Technology in the future & future technologies
When thinking toward the future, most people consider the technologies of today and how those technologies may
be improved upon or more highly developed in the years to come.
Imagine if your cellular phone behaved much like a remote
control for your entire life.
Imagine a world where technological advances make disease and illness a thing of the past. Imagine having
the ability to store your life’s history into a device that you can use to bring your memory back to life when you
need it.
These are all devices and developments that are currently being looked into by scientists and researchers from
all over the world. Cellular phone technology is expected to be far more advanced over the next ten years or
so.
In fact, it is not completely far-fetched to imagine seeing a cellular telephone that can memorize your travel
schedule and ensure that everything is ready
regarding roads, airplane reservations and even trains
giving you the absolute best route to get to your destination on time.
Imagine a phone that will control the central heating in your home to keep you warm before you even rise from
bed in the morning or one that provides emergency authorities with your home information if your home security
system is triggered.
Many cellular phones today are equipped to handle music files, videos and many other entertainment aspects.
Imagine having a phone that will work with your home entertainment system and find programs that interest you and
then automatically download those programs for you to watch on your way to work.
This futuristic phone will also know instantly how to handle your incoming calls. If someone calls that
you do not want to talk to or while you are in an appointment, it will automatically direct those calls to
voicemail based on your schedule and provide you with a text summary of who called and why.
These cellular phones will be like having a virtual assistant in your pocket. And, technology improves and new
developments are made with each passing year so having a phone like this in the near future is not so
far-fetched.
Other technologies will also see growth and development. Having the ability to cure diseases before they even
strike or the technology to implant vital organs to save lives are things that have been in constant development
for several years.
The technology that surrounds medical research is substantially more advanced than it was even twenty years ago.
Cancer could one day be completely curable not matter the type or how far advanced the disease is found to be.
Or, it could simply be one of those illnesses that individuals receive an immunization for when they are young
so that they never contract the actual disease. Vehicles may actually be able to hover above the ground producing a
much faster and more efficient way in which to travel.
Future technologies remain to be seen but one can assume at the rate that things have changed in the past,
things will be much more advanced in the future.
The technology in the future may well not produce any of these things, but chances are better that they
will.
Given what the world has now compared to what it had 100 years ago, it stands to good reason that future
technology will bring us things that we simply can not live without.
