It Work by connecting to your phone via bluetooth and this can make some problems. Along with thoughs problems is that its cool but that's it there is no use for it that I see and it's price makes me think that it is cool then it really is. I said useful but then I started thinking what I do with it. Hmmm...<br />3. Google smart cars are not that new but they are getting better but the fact that blind people can some what drive cool.

Halo 3 is in my opinion the best first person shooter game of all time and if it is half as good as that then I'm excited. How they'll create what looks like a mix between an MMO and Borderlands baffles me but well see.<br /><br />I don't get what the big deal is about Bitcoin. A new kind of currency that seems to be worth almost a thousand dollars per coin. Seems kind of inefficient but people are using it so that's interesting I wonder how it became such a hit.<br /><br />Curved TV's can either be really cool or really pointless. Its a TV curved and if not big enough I don't see how it can add anything to the experience however it could fix the widescreen full screen dilemma.

This may be helpful for many people who, well, obviously care about their health and fitness. But mainly this will be helpful for older people who really need to know weather their okay or not.<br /><br />Curved TVs - curved TVs really speak for themselves, they are TVs that are curved, simple as that. I think that these will be really cool but very expensive. Samsung and LG are experimenting with these displays to provide a different sort of viewing angle to the traditional flat straight panel.

Like for 2014 4k TVs are most likely to be really popular in the upcoming months and will be a big focus of 2014.<br />2.Smart, and connected cites will be a focus because today more and more people are using the web more and more often and it seems as soon as every one has something connecting them to the internet the more the cites and the world will have to change. Things like self driven cars and WiFi hot spots every were will be in the near future.<br />3.Amazon drones will be something that will become popular because its convenient and a clever idea. the idea of your product getting to you faster because of a drone is a fascinating one. The main reason it will become popular is because its convenient and fast it would attract a lot more customers because if they can get something they ordered quick it would cause them to keep coming back.

I myself have not yet experienced the Oculous Rift, but I do know about other's experiences. It immerses you into the game like nothing else ever could. I watch a youtuber named Markiplier who plays a lot of horror games. He has an oculous rift and there are many horror games that use that. He gets intensely immersed and has even cried for the first time, since he thought it was real a bit. Now imagine the Oculous Rift with an omni-directional treadmill and you can have amazing immersive games that even make you move and may not even require a controller at all.<br /><br />2. Google Glass has been getting more and more attention the past couple of months. Google glass is truly amazing and helpful to everyone. It has many uses to it such as google maps that helps you find anything you want around you. I don't believe it's reached it's full potential or even be near it yet. Glass' technology blew minds everywhere that there can be something like this. Google Glass technology could even be used by people with diabetes and other diseases to see blood pressure, blood sugar, and anything else to help them.<br /><br />3. Nasa has been testing ways to print food. The recent 3D printer technology has a lot of possibilities and this is a huge one. As this is still in phase 1, it's not certain that there will be success, but if success does occur, imagine the possibilities of being able to print out whatever food you want. If this does go into mass production though, a lot of restaurants if not all restaurants will go out of business, cause why would you need one if you can just print it out? But this could also lead to other stuff like compressed pizza that has a lot of hidden protein in it (tasteless or artificially tasted).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9123329717980057951.post-49961105319974243832014-01-24T11:45:32.450-08:002014-01-24T11:45:32.450-08:001.

It's basically a computer that you wear on your head. I'm really looking forward to being able to call friends, take pictures, and video tape everything around you with your hands free.<br />2. Another piece of technology I'm looking forward to is the Oculus Rift. It's a virtual reality device that let's you live the game through the characters eyes. You can even get a a treadmill that works with the Oculus Rift so you can move through the game more.<br />3. Last but not least, the Amazon drone delivery is something I'm really looking forward to. After buying an item online, the drone will fly the item to your house in 30 minutes or less. Six states are already testing this out, and I can't wait until they start using it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9123329717980057951.post-41448033451101763772014-01-24T11:43:05.917-08:002014-01-24T11:43:05.917-08:00I think that contacts will be implanted with full ...I think that contacts will be implanted with full abilities as a phone would have but your able to see it with out looking down. This would take care of phone related crashes and would open up possibilities for easy access and mobility. Bad there are cons like would it block your vision and make crashing a more possibly thing and how would you listen to music.<br /><br />With this innovation you may not need to crash when you use your contacts. The google smart car drives itself and moves to road by sensors and cameras.<br /><br />Another amazing product is the ability to print 3D scans. This allows doctors to print out needed body parts for patients that lost an arm or leg. This could also by bad because this means were leaning more and more on technology.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9123329717980057951.post-8367926760293559102014-01-24T11:40:14.845-08:002014-01-24T11:40:14.845-08:001.The internet of every thing is starting to be bu...1.The internet of every thing is starting to be built in tech shows.

This technology has to do with video games in particular the Xbox one and PS4 consoles these consoles have swept gamers of their feet with stunning graphics and great gameplay, but not with many games themselves. Sure there are a few good games out there, but no where near as many games as there is going to be I found one called Destiny that is expected to be launched sometime in mid 2014 that is letting gamers test their true gaming ability, and experience by adding the Halo and Call of Duty element and enhancing those elements by putting them in space!<br /><br />2.In 2014 there is going to be a huge amount of new laptops,tablets and both of those in one. Microsoft has already released one of these and it is called the Surface Pro 2 and it allows you to use it as either a laptop by adding the detachable keyboard or as a tablet by simply taking of the keyboard. Although many people like the traditional in the box type of laptop or PC that is not stopping Microsoft from making this new technology.<br /><br />3.Technology in 2014 isn't just all about computers. It can also include something as innovative and electric formula cars as shown on this website http://goo.gl/ZZHgci.

It is a device worn on the user's head that lets them see through the eyes of another, and is displayed in 3D.

This allows for even more participation in the controlling of the character.<br /><br />3D printing- San Diego Biotech has been working on 3D printing body parts by layering living cells to replicate the actual parts. They speculate that they could print a human liver be the end of 2014. Even more could be accomplished in coming years. <br /><br />MOOC- The Massive Open Online Course is a program that can teach machines to learn how humans think so they can replicate human actions and emotions. This may lead to machines being able to do jobs for humans and such other jobs like therapy. It may be better for a robot to be a therapist because they will not interject their own opinions.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9123329717980057951.post-38287925239517923222014-01-15T12:37:05.230-08:002014-01-15T12:37:05.230-08:00On the second link, I noticed an image of a transp...On the second link, I noticed an image of a transparent smartphone, and when i looked into it, it was a nearly 4 year old article. This got me thinking that this was one of the types of things that inspired Google Glass. Even though the image was a mockup, it was still a cool idea, even though (to me) it seems like an impossible feat with current technologies. Speaking of Google Glass, the 10 bold predictions articles, Glass was discussed as one of the must have gadgets of 2014. I think it will be, I honestly believe that Glass will be a common thing to have, and that business owners will use Glass to communicate with each other and even regular citizens will use it to communicate with each other while being able to keep their eyes on the road while driving. Speaking of driving, another innovation Google has made is the ability to make a car that drives itself. This is possibly the most important innovation on either of these lists. This will help disabled drivers get themselves around without having to get on buses or taxis, making themselves easier to transport, MUCH LIKE THE AMAZON DRONE'S CARGO. This invention by Amazon will make it easier for Amazon to ship orders, cutting waiting time for packages down to as low as THIRTY MINUTES.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9123329717980057951.post-30136947342082051502014-01-15T12:06:28.583-08:002014-01-15T12:06:28.583-08:00Scaled FPV- In the past year, scaled aircraft equi...Scaled FPV- In the past year, scaled aircraft equipped with FPV technology has been growing in population. The thought of being able to explore, scan, and protect yourself without moving interests people. The rate of use has more than doubled in the past year and is continuing to grow. FPV is first-person-view, and adding in a radio controlled aircraft allows the user to create an ultimate mock setup of Airforce drones. People control these aircraft with a simple display (glasses, TV, etc) and a wireless camera.<br />(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First-person_view_(radio_control))<br /><br />Samsung has announced their first 105'' flexible TV. With technical specifications such as this one, our future tech age can evolve out of boxes and into a 4th dimension. Applying tech displays into infinite shape. This innovation will unlock endless tech possibilities for the future.<br />(http://www.engadget.com/2014/01/08/samsung-uhd-release-window/)<br /><br />Ultra HD TV- Unlike the bendable tv above, this Ultra HD TV links the virtual display with realty. Watching something on this TV is true ecstasy. The picture is so crystal clear, even Brittany Spears is jealous.<br />(http://thesource.com/2014/01/13/vizio-announces-120-inch-ultra-hd-tv-at-ces-2014/)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9123329717980057951.post-82763540867091507922014-01-15T12:05:13.385-08:002014-01-15T12:05:13.385-08:001.

This is a virtual keyboard that is projected onto your work space that will be used for helping businesses get client info and reviews from them faster. This is probably a good idea for business since they won't need an employee there to help them while doing the the review or when they are giving their information as the client. Though this kind of new technology might be odd to some people and they might not know how to use it which shows potential for many problems. http://mindcater.com/new-hi-technical-computer-technology-2014/<br />2. In addition a next gen game that is going to be coming out this year interested me called Titanfall. This game is going to change fps games for a long time, and it probably will also kill some of the fps games that are out there. This game offers a whole new kind of game play with its new system to help it become more smooth and responsive with many ways to go about playing this game. Now implementing advanced combat techniques that allow you to fight in your own way. You can play as a fast pilot or in the pilot seat of your titan. Also these features will be implemented into the new online multiplayer. http://www.titanfall.com/<br />3. The last thing I saw that sort of interested me was GT's new Fury DH Bike. This is a bike that has been remade so it has better handling especially downhill, since it is a downhill bike. It is stronger and better than the other bikes that are around and is definitely more durable. http://www.singletracks.com/blog/mtb-news/news-gt-releases-new-fury-dh-bike/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9123329717980057951.post-22408792535059212332014-01-15T12:04:00.123-08:002014-01-15T12:04:00.123-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9123329717980057951.post-15937386426739337662014-01-15T11:48:10.063-08:002014-01-15T11:48:10.063-08:001.The amazon drones are amazing and changing the w...1.The amazon drones are amazing and changing the world.

I never even imagined that something like that would ever exist and I hope on having some Tangible experiences with one of them in the future.<br /><br />Oculus Rift - This is a very fun device, so many Youtube videos of the Oculus Rift. I saw a video recently of people wearing the Rift, holding a plastic gun with sensors on it, while in a ball cage. The cage was big enough to walk in and the as you walked the cage could tell which way you were walking. The gun showed which way you were aiming, and the rift obviously was your vision.

These things just fascinate me, I mean, they are miniature drones that deliver packages directly to your home faster than any delivery service ever could. If their services also come at a reasonable price, then we might be seeing the end of delivery men and women. Which goes into and entirely different section about unemployment... but hey, the future awaits.<br /><br />As much as the Google Glass impresses me, I do not think I will ever be a purchaser of one. Although, the concept is truly amazing! These are basically computers and you can wear like an eyeglass! I bet no one ever thought technological feats such as these would be possible, but low and behold; the Google Glass.<br /><br />Lastly, I believe that 2014 is going to me a fantastic year for virtual reality. We have barely scratched the surface of what virtual reality can do. Just think, we already have devices that can insert our eyes and motions into a game.
