Top 10 Future Technologies That Are Here Right Now
As you explain why, talk about such things as:
What industry will drive it's development and/or be responsible for its success?
Why do you believe will it be successful?
What might hold back the development or acceptance of the technology, and why?
When you respond to classmates, challenge or support their predictions, and offer your opinions and additional information.
3 Posts are required by Friday: Your initial post, a response to another student's post, and another response to a post.
Note: Be sure to post thoughtful responses to blog questions - both the initial question that I post, AND to the posts of your classmates. "Yeah, I agree," or "Good point!" is not a complete response. Remember, you're carrying on a conversation, that you are contributing to!
I believe the self stopping car will evolve over the years. It may cost more money because of the technology. It'll save lives and money so you don't have to pay for repairs on your car.
ReplyDeleteAlthough this is true, lots of people don't trust these these cars.
DeleteThere are many problems that could occur with these self driving cars. Plus they are very expensive and only a select few could afford them.
DeleteThis may actually put more lives in danger is the vehicle malfunctions, and you can't control it.
DeleteI think the idea of more advanced prosthetics, is likely to come about pretty fast the field is advancing fast and that seems like a good thing.
ReplyDeleteYes! I belive in the next 10 years or so they will be at afforadble costs for everyone.
Deletei also agree because there will always be a need for more advanced prosthetics and advanced medical technology.
DeleteI feel like the sunscreen pill will take off the fastest. We already have sunscreen so obviously its gonna be easy to make a pill and it will definitely benefit everybody who burns really easily. I think the medical industry is going to really make this sunscreen pill a thing because they have the technology and sources to make it happen. But what might hold it back is maybe the number of pills that get made, they might not have enough materials and sources to make it happen so it probably won't go worldwide. I definitely believe this will happen because we already have the sources to make regular sunscreen so whats stopping us from making a pill for it.
ReplyDeleteI feel like this could be a good idea, if I understood how taking a pill could protect you against sunburn. It's just a weird concept to me that something you take as a pill could protect your skin.
DeleteI agree, I think making sunscreen into a pill is a good idea and I think it will happen in the future because having a pill could protect your skin more efficiently because it can protect every part of your body.
DeleteI think that the sun screen pill is a really good idea, and would be easier than having to put on sunscreen every two hours. The only problem i think would be not getting enough chemicals from the coral.
DeleteI agree and the sun screen pill is a good idea, but I think other inventions take priority. I think prosthetic limbs and self driving cars will be invented sooner because they are more important.
DeleteI think this would be a cool idea if it actually could work for everyone against the sun not only just from sunburn but from other harsh possibilities.
DeleteI think the limbs would make it far in the technology world especially because many use them already and there's a lot of people who need a new limb from accidents. The only problem could that maybe people can't afford them or they don't work right for them.
ReplyDeleteI agree! Things being affordable to people who need it is a problem.
DeleteI agree because out of all the futuristic inventions this one is the most essential. People depend on artificial limbs to live and operate in their day to day life.
DeleteProsthetic limbs might take off the fastest, because doctors and scientists already are working on making limbs for people who don’t have certain things. They are currently working on making a working organs, the back up will probably be that is they are heavier than natural organs. Hands and legs might malfunction which could cause more damage.
ReplyDeleteI get what you are trying to say but what about the cost of these limbs these people are making to help injured people. What if someone gets badly injured and loses an arm or a leg or anything and they can't afford to have it replaced whats going to happen to that person. Do they just go without their missing arm or leg for the rest of their life
DeleteI agree with Paige. You have to pay for all the materials so it'll cost a lot of money and they have to make it fit you properly and it has to be comfortable. So you would be paying a lot of money for something that could brake in a few months.
DeleteEven if they aren't the most affordable for some people doctors or whoever is helping them may be able to find a way for these people to find a way to afford the item they need.
DeleteI think that self driving cars will take off the fastest. Companies have already begun manufacturing such cars, like a self driving Tesla. I think they will be successful due to their efficiency and eco friendliness. A drawback would be that their pricey. The technology to manufacture self driving cars is expensive and so is the sales price. This makes it difficult for an ordinary person to purchase this type of car.
ReplyDeleteI see where you are coming from with the self driving cars but what if somehow something goes wrong and the car gets you into an accident. Those types of cars are really dangerous, yeah they are cool and nice to have but they are also life threatening
DeleteI agree with Paige with how they can be very dangerous. Also the cars would not be able to work everywhere . Like in our area it is dangerous driving already in the winter weather we experience. And a self driving car might not be able to function and respond 100%.
DeleteAs cool as self driving cars are few people trust them to fully drive for them.
DeleteI agree with Brayden here, plus the cost would be too much for most of the population.
DeleteSelf driving cars, I think could still be very dangerous and may actually cause more damage.
DeleteI feel like they won't take off as fast because of their price they aren't easy for everyone to buy.
DeleteIn my opinion I think the 360 degree collision avoidance system is going to be successful. Most car companies are already working on self driving cars and collision avoidance cameras. Having cars that have cameras and self stopping cars can help decrease car accidents. These cars can be expensive but they are efficient and good for the economy.
ReplyDeleteI agree, especially when teenagers are just learning to drive and with cell phones they may look away when something is coming at them and the car could save their lives.
DeleteI believe self-driving cars will take off in the future, I think it'll be successful because It will bring down accident rates, and make the roads safer for everyone. Even though this is a great idea, I imagine it would take years for it to be a reality, due to the technology needed to make these cars as efficient as possible.
ReplyDeleteI believe so too. I think that having cars that self drive will have a quicker reaction time to stop and when you aren't paying attention the car can be able to slow down suddenly if needed to.
Deletei also think they are really gonna take off. They are already trying manufacture them.
DeleteSociety would most likely use self driving cars, looking at some peoples driving, it would almost be best
DeleteI agree because in the future robots might do a lot of our jobs, so driving our cars is not a wild idea anymore
DeleteI feel the prosthetic limbs will take off because they are more widely available and don't cost too much money.
ReplyDeleteI'm with you there, they will advance quickly.
DeleteI agree also. I believe that the prosthetic limbs will help people who have lost their limbs so they can do things again maybe they couldn't before. I think its a great idea.
DeleteIt would certainly advance quickly, it's something that won't ever go away
DeleteI think this is also a good idea, it would help a lot.
DeleteI disagree with this because something as simple as a hand could cost $5,000.
DeleteProsthetic limbs have been around for awhile now and they are always changing. People are constantly trying to make newer and more efficient styles for peoples everyday lives. Some may be harder to get or more expensive but there are many different organizations that help people with costs. Or many people are asked to test newly designed Prosthetics for companies.
ReplyDeleteI agree 100% They will continue to make others lives better all the time.
DeleteProsthetic Limbs would be a huge if one was able to control it, such as soldiers who lost limbs in battle and people who had to be amputated, it would definitely be around a long time
ReplyDeleteI agree Cal, Since people are almost always at war it will be in constant demand.
Deletei also agree prosthetic limbs are always going to be in demand be casue of serious injuries.
DeleteSelf driven car's will be a great investment in the next 10-20 years. You may be able to sleep while your trying to get to your destantion. Or maybe you could be on your phone without any safty concerns. Plus robots and computers are much smarter than us or it could be much safer.
ReplyDeletei agree because robots and computers could be safer.
DeleteI agree that it will take off pretty fast and it would help people be more safe while they are in the car on their phone
DeleteI agree the cars are more of a thing in the present.
DeleteI agree but also disagree because there will always be a need of people watching what there self driving cars are doing in case they malfunction.
DeleteI think the prosthetic limbs will take off the fastest. They have already been making them for a while now and they are in consent demand for people that have came back from war to people that have been born with out limbs.
ReplyDeleteI think the prosthetic limbs will take off the fastest. They have already been making them for a while now and they are in consent demand for people that have came back from war to people that have been born with out limbs.
ReplyDeleteSelf driving cars are the next big thing because there could be a lot less crashes and be a lot safer than humans driving.
ReplyDeleteWhat if a sensor broke and it couldn't detect where a car is or the car couldn't stop and you are sleeping?
ReplyDeletei agree because there no human control.
DeleteI believe that self driving cars can be a good thing it will reduce car deaths. reduce any reckless driving. and could keeps things a
ReplyDeletelot safer
I believe crash proof cars will take off the fastest since 1.3 million people die from road crashes every year. Not only is this technology saving money from having to repair your car if you crash, it could also save your life. The only thing that might hold this back is the cost of the cars.
ReplyDeleteI believe that self driving cars are the future because they would reduce crashes, make the roads safer, and reduce the risk of falling asleep at the wheel and crashing. Although these cars are a good thing there are many downfalls. These cars could malfunction and cause crashes, not work well in harsh weather, and many people who drive for a living would loose there job.
