            In the article from BBC News it describes a new technology which is the Block Box Virtual Reality. This new virtual technology is aimed to provide a full body work out in just a 30 minute session. With this new piece of technology people will be able to work out at home using the VR instead of having to pay to go to the gym every month. The VR uses a training machine and a headset and is about the size of a family bathroom, this shows it is able to fit inside a person's home which will enable them to workout as the which using the VR technology. Using VR will also interest gamers to use the technology and have them workout instead of them being lazy to just gain weight, they will be able to have fun whilst doing a full body work out. A major negative of the VR technology is that the cost is very high and which means only few people will be able to purchase it. Overall, the technology seems to be very useful and will have massive potential towards its consumers as it will allow costumers to find a fun way to lose weight and make them active instead of people being lazy. The creators of the technology should find a way to lower the costs of the VR technology so that everyone would have the technology available to them as well as they should find a way so that no one would be hurt using the technology. Personally the VR is a great idea towards me I feel the technology would allow me to be more active then I already am. It would also allow me to enjoy myself while being active. The intentions of the technology is overall good as it would allow people to be healthy so the technologies purpose is a good one that should be followed.

In lesson 10 we were required to create a game called Color Sleuth. In the game basically there are four similar colors and the objective is to choose the color that is different to the rest of them. While we coded the game in App Lab and made finishing touches to it we then were required to put it in on a webpage so it can be seen in our portfolio. Placing on the webpage allowed viewers to play the game so people can see if th...

The image of myself was suppose to go  before the paragraph. Now to add an image to an HTML code, the image tag needs to be included in the code. Also the image source has to be included which can be done if the image is dragged into the software it is lines of codes are. The dimensions of the image can be manipulated by setting the height and width. Actually, only one valu...
