  1. In the Future Your Mind Will be the Most Powerful Computer You Own<\/strong><\/p>\n

    The future of computing doesn’t exist in your phone, as a watch, or even as a pair of glasses.<\/p>\n

    Computing will transcend the devices we have today and are getting in the next year.<\/p>\n

    Computing will be immersed in your everyday life. Not as something you flip out of your pocket. Your entire world will become interactive. The way you see and what you see with will merely be the conduit for what is actually going on.<\/p>\n

    Your display might be glasses, or a contact lens. Bionic eyes might be better than having real ones. Either way everything you come in contact with will have embedded microchips and wireless communication built in.<\/p>\n

    It will allow for a completely augmented reality (AR). The information of the world will be available to you everywhere you look and think. Computing power will be embedded in your biology to enable you to fully interact with your physical world and your digital world through your 5 senses, and a 6th, your mind.<\/p>\n

    At first you may think that sounds a bit creepy. But think of the applications…<\/p>\n

    You will simply need to think about a question you want an answer to, to find the information.<\/p>\n

    People with a disability could use this technology <\/strong>to control bionics and robotic aides. The world of AR will slowly and comfortably enhance<\/em> your world and provide you with a seamless interaction between physical and digital worlds. <\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    1. Safe and Waste-Free Nuclear Power?<\/strong>\n

      Nuclear Fission is the process by which the power is made in nuclear power plants today.<\/p>\n

      But the future of power lies in Thermonuclear<\/em> Fusion.<\/em><\/p>\n

      The detailed physics of how it all works is far too complicated to explain briefly. But the key things you need to know are it’s safer than Nuclear Fission, as it doesn’t produce radioactive waste.<\/p>\n

      This means in the event of an accident there wouldn’t be a repeat of Chernobyl or Fukushima.<\/p>\n

      Not only that, but thermonuclear fusion can generate about four times as much energy as current fission. Advances in the science mean that it could be the best source of energy the world has within the next 10 years. <\/p>\n

      Right now in southern France the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) in being constructed. This has the potential to be the first Fusion reactor to break the plasma energy breakeven point, and produce more energy output than energy input.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      1. Liver Failure? Don’t Panic, Here’s Another Made to Order…<\/strong>\n

        Stem Cells, your own little cellular ‘Mr Fix-its’.<\/p>\n

        The advances in medical technology are astounding. But none are as potentially revolutionary<\/strong> as the benefit stem cells can provide us.<\/p>\n

        Poised to revolutionise the way the world practices medicine, Stem Cells have the ability to find their way to broken parts of the body – a bone, the liver, the heart – and to repair an otherwise unrepairable organ.<\/p>\n

        It means living longer, staying healthier, and perhaps evading death.<\/p>\n

        The current work on stem cells revolves around the potential for growing of fully functional human organs. It could be a future where as you age and parts of you wear away, you can simply replace them. The most important mechanic you might have will be the one that gives your body new parts…not your automated car.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          \n
        1. Safer Roads Without Passing a Driving Test<\/strong>\n

          Ever considered how misleading the word Automobile is? It obviously refers to a car, but I can tell you one thing, there’s nothing auto about it…yet.<\/p>\n

          You may as well stop using the term car now. In fact if you have young children, put away all the story books about people driving cars. When your newborn is of ‘driving’ age, he\/she will ask you this simple question. ‘Why did you ever drive cars in the olden days? That’s soooo 2013.’<\/p>\n

          Cars themselves are the pinnacle of safety and technology, but last year in Australia 1,309 people died from road accidents. The road toll creeps down every year. But soon there could be a dramatic shift towards a zero fatality year.<\/p>\n

          And it will be because of a fully automated car<\/a>. Jump in, input destination, and let the car take you there. This technology is already available, but laws and regulations are holding it back. If we take human error out of the equation, traffic flows better, cars travel at safer speeds, and getting everyone where they want to be more efficiently.<\/p>\n

          It’s a future world not of flying cars. But fully automated, self-driving, autopilot cars.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
