Examples of currently emerging technologies:

nanotechnology

Generally nanotechnology deals with structures that are the size of 100 nanometers or smaller. It involves developing materials or devices within that size.

EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES

Manufactured products are made from atoms. The properties of those products depend on how those atoms are arranged.

If we rearrange the atoms in coal, we can make diamond.

If we rearrange the atoms in sand (and add a few other trace elements), we can make computer chips.

One example of nanotechnology at work is the the study of nanoparticles. These are being used to send anticancer drugs directly to cancer cells to kill them without harming nearby non-cancerous cells.

biotechnology

Biotechnology refers to modifying living things to meet the needs of humans. It began long ago with domestication of animals and the cultivation of plants, which are now considered commonplace. In modern times it refers to genetic engineering as well as cell and tissue culture technologies.

Biotechnology is technology based on biology, agriculture, food science, and medicine.


Examples of Biotechnology

Tobacco plants being used to create patient specific vaccines for treating cancer. This research is a part of biotechnology that uses engineered crops to trigger an immune response when ingested.

Examples of Biotechnology

Biotechnicians are working to improve the color, smell, size, and other features of flowers. Likewise, research is ongoing to engineer crops that are cold and drought resistant. This would enable crops to be grown in areas of land that are now deemed unsuitable for raising crops.

Examples of BiotechnologyPest Resistant Crops

To eliminate the need for crop dusting, scientists developed transgenic corn expressing Bt protein, causing the plant itself to repel harmful pests. After corn, this biotechnology was introduced to potato and cotton plants. The Bt protein is not toxic to humans, and transgenic crops make it easier for farmers to avoid costly infestations.

Cognitive ScienceCognitive science can be defined as the study of mind or the study of thought.

Would you like to study issues like “Why students don’t like school?”That’s what one cognitive scientist did.


Cognitive Science

It used to be that only doctors were interested in brain scans, searching the images for tumors, concussions or other health problems hiding inside a patient’s skull. More and more, though, images showing neurons firing in different areas of the brain are gaining attention from experts in fields as varied as law, marketing, education, criminology, philosophy and ethics. They want to know if business can sell more products or prisons boost their success rates in rehabilitating criminals.

Robotics

Robotics is the engineering science and technology of robots as well as their design, manufacture, and application.

If, in the future, machines have the ability to reason, be self-aware and have feelings, then what makes a human being a human being, and a robot a robot?

RoboticsAre there any kinds of robots that shouldn't be created?

RoboticsAutomation and the development of new technologies like robots is viewed by most people as inevitable. But many workers who lose their jobs consider this business practice unfair. Do you think the development of new technologies, and their implementation, is inevitable? What, if anything, should we as a society do for those people who lose their jobs?

Artificial Intelligence

Artificial intelligence is the intelligence of machines and the branch of computer science that aims to create it.The ultimate effort is to make computer programs that can solve problems and achieve goals in the world as well as humans.


Current Applications of Artificial Intelligence

Cell Phones

E-Mails

Fuel Injections Systems

Applications of Artificial Intelligence
