Computer technologies of the future - Along with the times, and advances in science and technology is so fast, is not impossible for man to enjoy a variety of increasingly sophisticated services and fast as well as computers. Recently, NEC Design Ltd. is an institution in Japan to offer a new concept of computer technology which is very surprising. The concept is Computer Model Pena.
This is the model of a computer model of the pen. If seen at a glance secaara is highly unlikely pen called a computer. If it had been aware of the functions and benefits we would definitely be surprised. This computer is called a P-ISM.
As explained by the designer NEC as "Pen-style Personal Networking Gadget Package". The computer models estimated at $ 30,000, or about 300an million. The price for the size of a computer may be very expensive, but if viewed in terms terkologi certainly not nothing. According to the NEC Website Design, computer types P-ISM pen computer is package that includes five functions:
Mobile stylized pen by means of data input using handwriting
virtual keyboard
small projector
Camera Scanned
Personal ID password that serves as the owner's identity
P-ISM connected to each other with the adjacent wireless technology. This model can also connect to the internet using mobile phone functions at the P-ISM .. This personal gadget minimalist style pen that has a feature Exceptional Complete. Initially we thought that the model of laptop technology "keyboard and screen" will last long. but we can not deny that pen and paper is stationery and symbols that naturally we receive, only a matter of time until someone finds the latest sophisticated products masquerading as "Smart Pen" or "smart paper". So perhaps shortly laptops (portable computers) will not sell anymore.
In addition to NEC Design Ltd., the world's leading computer company Microsoft Corporation also do not want to miss. The new -new Microsoft is developing a prototype of future computers and is being perfected. This computer is named Microsoft Surface. In this technology, is like we have a digital camera and a cellular phone / mobile phone that already has the support wareless, then after we photographed the object / person with a camera before, and then we put the camera on a touchpad or touchscreen monitor that resembles a table. Once placed, then you will see pictures of objects or faces which we have earlier portraits in our screen without moving it. Then, with this technology, the picture can be enlarged, reduced, inverted by hand. And more exciting again. Put a phone was on the table. Slide the monitored image toward the phone. And immediately a picture also has moved to the memory card we hold our cell phones without the cell phone.
Two developments in computer technology over the political reality may be a considerable period of time. We certainly have to wait menggunya. But in the near future we will also be treated to the development of computer technology which is no less sophisticated. In the year 2010 will soon be released Laptop new type. Viewed in terms of shape and kecanggihanya, a laptop that will be released this year is really quite fantastic.
TriBook with three ultra-wide-screen concept that is 21in wide-screen. It also has an 8x SuperDrive, a 1TB hard drive, and MacBook Pro-caliber CPU, plus a trackpad multitouch keyboard. Future generations of laptops made by German industrial designer Felix Schmidberger, models classy, elegant, futuristic laptop that uses OLED touchscreen.
Perhaps more appropriately called Paper PC because of its shape like a sheet of paper in the form of a screen interface and equipped to operate in a manner pen touch screen. Designed by Avery Holleman. A laptop that has two screens with a similar design book, prototype of the XO-2 and One Laptop Per Child (OLPC).
Future Technology Some examples include:
1. Intelligent machines Atomic Size, Nanotechnology
"Coal and diamonds, sand and computer chips, cancer and healthy tissue: throughout history, variations in the arrangement of atoms have distinguished the cheap from the cherished, the diseased from the healthy. Arranged one way, atoms make up soil, water, and water. Arranged another, they make up ripe strawberries. Arranged one way, they make up homes and fresh air; arranged another, they make up ash and smoke ". Eric Drexler, Engines of CreationNanoteknologi are all future technologies that allow humans to manipulate tiny particles that magnitude almost super-sized atom! Nanometer itself is the size of 1 / semilyar meters, or nearly 50,000 cut hair thickness. That awesomeness nanotechnologies.
The goal is to create new materials of the future, even the machines and robots the size of the particles. Materials that will be stronger than diamond, super lightweight, heat resistant and cold with extreme scale, able to conduct electricity better, more durable, environmentally friendly and so on.
Application possibilities really devastating and it will change the whole world. Imagine if we could create a variety of new material harder than diamond, and much lighter than steel. (Carbon nanotubes, sp2 bond). We can create super strong framework for cars, airplanes or buildings and bridges. With a lighter weight, all the cars and planes will also be more energy efficient.
We can create clothes anti-wrinkle and stain resistant. We also can create bacteria-sized robots, nanobots, and memasukanya into the human body. Functions can be of cure, destroys cancer cells, and even strengthen the human body (Feynman, "Swallowing the Doctor"). Nanobots or even later expected nanoparticles will also be able to re-close the ozone hole.
With the nano-sized components, we can create a supercomputer for a matchbox, and a data storage medium which stores millions of gigabytes of information about mankind and the universe, at the tip of the nail. How this technology can be done? Because the super-powerful microscopes that can see the atom has existed since 1981, the Scanning Tunneling Microscope (STM) and Atomic Force Microscope (AFM, 1986).
2. Humans Super Era, Genetic Engineering
"Human genetic engineering has the potential to change human beings' appearance, adaptability, intelligence, character, and behavior. It may be used in creating Potentially more dramatic changes in humans" .Wikipedia Genetic Engineering.
Humans have successfully mapped the genes in the giant project "The Human Genome Project". With this data man has map information to explore the function and potential of each gene in the human body. Starting from the genes that determine the physical form of a human, cancer-causing genes, genes that form memories, the genes that create intelligence, even specific genes that regulate the aging process.
This will permit the genetic engineering of human beings to create a future that is very superior. Man with perfect health, free from disease, aged more than 100 years and have intelligence approaching genius.
Imagine if humans find special gene that makes Einstein's genius. Then the gene could be transferred to all mankind. David Beckham or physical superiority, or even the charisma of John F. Kennedy.
But genetic engineering is not just for humans, but also for plants and animals. Genetic engineering can create new types of rice and wheat to harvest many times. We can also create the beef more tender and tasty. We can even create plant and animal consumption with superior nutritional value.
3. Energy terdahsyat throughout the Universe, The Power of the Stars
"What would mean fusion? Endless, cheap energy. Amazing Star Trek, space travel possibilities. Fame, fortune, and Undoubtedly a Nobel or two for the lucky scientist".
The Observer, December 2000
Sun, every second, expend energy of all energy used all mankind throughout history. Hydrogen plasma energy giant $ 380 billion-billion Mega-Watt (380 ^ 26 MW), per second. This is the energy which is known as nuclear fusion energy (Nuclear Fusion), the power of the Sun. And the world's scientists are trying to get it.
And this is the energy that makes massive stars in the universe burn for billions of years. Terdahsyat energy, throughout the universe. A great experiment is being conducted in the small town of Cadarache in the southern tip of France in a project called ITER. Here Deuterium and Tritium atoms fused with heat reaches 150 million degrees Celsius, nearly 10 times the hot core of the sun.
Peleburannya container protected by the tokamak magnetic field so that it does not melt. Remarkably is that deuterium can be produced from ordinary sea water, and Tritium is formed of lithium that can be obtained from natural stone. Terdahsyat energy throughout the universe of water and natural stone.
If these scientists successfully created, then the whole world will have a powerful new energy source replacing petroleum. This energy will be so big and efficient, is not limited, very inexpensive, and environmentally friendly.
(Note: the use of nanotechnology in photovoltaic solar cells, nanocrystal, is also said to have super huge energy potential that is capable of replacing petroleum).
4. Regeneration Wolverine, Stem Cell
Imagine if heart disease and diabetes can be cured completely, the lame can walk, and the blind could see again. You've seen a lizard, which can regrow its tail broken off completely? Or if you're a fan of the comic "X-Men", you must know superhero character named Wolverine.
When his body pierced by a knife or a bullet, he can heal the wound with nearly instantaneous. He can regenerate all cells of the body perfectly, instantly. But it was only a fantasy. There is a kind of worm called "planarian worm", which is a lot of life at sea and the river, which was able to grow back even nearly the entire body.
Planarians, especially Schmidtea mediterranea species, able to regenerate his body intact, even if staying only a small piece of his body, up to 1/300 part. And when the head dihilangkanpun, he will regrow his head perfectly.
What if humans could do that later? If we can directly replace all the cells of our body are damaged perfectly and flawlessly. Scientists have almost reached that magic. Molecular biology technology called Stem Cell, or Stem Cells. This is the most basic cell of the human body, which can be changed, or altered, into any cell or organ in the human body.
If you have heart disease, the heart cells can be replaced with stem cells and your heart will function normally again. If you are blind, you retinal cells can be replaced with new cells from stem cells and you will be able to see again.
If you are suffering from diseases related to brain function such as stroke, Alzheimer's or Parkinson's, then your brain cells are damaged, even the cerebral cortex of the brain center network, can be replaced by stem cells. And if you suffer from diabetes, the stem cells will save you by regenerating insulin-producing pancreatic cells.
5. Quantum Computer
Imagine a future computer, the speed a thousand times faster than today's fastest supercomputer. Thousands of times faster and more efficiently than IBM "Roadrunner" at Los Alamos that the velocity reaches 1.7 petaflops (1 petaflop = 10 ^ 15 operations per second).
This is awesomeness quantum computer. This computer is so powerful because it created a miracle wear phenomena of the quantum world, superposition and Quantum Entanglement. In the example code-breaking (cryptography), to decode the digit to 140, an ordinary computer would take billions of years to solve it.
But with a quantum computer, this can be solved in just a few tens of minutes. The man with the computer will also be able to predict the weather on earth and other natural phenomena are very complex to very accurately months in advance, such as earthquakes and tornadoes. And of course this will further revolutionize again the speed of the entire development of advanced technologies that exist today.
6. Harry Potter Robe Disappearing, Metamaterial
"The announcement last November of an" invisibility shield, "created by David R. Smith of Duke University and colleagues, inevitably set the media buzzing with talk of HG Wells's Invisible Man and Star Trek's Romulans" .MIT Technology Review
Just a few years ago, all the world's leading scientists are still convinced that none of the material in this world that can make people disappear. It really is not possible, because it's against all the laws of nature known to man. But they were all wrong .. Metamaterial, became one of the main ingredients are busy talking. This material could create something, to become invisible. An outfit that use this technology can make the wearer "disappeared", like a magic cloak in the "Harry Potter".
A fighter with a metamaterial material will be invisible, not only does not look like a radar technology "Stealth", but totally invisible to the eye as a tool in the Star Trek cloaking device.
This can be done for example by creating an artificial material that is able to deflect electromagnetic radiation, as well as light, which is basically electromagnetic radiation. The material can be like tin and plastic are arranged in a particular pattern structure.
Metamaterial would bend light around the object that diselimutinya and regroup at the end, like river water around a rock. In a recent study at Perdue University them using special needles that will bend light beyond the shrouded object while the object behind it will be visible.
This material is being studied around the world, including MIT, University of California Berkeley, Duke University, and Caltech in LA.
7. Space Elevator, Stairs Towards Stars
Space elevator or staircase Space is like a very high lifts from Earth to orbit the Earth in space, 35,000 kilometers high. With this elevator trip to orbit the earth will become easier, and cheaper. Many people hope that the space program which had been stopped up on the moon because it is very expensive, will be started again. And maybe dream of humans to go to Mars, will be realized.
Lift was originally just a fantasy, but it turns out the discovery of a new technology, it is becoming very possible to be realized. It is Carbon nanotube technology, new material is said to be stronger than diamond and lighter than steel. This will allow the start of a new era in penjelahajan space.
8. Entering the Era of Hyper-Sonic, scramjet
Scramjet will be one of the main transport greatest revolution in the history of the world. The most advanced fighter aircraft in the world today, the F / A-22 Raptor American owned a maximum speed of Mach 2, or 2 times the speed of sound. Scramjet passenger aircraft, will take you to fly at speeds 10 times the speed of sound, Mach 10. Flights from New York to Tokyo are now taken within 18 hours of a long and tiring, will be pursued scramjet, in just 120 minutes.
Scramjet does not need to wear regular rocket fuels are expensive and heavy, fuel use liquid hydrogen mixed with oxygen siphoned directly from the atmosphere (air-breathing scramjet engine). Combustion of hydrogen and oxygen at supersonic speed is what will accelerate the speed. This will make flying from one place to another around the world to be super fast.
9. Fountain Of Youth,
Resveratrol Maybe later we can find something that allows us to live hundreds of years. But scientists may have found it, something called "Sirtuin", Silent Information Regulator 2 (Sir2) proteins and resveratrol, substances antioxidant that turns are found in red grapes (So often eat grapes.) But scientists have also been create something even more powerful than resveratrol is a drug with the code, SRT1720.
"SRT1720 is a thousand times more potent than resveratrol, meaning that it could be taken in smaller doses. A person would have to drink Hundreds of glasses of wine to get the same health benefits from resveratrol. Resveratrol will pretty soon look like ancient technology, "David Sinclair, a biologist at Harvard Medical School
10. Singularity.
Someday, there will come a time when all human beings through genetic engineering will have physical and intelligence that was almost perfect. Then with the advancement of computer technology, quantum computing and nanotechnology allows humans to enter Quantum Computer-sized particles into the brain and using nanoparticles to further strengthen his body. This is called Singularity. The unification between human biology with technology.
That some of the future development of computer technology which can further facilitate human life. Because I think the primary function of technology is created in order to facilitate human life.
