6. Practical Applications of PM and FM 1. Radio Transmitting Radio is device that use technology of using radio waves to transfer information, such as sound, by using the properties of electromagnetic energy waves transmitted through space, such as their phase, amplitude, frequency, or pulse width. If radio waves passing an electrical conductor, the oscillating fields induce an alternating current in the conductor. The information in the waves can be get back into its original form. Radio
“All of our dreams can come true- if we have the courage to pursue them.”-Walt Disney (biography.com). Walt Elias Disney: a man who has changed the imagination of children everywhere.

be seen on the DVD, the pits and bumps are larger and so the laser is less accurate than that of the BD. Blu-Ray disc can run formats that are encoded in MPEG-4 and MPEG-2. BD is also used for data storage, playing 1080p HD video and audio, 3-D Stereophonic and it has many other uses. The DVD player is not only used for playing the data present in a DVD, but also to write the content onto a DVD. As told earlier, a DVD has pits and bumps like a BD in its tracks which hold information. This information
(1937). The cartoon, as realized by Disney, gained even greater stature in 1937 when Walt released his first full-length animated feature, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. He went on to introduce many more innovations to movie making, including stereophonic sound (Fantasia, 1940) and 360-degree projection (Disneyland’s circle-Vision 360, 1955).

Musicians before him had experimented with distortion and amplifier feedback, but Hendrix turned those effects into a “fluid vocabulary,” as Holly George-Warren of Rolling Stone commented. Because of his groundbreaking
Music has always been an integral part of human culture, from the first humans who used human voice as an instrument to the development of technology that allowed various different sounds to be produced and used. Music has become an inevitable part of our present culture, whether it is an everyday enjoyment of a specific genre, a way to express onself artistically or participating in music events such as music festivals.

In addition to this visual simulation, this system also uses sound to create the feeling of three-dimensionality. Headphones let in stereophonic sound or 3D sounds. These sounds are not only of things near you but also of everything surrounding you in various locations and at various distances.
