Futurism & Inspiring Inventions
The presentation of a major upgrade to Tesla’s self-driving suite shocked viewers due to a video demo of the beta car’s futuristic dashboard in action.
Scientists have invented a new ultra-white paint that is said to be able to reflect 95.5 percent of the sunlight that reaches its surface. This unimaginable characteristic allows an object coated in this paint, like a building, to cool underneath the temperatures of its surroundings even under intense sunlight.
Virtual reality software which allows researchers to ‘walk’ inside and analyze individual cells could be used to understand fundamental problems in biology and develop new treatments for disease. #virtualreality
The Los Angeles Fire Department (LAFD) has secured the assistance of a firefighting robot to quell fires in the city where human firefighters cannot.
An engineer and YouTuber based in Canada has created a fully functional – and likely very deadly – lightsaber, turning the concept introduced over four decades ago by the first Star Wars film into a reality. #LightSaber #StarWars
Ring, the controversial door camera and home security service developed by Amazon, has announced its most disturbing product yet, a security camera attached to a drone that will fly around the customer’s home, watching for potential intruders. #AlwaysHomeCam
Scientists around the world are creating things that we would consider science fiction. The reality of Star Trek and Star Wars is now upon us as found in super technology.
Is your home future-proof? In other words, is it ready for all the technological innovations that are just around the corner? If not, read on…
Researchers for the U.S. Army are hoping to formulate a new shape-shifting material that can heal itself on its own in hopes to achieve the kind of futuristic killing technology famously depicted in the 1991 science-fiction film, Terminator 2. #shapeshifting
Elon Musk says we are essentially within a year of fully autonomous cars being a reality. #selfdrivingcar
As people have been quick to point out, the resemblance between the new theater and the legislative chamber from the Star Wars prequels is uncanny.

A big advance in carbon capture technology could provide an efficient and inexpensive way for natural gas power plants to remove carbon dioxide from their flue emissions, a necessary step in reducing greenhouse gas emissions to slow global warming and climate change. #reducecarbon
A team of physicists plans to build a functional teleporter that aims to work as a bridge across two points in space using a simulation of two quantum entangled black holes utilizing quantum circuitry. #quanumteleportation
Elon Musk envisions a world in which humans are outfitted with micro-sized “neural lace” technology. When it reaches its full potential, the effects will be nothing short of mind-blowing. We will be able to control physical objects with our thoughts, have conversations between minds with no words, and literally live other people’s experiences, including all forms of physical activity. #artificialintelligence
The quest for immortality has been with the human race since its inception. The author weighs in on what is now being called the new era of cyborgs, where it is seen that brain transplants could revive the dead. #braintransplant #brainimplant
