New Avenues for Electronics oving reality and ing how to make that better

The future is unfolding all around us . Over the next decade we will see a slew of new technologies that we can hardly imagine today . We can to some extent predict the future technologies based upon current emerging tech and inventions plus trends but at the same time we remain clueless about the technology of future as the advancement in technology is the day to day event . Emerging tech is exciting in and of itself . Future technology will allow the generation of today to live longer due to advances in medicine , use more high tech computers and electronics than we can now imagine , and drive future cars with no emissions and zero carbon footprints . Future energy , smart homes and cars , robots and bionics will make the life easier . Future weapons will actually be smarter , more precise and reduce the need for machismo among countries and will encourage non-proliferation . Future space technology will bring spacecraft to the far reaches of this solar system and beyond . Education technology will mean students will learn faster , retain information longer , process information and retain memory like we can now not even imagine . Electronics will go way beyond the iPad using holograms and other virtual reality technology . Future robotic surgery will mean more precision , less complication and faster healing . Bionics will not only combine man ( and woman ) and machine , but also artificial intelligence with human intellect . Questions such as what is the mind , consciousness and the soul will be answered and integrated between neurons and electronics . Homes will not only be smart in a green and energy conservation sense but they ’ ll also be empowered with robotics , food supply management , facial recognition security , resource and energy management plus so much more .
