Top 10 Futuristic Inventions

Top 10 Futuristic Inventions
The Institute for the Future, a research organization devoted to providing foresight about the world ahead, thinks that many of these Top 10 Futuristic Inventions will exist within the next 10 years.
Longevity Escape Velocity Therapy
Dr. Aubrey de Grey is a Cambridge gerontologist who is making waves in the field of Gerontology – the study of aging and he believes that the first person who could live to be 1,000 years old is already alive today. Longevity escape velocity is a concept based not on stopping the aging process, but on undoing the damage done by the wear and tear of life. The therapy works by stimulating the immune system to selectively target and kill “death-resistant cells” that have lost the ability to divide, so that healthy cells can then multiply and replenish the tissue. The therapy will ultimately add to an individual’s life expectancy faster than they are using it up.
Gender Swapping Pills
Gender identity has become an issue in today’s society, and as time goes on, it'll only get more complex as scientific developments continue over time. With Gender XY-Change, a pill that could instantly change your hormone levels so you can experience life as the opposite sex, people would develop greater empathy toward one another. The effects would last until the other pill is taken, but there is no current understanding of the consequences of mixing and stacking the XY Pills…
Brain Implants
By 2026, couples could have the option to get brain implants that allow them to read one another's minds. Rather than rely on self-reports about emotional states and well-being, they can just know. The company supplying this service will be called Amethyst. "One little device lets you truly be together, even when you're apart," the IFTF stated in a 2015 report. It will allow you to think and move as one, without words, or even thoughts. If you’re into that kind of thing…
A New Currency To Boost Online Education
Similar to Bitcoin, Edublocks might serve as a new virtual currency exclusive to online education. If you watch a three-minute guitar lesson or an hour-long physics lecture on, you'd receive a set quantity of Edublocks to match the time you invested. The lessons would be recorded on a database that other people can access to see what you've learned. These education skills can will used to buy more training, boosting education throughout the global online community.
Augmented Reality
Public speaking could get a whole lot easier with Winning Friends, an augmented-reality software that would give you real-time updates about your audience and tips to make your presentation the best it can be. Winning Friends will help you master persuasion whether you’re addressing a single individual or a packed stadium. With the app, you'd know exactly when to smile more or project your voice so that you appear confident and authoritative. These are the kind of tips many people need so they can conquer public speaking.
“Golden Blood” Donation Kits
The rarest blood type in the world has only been discovered in 43 people. “Golden Blood”, also known as Rh-null, is a true universal donor. This means that anybody who needs a blood transfusion can be saved with this rare blood type. The problem is that those 43 people can only accept Rh-null blood. Home donation kits could allow people with Golden Blood to sell it at a high cost — upward of $2,400 a litre. They could also use these profits for when they need to buy more of it in the event of an injury.
Microbial Mood Rings
Scientists are finding that people's microbiome — the bacteria in their gut — is essentially a second brain. The Microbial Mood Ring would contain a perfect replica of the wearer's microbiome which gives people unprecedented access to their current state of health. When you encounter an environment that might negatively affect that bacteria, the ring would change colours, prompting you to leave or perhaps wash your hands. It’s a great way to guide you toward the things which will be good for you.
Reputation Statements
If we want to gauge someone's worth, we shouldn't go by their bank account or assets. Instead, we should develop a Reputation Statement — an itemized list of each person's monthly social acts, similar to a utility bill. A nobler form of currency would incentivize people to act in a way that benefits their community, rather than themselves. It's proof you've done something good to make this money, and it's not like you won the lottery or made a killing in the stock market.
An Indulgence Navigator
A wearable device could use people's genetics and psychological profile to track their cravings and help them to avoid eating unhealthy foods during moments of weakness. The Indulgence Navigator would present biometric data through augmented reality. If you're about to open a candy bar and your heart rate and saliva levels spike, the device could send you an alert. It also works for smoking, recreational drugs and other addictions which are difficult to kick.
EZ Lift Physical Activity App
The EZ Lift would encourage people to take the stairs instead of the elevator or escalator. Each person would start the day with a certain number of "lift" credits; as they exhaust them, an augmented-reality display would let everyone know they're running low. People can earn credits by taking the stairs, or walking instead of driving. The idea would be to nudge people toward exercise by making public health truly public.
