"8 Current Technologies That Will Shape Our Future"
From: http://mashable.com/2011/09/18/future-technology/

This page describes 8 ideas in how the popular technology we have at present will expand and improve to fit more and more into every day life. These concepts are very much possible as the technology already exists, however, here they are explored in much more intense ways to utilise their potential.

1. SMART-PHONES
Will take place of a watch and sit on the users wrist as a fashion statement

2. WIRELESS BROADBAND

A stable wireless access at all times. Even in remote places. Will be ultra fast, and signal strength indicators will no longer be required. 

3. CLOUD COMPUTING
This system will become mainstream, allowing everything to be accessible at anytime from anywhere. 

4. EYE TRACKING/VOICE COMMANDS
"Near invisible and natural interface." Wearing information glasses to view visuals. Asking questions and being shown an answer. 

5. AUGMENTED REALITY
Floating text, 3d visuals and symbols will be part of a camera's video feed. Experience products virtually. 

6. SOCIAL NETWORKING
Personal accounts will be managed in an extremely personal way. Filters will allow only relevant updates to be seen. Will become part of everyday components that arrant technology based, such as calendars, address books and gps systems.

7. CAD, 3D PRINTING AND CUSTOM PRODUCTS
Cad will become a simple program that consumers can use to create their own products that can be manufactured in reality. Products will become incredibly personalised and unique. There will be significant growth in companies providing customisable products.

8. AUTONOMOUS CARS
Vehicles that do not need a driver to be controlled. Sensors all around the car will make it safer than a person driving. Simply get in the car and tell it where to go, and your off.
