A. Understanding the tech
- What are they? What do they do? On a conceptual level ? (abstraction)
- How do they work? What do they actually do? techically, explain the most common ways to "read" them.
- What can you do with them? What are the applications? (what are the current uses of this tech? from the most conventional to the bizarre, futuristic)
