What technologies have we yet to invent?
- Ray guns – while we have lasers they’re nowhere near what we have in Sci-Fi movies. Star Wars anyone?
- Time Machines – while this may technically be impossible. I still want it on the list.
- Teleporters – this kind of goes with the last one.
- Video Calls everywhere – In Back to the Future 2 Marty got fired from his job via a video call. Based on the timeline of events that should happen sometime next year…..
- Holograms – see Star Trek
- Androids – (no not this android) once again… see Star Trek
However….. here’s a few we almost have.
- Some version of a medical tricorder. Scanadu
- Dick Tracy’s smart watch. Pebble Smartwatch
- The minority report user interface. Leap Motion
