Today I came across a brilliant website which to me shows just how much innovation will impact our lives in the future. I will focus on the ones that personally interest me. IBM scientists are looking at ways of understanding and minimising the environmental impact of converting ocean wave energy into electricity, they are working on the knowledge that everything that moves or produces heat has the potential to create energy that can be captured.
At the present time we use passwords to access our database, in the future we will not need a password as scientists are working on methods such as biometric data, facial definitions, voice files and retinal scan, which are part of our individual identify.Imagine paying for products or accessing your bank account by looking at a retinal scanner, or saying a sentence!
This is the future and innovation will take us further! Please take a minute to have a look at the video below, it contains more revolutionary innovative ideas and it further explains the two above.
