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.
