From things in the air, to new things for our bodies, join me as we
explore 2050: What Would Be The Future Technology?
We are in the year 2020, and if we're being honest with ourselves,
technology is incredible advanced, and we're making strides that can push
things even farther. We have cars that are much safer than they've been in the
past decade, and we're even making fully electric cars that can help save the
planet. There are even plans for self-driving cars and even self-driving Ubers
that make the future of transportation very exciting. And that's just ONE
technology that we're growing at a fast rate. What about all the others that
are out there? What will technology be like as we get closer and closer to
2050?
Let's start with one that well and truly could happen very soon, drones.
"
Let's keep going with transportation, shall we? Right now, one of the
biggest ways to get around the countries we live in are trains. Trains ferry
people and all sorts of cargo around in an efficient and reliable manner, which
is why they've been in use for hundreds of years. But...if we're being honest
here, while trains are efficient and reliable in certain ways...they aren't
exactly fast. Especially when it comes to passenger and freight trains. They
can take a LONG time to get to their destinations and at times it's more
logical to take other modes of transportation.
Which is why companies are making special kinds of trains that can go
MUCH faster. You know of the magnetic trains of Japan no doubt, but others like
the V. Hyperloop are trying to push things even farther.
"Passengers or cargo are loaded into the hyperloop vehicle and
accelerate gradually via electric propulsion through a low-pressure tube. The
vehicle floats above the track using magnetic levitation and glides at airline
speeds for long distances due to ultra-low aerodynamic drag."
Science-fiction? Hardly, in fact, the first vehicle of the Hyperloop has
already been tested and proven, and some larger tests are being scheduled for
the next few years. And if this works, traveling across the country will be
MUCH faster. How much faster? The hyperloop aims to send people shooting across
the tubes that they make at a rate of about 600 miles per hour.
Ok, we've had some fun ones, but now let's go deeper down the rabbit
hole and talk about the ones we all fear...A.I. Yep, artificial intelligence,
and no matter what way you look at it, people are seriously trying to make it
happen, and make it happen soon. AI's are literally everywhere, including in
your cars, and in your homes via devices like Alexa (which are indeed forms of
AI), and there are things like Watson that is so smart that it could beat two
Jeopardy Legends.
Mars seems to be the place where many feel we can go in order to live
amongst the stars. And many speculate that by 2030 at the latest (barring
setbacks, accidents, and other things obviously) we could not only be
colonizing Mars, but having regular shuttles go there so that people can see
the red planet for themselves.
"We will see first people going off to mars, and then robots will
do some basic stuff like making basic materials [on Mars,]" Pearson said.
"We're going to have to do that because only so much can be brought to
space."
Of course, there are numerous things that need to be worked out before
such a thing could happen, but we have "Top Men" on this, including
Elon Musk and the Space X program, Jeff Bezos via his Blue Origin company and
more.
Alright, now let's dive into something REALLY sci-fi...prosthetics.
Yeah, I know that RIGHT NOW prosthetics are very limited, and at times...a bit
pointless. But IF we were able to fully utilize computer technology to its
fullest and make prosthetics that are fully compatible with the human brain and
body, then the sky is the limit. We could enter an age where cyborgs are not
just welcome, they're commonplace.
Think about it like this, what if the clothes you were wearing right now
felt the same, looked the same, but could do more? With the growth of
nanotechnology, your clothes could potentially be imbued with various materials
or technologies that help you improve your strength, durability, and more.
virtual reality simulations come
through as many expect them to, it could lead to all sorts of innovations in
the classrooms that could help kids what's going on.
