- Technology development
Technology development is the process of
research and development oftechnology . Manyemerging technologies are expected to become generally applied in the near future.There is an accelerating progress in technology, perhaps approaching a
technological singularity .Examples of technology development include:
*Software engineering
*Biotechnology
*Nanotechnology Nanotechnology
Carbon nanotubes can, as of April 2008, be synthesized to a extend of a few millimeters, which already makes them suitable aselectric brushes . It's approaching its many other potential applications.Artificial intelligence
Artificial intelligence (AI) is a field in development. Currently, AI is superhuman in most board-games, but still Sub-human in Go [Computer Go#Computers versus humans ] and most everyday tasks performed by humans.Energy
"Energy development" is the ongoing effort to provide sustainable
energy resources through knowledge, skills, and constructions. Whenenergy fromprimary energy sources and converting them into more convenient secondaryenergy forms , such aselectrical energy and cleanerfuel , both emissions (reducing pollution) and quality (more efficient use) are important.Emerging technologies
Examples of
emerging technologies areGenetic engineering /Synthetic biology ,Electric cars with range extenders andPersonal rapid transit ,Flash memory with smaller, faster, lower power consuming storage,Nanomaterials ,CVD diamond ,Scramjet ,Wireless communication with ubiquitous network connectivity,Anti-aging drugs,Semantic Web orAnswers Machine , more efficient bio fuels, OLEDs,Machine translation bob,Nuclear fusion power ,3D optical data storage orHolographic data storage ,Metamaterial s,3D display s, Quantum computing,Nanowire batteries ,Virtual retinal display s,WiTricity and WREL (Wireless energy transfer ).Notes
