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.
What if Amazon moved its shipping centers downtown? Where drones fly
into the buildings to pick up deliveries.
This drone beehive is one of the ideas and patents that could be part
of Amazon's city of the future.
From Amazon Go, the shop with no lines, and instant shipping and
delivery, to hotels being serviced by Alexa, Amazon Echo, and Amazon Air. This
mini documentary takes a look at how Amazon and Jeff Bezos are designing, and
investing, into technology and new services that will bring a futuristic city
to life.

Most of us town-and-city dwellers spend our days pounding hard, paved
ground. But in Giethoorn, Holland, residents float through canals. Built
without roads, a series of waterways and bridges connect the town’s 2,400
residents. This incredible aquatic infrastructure has even earned the town the
nickname “Little Venice.” We have to admit, a life without asphalt, gridlock
and the DMV sounds pretty enchanting.

The nubian ibex, a desert-dwelling goat, can scale near vertical
cliffs.

The nubian ibex (Capra nubiana) is a desert-dwelling goat that gives
birth to young atop tall windswept mesas. The mesa's steep cliff faces offer
protection from predators. When the offspring are a few days old they must
scale these cliff faces to reach food in the valleys below.
