what is future technology?

In a broad sense, future technology refers to science and technology that leads to future development. Including high technology, the latest technology, cutting-edge science and technology, and foreseeable future science and technology, etc.

A narrow definition of future technology: refers to science and technology that transcend reality. Future technology is completely different from the concepts of high technology, the latest technology, and cutting-edge science and technology, and there are fundamental differences. The latter represents advanced science and technology that has just been invented, created, mastered, and used by humans, and represents the results of human scientific research. The future science and technology emphasizes the science and technology that can be expected or not foreseen by human beings and have not yet been invented or used by human beings, and will only be mastered and used by humans in a certain period in the future. With the rapid development of science and technology today, anything that we think is impossible may become a reality, just like 100 years ago, people at that time could not imagine the prosperous Internet today 

The following is a list of the top twenty predictions of today’s scientists about life before 2100. If these predictions become reality, the world will undergo earth-shaking changes.

1; Digital health-conscious twins

A scanner has already been created in the United States that will examine hundreds of people per hour. In the future, the developers hope to produce a special digital human avatar - a kind of digital twin, which will be updated with each new scan. it will allow doctors to determine which patient should be tested first

2: Now more and more companies are exploring ways to artificially create animal products. This is partly because the production of milk and dairy products cannot be called environmentally friendly. Plus, it's easier to produce them in the laboratory than meat

3: Artificial eyes

Already in January of this year in Israel, a 78-year-old patient was first implanted with an artificial cornea. In 2020, scientists created an artificial iris that adapts to smart contact lenses to help correct visual impairments. In addition, researchers are developing special wireless brain implants

4: Green funeral

People will be buried in the most environmentally friendly way. In the state of Washington in the United States, for example, there is already a similar method - compost. For this, the bodies are placed in chambers with bark, soil, straw, and other compounds that help the body to decompose faster. There is also an alternative - burial in a special suit made from mushrooms and other microorganisms. The third option mentioned in the material is alkaline hydrolysis. This method involves splitting the body into chemical components for 6 hours in a sealed chamber

5: Airports for drones and flying taxis

The first airport of its kind is currently under construction - in the UK.

6 Smart stitches that detect infections

17-year-old schoolgirl Dacia Taylor has developed stitches that change to dark purple if an infection gets into the wound. Some stitches analyze the condition of the wound and send information to the smartphone.

7 Energy saving bricks

Research is currently underway that will allow bricks to store energy like a battery.

8 Sweat-powered smartwatch

Scientists at the University of Glasgow have created such a device. It will be able to replace batteries that contain a lot of toxic substances.

9 Self-healing "living concrete

A team of researchers at the University of Colorado at Boulder developed this material using sand, gel, and bacteria. According to them, the invention is more environmentally friendly than conventional concrete.

10 Living robots

In other words, they are living programmable organisms. The developer of such bots, Joshua Bongard, says that in the future they may help in the collection of microplastics or in the study of the human body

11 Tactile virtual reality

Northwestern University has created a prototype device that will make touch in virtual reality tangible. For this, a special flexible material will be used, containing small vibrating parts that will attach to the skin.

12 Universal Internet Access

It turns out that now, the author writes, only about half of the entire population of the planet has access to the Internet. Large companies (like Google) are trying to solve this problem.

13 Heart rate monitoring T-shirt

The KYMIRA company has created such a development. The system detects the heart rate and uploads the results via Bluetooth to the cloud. In the cloud, algorithms analyze data and determine the presence of arrhythmias.

14 Creation of new products from coffee grounds

This is already being done by bio-bean. Its employees collect coffee residues and process them in a special way for the production of aromas, bioplastics, logs for biofuel

15 Putting out fires with sounds

It is assumed that in the future, drones will fight forest fires. They will direct loud sounds to the trees, which will block the fire's access to oxygen.

16 AI researcher

Scientists from Tufts University (Massachusetts) have created artificial intelligence, which independently in 42 hours was able to figure out how the sea worm regenerates. That is, the machine was able to formulate a new abstract theory

17 In 10 minutes the batteries of 17 cars are charged

We are talking about electric vehicles. Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania have come up with a new design that takes just 10 minutes to fully charge the car. The results of the study were published in July

18 Unmanned trucks

They will be able to cover longer distances in less time, run smoother, and use less fuel. Mercedes and Peloton are already thinking about implementing such developments

19 Artificial neurons in silicon chips

Researchers have discovered how human-like neurons can be mad. Such chips in the future, as the authors of the development hope, will stand in implants that will help in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease and heart failure

20 Floating farms 

The project of such a structure was presented by the architect Javier Ponce. The farm will have three tiers, the first of which will house solar panels, the second - vegetable beds, and the last - an enclosed space with fish. According to the specialist's forecasts, such a farm will produce 8.1 tons of vegetables and 1.7 tons of fish annually
