Society has been very quick to adopt and master computer, as well as latest mobile technologies as an integral part of its everyday life. Innovative technologies have penetrated into nearly every aspect of human life and are now so much involved and embedded in social life that most people do not even realize that these technologies are relatively new inventions. Furthermore, nowadays people do not imagine their daily life without technology.
In fact, information technologies create great comforts for humans in their everyday life. Despite that, one cannot say for sure that technology has only positive impact on physical, mental or psychological state of humans.
Now we are living in the era of digital technologies, where scientists put forward a hypothesis according to which such deep penetration of technologies into human life might have dangerous consequences. If we look around for a moment we will notice that it is almost impossible to imagine social life and life as a whole without state-of-the-art technologies and application thereof.
The given research has as its objective to study and display health related aspects, the influence (whether positive or negative) of innovative technologies on human health and to compare the results with those of the past when human life was not exposed to technological influence, as well as reveal the impact of technology, in general, on human health.There are diferent type of technologies and we cannot cover all impacts of all technologies in all activities. I.e., as a result of comparison between the differences of the current and recently used education methods it becomes obvious that technological development has brought to the constant increase of the time spent in a sitting position which causes some heath issues in the future. Due to the modern technologies it becomes possible to get an on-line education this way minimizing the human movement. | Keywords
