Over the last decade or so, we develop curiosity and as Mars rover heard about inventions, and self-driving cars. But here, except that if the sound out of a 11 Issac Asimov novel technologies actually exist. The rays of the installed on Navy ships and bullets with their own minds and to learn more. 11 technologies that will surprise you:
11. Hoverboards
Car Maker put their collective minds together with countless engineers and researchers have managed to produce Lexus and, of all things, a working hoverboard! Slide is powered by hoverboard magnets and superconductors cooled by liquid nitrogen. It uses powerful magnets to float above the rails cool that works more or less the same principle as a maglev train.
In this case, the Lexus too, with lots of magnets in the building, Barcelona, an incredibly expensive custom skate park built in Spain.
Unfortunately, there is no slide hoverboard sales, and as your city council persuaded to build a very expensive skate park with lots of built expensive magnets in the ground, there is no way it will soon near you any time be an exercise in futility will be coming to a skate park. hoverboards technologies one that will surprise you.
Ranking among the technologies will surprise you, the Bell Boeing V-22 Osprey aircraft tiltrotor basically, is, takes off and the plane to a turbo-prop in an old garden lands the type of helicopter, but fly turns off the engine plane forwards to work as an aircraft engine. According to Boeing's website, "vertical position with the rotors, take it off the ground, and can hover like a helicopter. Air once, a turboprop airplane capable of high-speed, flying high altitude I can change. "
The 446 km / H is at a cruise speed than 240km / H of the Chinook helicopter cruise speed, and even within a single, ASR is much longer range than the helicopters brought 32 radius of being able to send troops ready for battle 722 km.
A Marine general quote, Osprey "turned a battle space that the size of Rhode Island was the size of Texas." The United States Marine Corps, the United States has entered service with the Air Force, everything from carrying troops across Afghanistan, and evacuate wounded soldiers from the war zone.

8. Invisibility Devices – Technologies That Will Surprise You
The CRYSIS game, you are invisible and play a soldier in a suit that might toss Aliens Hacky Sacks. Out of video games, Dallas Nanotech Institute is an atom-thick sheets of carbon rolled into Institute scientists microscopic tube that bend light around the carbon nano-tubes, sheets sheets, effectively cloaking use them.
The technique is the same effect that an empty patch of land to use is the cause of death to think is an oasis in the desert travelers, the Mirage effect. Sand and turn the temperature difference between the rays of light, the hapless traveler instead of bouncing light rays directed toward the eyes. This land is a "puddle of heaven" will consider any traveler who is desperate to die in the water.
Carbon Nano Tube Sheets immersed in water and hot water, which was behind the hot lights, and bend the sheet because the sheet which was some ambiguity. As you will have to wear a super suite that can be immersed in water, it is applicable as a military cloaking device, but it is certainly as good as hell.
7. Electromagnetic Railguns – Technologies That Will Surprise You
In our list of technologies that will surprise you there’s a thing called electromagnetic railguns. Remember that scene in Transformers: Dark of the Moon, where Agent Simmons calls in a “railgun” strike from a destroyer on a giant Decepticon on the Pyramids of Giza?
For the uninitiated, a railgun is a basically a bunch of magnets used to propel a projectile. Small scale railguns have existed in universities, but the US military managed to build one that, according to a US Navy officer, impacts like “a freight train going through the wall at a hundred miles an hour.”
After years of research, the United States Navy unveiled a real-life rail gun in February at its Science and Technology Expo that can fire projectiles at seven times the speed of sound, and it can hit targets 110 miles away. Even better, a rail-gun has been fitted on the USNS Trenton for test purposes. Construction of combat-ready rail-guns for the next generation US Navy combat ships are projected to begin in 2028. If all goes to plan, missiles and shells might be obsolete in the next century or so, who knows?
6. Laser Weapons – Technologies That Will Surprise You
We do not have anywhere near the terrible destructive power of the Death Star in Star Wars, but the Naval Research of the US Office currently operational laser weapon system (properly shortened to the rules of a special committee that is What all these cool names?) carry out regular exercises with 2014. laser sailors on the ship, and even then destroyed with the goals which have been installed on the USS Ponce. The job comes with an opportunity to destroy things with lasers?
Rules of a death in the rays 6 normal-ish lasers with a power of 30 kW, and the way the way you can just use a $ 759,000 per shot, which is cheaper than missiles $ 59 St. once the roast is potential for UAVs and boats. There are also anti-lock ammunition Martin Area Defense (Adam) in the defense system against incoming projectiles, and there are other lasers such as the Boeing 10KW High Energy Laser Mobile demonstrator. Laser weapons, many technologies, that will surprise you, but one day it may be between being a reality.
5. Ion Engines
Star Wars Trilogy (Original Trilogy, mind you!), TIE fighters everywhere twin ion engines evil empire, hence the name are powered by TIE. He is no where nearly as powerful as the one shown in the film, even though you may be surprised to learn that science is out of the ion engines fiction. Dawn spacecraft takes 4 days to go from 0-60mph! Ion engines will surprise you, but really an organized technology to create a working prototype ion engine at NASA exist.The boffins 1959, and close to Deep Space 1 and Dawn space probe. Deep Space 1 probe total of 4.5 km of 263 million kilometers from the maximum speed of a second, and new HIPEP Thruster, under development at NASA, is traveling at 90 kilometers a second exhaust velocities.
Work out an inert gas (remember high school chemistry?) At high speed to get a small amount of ion thrusters acceleration. Although the output thrust is rather small, craft with ion engine can reach very high speeds of ion engines generate a little enthusiasm for a long time.
4. Bionic eyes – technologies that will surprise you
It may sound like something out of the Six Million Dollar Man, but scientists have managed to fit Ray Flynn, the 80-year-old British man with the most common form of blindness, age-related Mascular with Argus II implant degeneration, (which costs a cool $ 150,000) in June. Amazingly, he was able to see immediately that determine when his eyes were turned on the device, and only the doctor's eyes that will improve with time, Dr. Paolo items with closed Stanga hope.
Argus II, made by Second Sight Medical Products, California from a camera attached to his glasses that part of the signal, which is based in California are sent to small electrodes attached to the undamaged cells in the retina Video eye that works by changing the feed detects light and sends it to the brain. undamaged cells are stimulated and send signals to the brain. Argus II that will surprise you, but the EU is approved for marketing is one of these technologies, and is approved under a humanitarian device exemption in the United States.
3. Self-Guiding Bullet – Technologies That Will Surprise You
Unlike real life sniping, Call of Duty, with the target to do so and vital movements, such as range, bullet drop, gravity, wind speed, humidity, and also circulation account factors of land the required delay between firing and impact. In the future, snipers have only indicated by a red dot on a target and pull the trigger, Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) can be gifted pulled the rabbit out of his magic hat, EXACTO (if extreme accuracy Ordnance- assigned Who comes up with these names?) self-guided bullet, a revised Article 50 of the nail.
That's right, a self-guided bullet - the Sou will surprise one of these technologies. That is why it can change in mid-flight. System details (obviously) make so much you would need a telescope to see that the conviction rate, but EXACTO knock down targets at 2000 meters in the system's capabilities, and turns sharp midflight the ability. It is also moving targets, can shoot, kill, whether by a trained marksman or a novice shooter.
This is a season and a target reduction guidance systems to allow for other factors that might feel (it as magic or power by trimming the beard of Chuck Norris, maybe classified) Type uses. Objects (like people) Imagine pills that can deviate around obstacles to hit behind them. We should be awed by fear, or both?
2. Organs Grown In a Lab
In the distant future, humans may not have to worry about little things like organ failure. Researchers at Edinburgh University in Scotland has managed to grow a fully functioning organ in an animal, in this case, mice. He thought he managed to trick the cells from a mouse embryo is part of an organ of the immune system which was moving in the thymus. Cells and lab mice were then injected into a fully functional risen in the thymus. Unfortunately, they have not figured out how to apply the same technique to humans.
Lab-grown blood vessels, also windpipes and bladders. Scientists scaffolds made after that patient's own cells, then "seeded" with which he had been implanted in patients. A custom titanium rib cage has been created for a patient in Spain. Who knows, maybe in a hundred years we must be able to order parts according to their own will and they'll swap out. The hope for this specific field of scientific research is on the right track.
1. Fusion Reactors
Number one on our list of technologies that will surprise fusion reactor. Fusion reactors, the European JET tokamak reactor, and the ITER reactor under construction, using the same reaction in the sun to generate electricity. This may sound incredible to many people. Sun, hydrogen atoms collide, and then they give away incredible amounts of energy in the process to fuse into heavier helium atoms.
Earth, on the impact of a merger between the two hydrogen isotopes, deuterium and tritium, is used to produce energy. For the reaction to a temperature higher than the temperature of the Sun is 10 times. Their temperature, separated from nuclei and electrons from the plasma, a very hot, electrically charged gas are making.
Plasma is using giant magnets, and reactive power change the neutrons produced by the process, will be used to generate heat to turn turbines. This, compared to the might sound like a lot of trouble fossil fuel plants is already mature technologies to generate electricity, but fusion can be recycled in the reactor helium, and minimize radioactive waste for 100 years that is, to take off as by-products.
Helium is a chemical that is a gas which is not, and floating balloons are used to fill out, and far less greasy than fusion reactor waste radioactive waste from fission reactors. Coal plants and brothers contributing to global warming in their use of fossil fuels, will take incredible amounts of greenhouse gases.
As fusion reactors, represent the future of clean energy production for our generation is to meet the growing energy needs of a growing population without making the pollution worse than it is already. The lock companies such as Lockheed Martin, as currently compact fusion reactor (we're looking Elon Musk, to do so!) To aircraft that are on Mars and can fly for a year without really cool programs can be used as working refueling.
