#6 Driverless Car
A few decades ago, owning a car was a very elite thing. Than, owning a luxury car became supreme. Little that we knew back then was that we'll there will come a time when we can own a car that doesn't really requires a driver.
Google has taken self-driving cars to the roads, cars that replace the steering wheel and pedals with enough sensors and software to find their way to the destination of your choice. Amazing!
#5 Bionic Lenses
Looking good is a very important part of almost everyone's life now. And using lenses is just a step towards it. Technology is just making it easy for you now. What if all you need to correct your terrible eyesight is an 8 minute surgery that will also improve your vision 3 times better than 20/20?
Yep, Ocumetics Technology Corp. is developing a bionic lens that will destroy the need for glasses and contacts and also go far beyond what the human eye is capable of seeing. This painless procedure has the potential to completely restore vision forever.
#4 3D Printing
3D Printing has made quite a name for itself in last a few years. But sometime back, it was almost impossible to even think about something like this. People have already started printing spare parts, apparel, figurines and entire car chassis bodies! This technology has lots of potential that can be used for good and bad.
Imagine creating a plastic gun that bears no trace of its origins. Now that can be a serious security issue in the future that might force government bodies to step in. On the plus side, researchers have been developing ways to create 3D printed artificial organs and human parts. From sturdy bone replacements to working kidneys, this technology could save countless lives.
#3 VR (Virtual Reality)
This is fairly a new concept. Virtual Reality has re-emerged in 2015 with various tech companies putting in billions of dollars in headsets that could revolutionize movie viewing and gaming. Headsets like the Oculus Rift and Zeiss VR immerse you in whole new worlds that guarantee to blow your mind. Even Google has developed a cheap cardboard version of the experience for as little as Rs 300 that work with any android smartphone. We were blown away by apps like the Paul McCartney VR experience that gave us the illusion that we were sitting front row in one of his concerts.
#2 The Hoverboard
Quality hover-boards were so unreal once upon a time. But now they are real for sure. Yes, actual floating boards that need no roads where they're going. Toyota has recently come up with a working model of a hoverboard that uses liquid nitrogen-cooled superconductors and magnets. We can't wait to try this baby out.
#1 Razor Reinvented
Wee yes, this is just a razor. But a different and better razor. But Gillette has decided to take on the task to make it better. And you can't complain.
