Internet of Things
Futuristic technology from IoT
What futuristic technology will you see in your lifetime? Mark Robert Burton, link building manager, RS Components reveals how the Internet of Things is set to change the technology in your life
O
ver the next few decades, the Internet of Things is set to shape the world in ways that we can’t
even comprehend. These innovations will revolutionise the way we live and work, and RS components has revealed how in their recent interactive graphic. The international research firm Gartner estimates that by the end of last year, there were 3.8 billion connected things out there—smart cars, smoke detectors, door locks, industrial robots, streetlights, heart monitors, trains, wind turbines, even tennis racquets and toasters.
By 2020, Gartner estimates there will be 25 billion of these smart devices, transmitting tiny amounts of data to us, to the cloud and to each other. The automotive industry is set to change drastically with the first 3D printed car predicted to go into production in 2022. Many car companies are already using the technology to create prototypes and to more efficiently create specific parts of a vehicle. The automotive startup Local Motors is aiming to begin production on a full size car using 3D printing in the next few years. The company has already created several prototypes, but will begin taking orders for its production model in 2016. A recent McKinsey study estimated that the value of people’s time spent doing domestic chores is around $11 trillion today and is expected to climb to over $23 trillion by 2025. That is staggering.
IoT-enabled smart home “orchestrators” have the potential to streamline how we manage the home and all the tasks and chores within it. With natural language interfaces, access to all historical home usage data and machine learning features, these orchestrators can truly change how we manage our homes and related home activities. Over 50 per cent of internet traffic
delivered to homes will be for your appliances and devices due to home automation by 2024.
Just a year later in 2025, augmented
reality lessons will become popular at all levels in education, and learning will be brought to life. Teachers and students will strap on VR goggles and all travel to the same virtual location.
The first transplant of a 3D-printed liver will take place through a process called bioprinting in 2025. 3D printing is a promised end to solving the shortage we face as simply put, we need more livers than the donor register can offer as hepatitis, cirrhosis and liver cancer are increasingly prevalent.
Artificially intelligent personal assistants will take the form of holographic avatars by 2033. They’ll be able to have conversations with you, write emails for you, book appointments, perform tasks, and even anticipate your needs. Looking ahead, we can expect personal assistants to fully respond to natural language, including
colloquialisms and our personal idiosyncrasies. Personal assistants will be accessible to us 24/7 and they should also reduce the time spent doing domestic chores by McKinsey. It is also predicted that cars will be
purely automated and user-free by 2037. The introduction of fully automated vehicles would transform the lives of older people, particularly in rural areas, the report by the International Longevity Centre UK (ILC-UK) concludes. It could also potentially save older drivers hundreds of pounds a year in insurance premiums if
tests show that the driverless cars can, as claimed, reduce the risk of accidents. The Internet of Things is quickly becoming an imperative across a number of industries and the adoption of the technology will continue to accelerate as companies will strive to deliver services that generate new sustainable revenue sources while enhancing the experiences of their customers. Thousands of businesses worldwide are already reaping IoT’s rewards and the graphic reveals how it will affect everyday life too. This is the tech of your future.
