Future Technologies:
Imagine a world where technological advances make disease and illness a thing of the past. Imagine having the ability to store your life’s history into a device that you can use to bring your memory back to life when you need it.
These are all devices and developments that are currently being looked into by scientists and researchers from all over the world. Cellular phone technology is expected to be far more advanced over the next ten years or so.
Many cellular phones today are equipped to handle music files, videos and many other entertainment aspects. Imagine having a phone that will work with your home entertainment system and find programs that interest you and then automatically download those programs for you to watch on your way to work.
These cellular phones will be like having a virtual assistant in your pocket. And, technology improves and new developments are made with each passing year so having a phone like this in the near future is not so far-fetched.
Other technologies will also see growth and development. Having the ability to cure diseases before they even strike or the technology to implant vital organs to save lives are things that have been in constant development for several years.
The technology that surrounds medical research is substantially more advanced than it was even twenty years ago. Cancer could one day be completely curable not matter the type or how far advanced the disease is found to be.

Or, it could simply be one of those illnesses that individuals receive an immunization for when they are young so that they never contract the actual disease. Vehicles may actually be able to hover above the ground producing a much faster and more efficient way in which to travel.
Future technologies remain to be seen but one can assume at the rate that things have changed in the past, things will be much more advanced in the future.
The technology in the future may well not produce any of these things, but chances are better that they will.
Given what the world has now compared to what it had 100 years ago, it stands to good reason that future technology will bring us things that we simply can not live without.
