In the recent past, a lot of techies have been on the lookout for new and better technologies. A few, in turn, have given them the skill to foresee upcoming technological advancements. In fact, one technology expert named Eric Schmidt believes that there are inevitable trends that will be happening in the near future. Are you dying to know what these new technological innovations are? Then here is a list made by Schmidt himself that depicts the future of technology.
Less Consumption of Meat
Schmidt believes that people in the future will be less dependent on meat to supply them the needed nutrition. Instead, he supports the belief that citizens will be inclined to consume more plant-based nutrition. Thus, it will also lessen the impact of greenhouse gases.
Undoubtedly, this will also be a healthier option for people considering the substitution of meat with plant-based diet.
Technological Advancements in Education
According to educational advocates, technology can be more beneficial to learning. In fact, Microsoft Corp began the layering of educational process when they introduced Minecraft to the classrooms. Accordingly, teachers will be able to use this game as an educational medium to teach mathematics and geography, among others. Additionally, students will have the option to work inside or outside of the class as this trend serves as a teacher-student collaboration to find ways to effective learning.
3D Printer to Reduce Cost and Saves Time
The proliferation of 3D printers will be able to create a structure with the help of recyclable materials. Consequently, large sizes of 3D prints will be printed for commercial and residential buildings. The good thing is that it can save considerable amounts of energy and time.
Evidently, this can also reduce waste production as it can be recycled for better use.
Self-Driving Cars
The availability of self-driving vehicles are beginning to become a reality as manufacturers look forward to create an affordable prototype. This is intended to provide a safer driving experience with its self-driving mode.
Perhaps Schmidt has been keen on the tie up between Google and carmaker Fiat Chrysler, which enabled his forecast of the development of self-driving vehicles in the future.
Apple’s Health Kits for Mobile Devices
In a report by Tech Crunch, the launching of Carekit and ResearchKit from Apple Inc will enable users to monitor certain symptoms and to keep tabs under the medication process. For this reason, it will provide a big impact for the empowerment of the medical sector.
Obviously, this will provide the elderly and people with disabilities to monitor their intake of medication properly.
Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality
The revolution of virtual reality has taken a notch higher. At the same time, augmented reality may have a big role in the vehicle industries and education. Schmidt asserts that the future for virtual reality is already certain, but for augmented reality, it will still be determined.
The current trends can be clearly associated with these forecasts since the advancement of technology is undeniably fast. In fact, inventions that people considered impossible to build decades ago have now been proven possible.
