Top 10 emerging technologies that will impact our future

The World Economic Forum released its 'Top 10 Emerging Technologies of 2023' report on June 26, which congregates the mindsets of over 90 academics, industry leaders, and futurists from 20 countries around the world, to uncover the technologies most likely to impact the world. in the next three to five years.

From combating climate crisis to generative artificial intelligence (AI) models, mentioned below are the top 10 emerging technologies in four different sectors, most likely to improve our future:

Fighting climate crisis

Sustainable aviation fuel: Sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) will move the aviation industry towards net-zero carbon emissions. Today, SAFs meet around 1% of aviation industry fuel demand, but this will increase to 13-15% by the year 2040.

Wearable plant sensors: A device for monitoring crops. According to the UN, global food production will need to increase by 70% by 2050 to feed the growing world population. These devices will assist in monitoring temperature, humidity, moisture and nutrient levels to help in improving crop yields and detect early signs of disease.

Sustainable computing: With the exponential technology growth, more data center capacity is needed which consumes global electricity production. Sustainable computing aims to utilize digital resources in such a manner that there is net zero impact on the environment.

AI-powered technologies

Generative artificial intelligence (AI): The fast-growing AI is far more than penned texts, images and sound. AI applications are now in use to design drugs for specific medical conditions, architecture and engineering. NASA is also developing AI systems to create lightweight space instruments, reducing development time.

AI-facilitated healthcare: Emerging AI-based technologies and machine learning tools could help the global healthcare sector which often lacks sufficient infrastructure and staff to provide widespread access to healthcare services.

Healthcare technologies

Metaverse for mental health: Virtual world will open up digital space for people to share the same platform to provide mental health treatments.

Designer phages: Phages are viruses that help to identify and infect specific types of bacteria with genetic information for treatment. Phage's genetic details can be reprogrammed for changing the instructions it transmits to the bacteria.

Spatial omics: Spatial omics is a method that scientists can use to observe details of cells and biological processes that were previously unobservable, this will help in mapping biological processes at the molecular level.

Engineering

Flexible batteries: With an increasing number of portable and compact electronic devices, a more flexible type of battery is emerging to power them. Flexible batteries are made of lightweight, twisty and stretchy materials that can even be coated onto carbon fiber or cloth. According to the report, these rechargeable bendable batteries can support computer screens, smart clothing and wearable electronics.

Flexible neural electronics: Brain-machine interfaces (BMI) allow direct communication between the brain and external electronic devices. BMI-type technologies are used to cure patients with prosthetics that use electrodes to connect with the nervous system.

Solid evidence of flowing water on Mars, the red planet of the Solar System: Images of pebbles and rocks found

Image
- Amazing exploration of NASA's Perseverance rover - Rocks and pebbles found at Castel Henlez, near Jezero Ulcakund, must have been washed up by stormy river floods in the past. Washington/Mumbai: The mysteries and wonders of our solar system, including the infinite universe, are also being discovered. Earth's neighbor and the red planet of the Solar System, Mars, has strong evidence of past flowing water. The Perseverance rover of the American space research organization National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), which is researching on Mars, has found strong evidence of water flowing on the surface of Mars in the past, i.e. millions of years ago. Evidence has been found. Now, based on all these evidences, there is also a strong indication that if there was flowing water on this red planet in the past, there must have been a phase of life there. NASA sources informed that our Perseverance rover has landed in the vicinity of Jezero meteorite on Mars on February

China's new preoccupation.

Image
Many countries are currently paying special attention to the India-China-Pakistan border. America, who called Corona a Chinese virus, has once again given its belligerent mood by calling Tibet an independent country. Right now, Biden is in a mood to teach China a lesson. Ever since India started taking interest in the climate of Gilgit region, the Pakistani and Chinese armies have been at loggerheads. Strict reciprocal seizures have been made by all three countries along the Kashmir and Aksai China borders. After the lockdown, the increasing tension on the border between China and Ladakh is taking a serious form. Indian Army Chief General visits Ladakh but tensions remain latent, not abated. This is a dangerous new move by China. It remains to be seen that a situation like Doklam, which happened three years ago, does not arise on the Tibet-Sikkim-Bhutan triangle. For that, special attention needs to be paid to the strategy of politics and foreign relations. The world was dried up und

Now that our sun has also locked down, will our earth freeze?

Image
New delhi date. 18 May 2020, Monday The worldwide lockdown has been caused by the Corona virus. Harmful gases emitted into the environment are also being reduced, which has benefited the environment a lot, but the sun's lockdown has increased the risk of many things on Earth. Scientists say that many places can get very cold due to the sun going into lockdown. Earthquakes can cause earthquakes and tsunamis can have a negative impact on crops. Scientists say that the sun is currently in the state of 'Sun Minimum'. That means the sun is resting. Some experts are also calling it a recession and lockdown of the sun. 'Sun Minimum' means a decrease in activity on the surface of the sun. Experts say that the sun is entering the phase of recession, in which the sun spot on the surface of the sun is decreasing. Thus, the reduction of sun spots on the surface of the sun is not considered appropriate. According to the information, in the 17th and 18th centuries, the sun be

This machine is even more effective than a ventilator in the corona virus epidemic

Image
New York, April 29, 2020, Thursday Efforts to find a vaccine to treat the corona virus are in full swing, with ventilators being the most talked about in medical devices these days because the ventilator comes in handy when a corona patient has difficulty breathing. Patients with a very serious and delicate condition have more time to fight infection but one study found that a machine that increases the amount of oxygen in the blood may prove important for the treatment of a corona patient. This is according to research conducted at several West Virginia University hospitals. This experiment involving extraporous membrane oxygenation was performed on 32 patients. The study found that 17 out of 32 people benefited from the machine in 24 days. This machine is used during heart and lung disease. It works to deliver oxygen to the body at such times so that the lungs and heart get rest. The study also found that there was no benefit in the rest of the treatment but now it has been found

New Delhi: For the first time, astronomers have captured a radio signal indicating a hidden planet in a crucial discovery. These signals are captured by the low-frequency array (LOFAR) of the Netherlands' most powerful radio antenna in the world. The new technique of finding hidden planets can also provide information about life outside the solar system, which has been the biggest question for astronomy so far. Are we alone or is there anyone else. Dr. of the University of Queensland. The discovery was made by Benjamin Pope and his associates at the Dutch National Observatory Astron. Astronomers are searching for planets using LOFAR. Astronomers have discovered 14 distant red dwarfs, four of which are known to be orbiting planets. We have long known that the magnetic fields of our solar system planets emit powerful radio waves when they are exposed to the solar wind, but we have not yet been able to capture the radio signals outside our planetary system. Previously, every astr

Are obese people at higher risk of coronary heart disease?

Image
London, May 15, 2020, Friday New research is being conducted on Covid-19 disease caused by Corona virus. The purpose of this research is to make people aware and prevent cora infection until vigilance is the only way to find a cure for Covid-19. Over the years, many studies have shown that overweight people have a higher risk of heart disease, cancer and type 2 diabetes, but preliminary tests on Covid-19 found that obese people have a higher risk of Covid-19. In countries 600 million adults and 100 million children suffer from obesity. A study of 17,000 people in Britain found that those with an obesity index of more than 30 had a mortality rate of 33 per cent. Another study found that such people had twice as many deaths. 34.05 per cent of those admitted to ICU in Britain were overweight. The World Obesity Federation says people with a BMI above 25 were more likely to be infected with the corona virus. Early research in the United States, Italy and China suggests that higher BMI is
