changed dramatically over the years. Furthermore, the growing use of advanced technologies on digital banking platforms creates an excellent opportunity to help customers in doing their transactions more quickly and effectively. Although digital technology has developed rapidly and made banking easier, some users are aware of its existence but reluctant to use it. Despite the trend towards digital banking, its adoption rate is still low. Therefore, increasing the adoption of digital banking is important to ensure its success in Malaysia. The Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) was used in this study to investigate the impact of perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, peer influence, and perceived trust on attitudes and how attitudes influence intentions to use digital banking. This study used a quantitative approach with primary data using a Likert scale survey. A purposive non-random sampling technique was used in this study, and the data obtained were cleaned and analysed using SPSS software. Further analysis was performed using a partial least squares structural equation model with SmartPLS3 to assess reliability and validity and test the study hypotheses. The findings showed that attitude significantly impacts the intention to use digital banking, confirming its role in adoption. Perceived usefulness is the most important factor in shaping attitude, followed by perceived trust, peer influence, and perceived ease of use. All proposed hypotheses were supported, highlighting the significance of these factors in fostering a positive attitude towards digital banking and driving its adoption. The findings will assist the banking industry in developing strategies to ensure customers fully adopt digital banking.

An Approach towards Traditional Judicial Systems to Digital Forms of Evidence | Chapter 10 | Technological Innovation in Engineering Research Vol. 5

There were many critics of the present administration's "Digital India" initiative at first. However, with its finger on the pulse of Young, Emerging India, several facilitations were offered with the single purpose of connecting technology with the general public. Thus, even in previously inaccessible locations, smart phones, laptops, and computers are becoming household names. On the other side, however, we also observe a sharp rise in crimes perpetrated online and using computers. Technology is a phenomena that changes constantly. It never stops evolving, modernising, or even renewing itself. Alongside the development of contemporary technology and hi-tech tools and equipment, crime has also increased. A perpetrator can easily plan, carry out, and finish a crime without being physically present at the crime scene thanks to the shift of criminal activity from the physical to the digital realm. This makes it challenging for investigators, law enforcement officials, and traditional legal systems that only consider physical evidence to identify the true perpetrator, establish guilt, and determine the seriousness of punishment. Using a desktop computer, a laptop, or even a smartphone, a criminal may carry out an illegal act while miles away from the scene of the crime, leaving no physical evidence of the crime's commission. They can also take use of web servers, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and 4G data transmission rates. In these circumstances, Digital footprints must be used since they are the only means to confirm that an illegal conduct was actually carried out and to find the person who did it. Digital footprints must be given their due in the current judicial system to aid in establishing the execution of an unlawful conduct, identifying the true offender, and calculating the appropriate level of punishment because the IPC's guiding concept is "Innocent until proven guilty." This essay aims to demonstrate the importance of digital footprints and how they are used by the current justice systems to confirm, attest to, and support the commission of an illegal act.

Study on Bioluminescent Detection of the SARS-CoV-2 ORF1ab Gene by Coupling Isothermal RNA Reverse Transcription Amplification with a Digital PCR: A Novel Approach | Chapter 10 | Recent Progress in Microbiology and Biotechnology Vol. 7

 The COVID-19 pandemic, which began in December 2019 and is caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, is a global public health emergency. We developed a more sensitive and improved method for detecting SARS-CoV-2 by combining bioluminescence in real-time (BART) and reverse-transcriptase loop-mediated amplification (RT-LAMP) protocols (RT-LAMP- BART), which was also compatible with a digital LAMP system (Rainsuit), which did not allow for real-time quantification but did allow absolute quantification with a spectrophotometer. We also developed a simulated digital RT-LAMP approach using this same principle to enlarge the overall reaction volume and achieve real-time detection with a limit of detection of 10 copies/mL, with further improvements in the overall dynamic range of this assay system being achieved through improving RNA availability in samples to ensure the target RNA present in reaction. This study's innovative approach is critical for reliable detection and sequencing of numerous viruses.

Blood Pressure Measurement with Digital Baumanometers | Chapter 15 | Research Trends and Challenges in Medical Science Vol. 3

Aims: Identify the correlation between systolic and diastolic Blood pressure measurement with digital arm and wrist baumanometers in young adults aged 18 to 40 at the Public University of Celaya, Guanajuato, Mexico. Study Design: Observational, analytical, quantitative, correlational, diagnostics. Place of Study: Public University of Celaya, Guanajuato, Mexico. Methodology: We included 397 participants of an age range between 18 and 40 years; which 287 were women and 110 were men; with an average weight of 65.28 ± 15.08, and of stature 1.63 ± 0.09. Two types of digital, wrist and arm baumanometers were used to measure the systolic and diastolic blood pressure to observe the effectiveness of the values recorded during the measurement. Results: The correlation between the 3 measurements of the systolic blood pressure was repeated in the first and third measurements (r = 0.46) and varied in the second (r = 0.39), in all three the value recorded by the highest arm baumanometer was found. In the 3 measurements of the diastolic blood pressure the correlation varied (r = 0.54, r = 0.50, r = 0.59); registering the highest value in the measurement with the arm baumanometer. Conclusion: The correlation between the measurements with the baumanometers was not perfect, however it was good, it was considered that the measurement of blood pressure with the wrist baumanometer should be done with the wrist at the level of the heart; as well as movements of arm, hand or fingers will alter the result.
