Top 10 Technologies That Bloomed In 2016 – A World Economic Forum Report

It is widely recognized fact that modern technologies are changing every day and thousands of new have been launched in recent years. Advancement in technologies’ part is also affecting all aspects of human life and most importantly they have had significant impact in the industrial setup as well as on overall business world. Here is a list of the top 10 emerging technologies of 2016 which are playing key role in shaping the future of our generations. The World Economic Forum’s Meta-Council has released this list as “Top 10 Emerging Technologies of 2016”. All these technologies are world recognized and will play key role to change the world in coming years.

1. Nanosensors and the Internet of Nano things will reform daily use devices

Researchers succeeded in breaking sensors from microns size to the nano-meters. This is a simple yet very important invention towards the Internet of Nano Things as with this technique tiny particles can be dispersed easily within human bodies as well as mixed directly into many other materials. This technology could take medical, energy, construction and many other sectors to new heights and set new dimensions. IoT produced from microprocessors and microsensors after that paired with tiny power supplies. These particles are expanding rapidly and New IoT devices are also launched almost daily. The market statistics expected up to 30 billion of them to be available online within almost every daily use devices by 2020.

2. The Blockchain helping in Building a revolutionary decentralized trust system

The Blockchain technology is changing money, business world and our daily life in a dramatic way. It allows smart devices to contract for data sharing through block chains. Financial industry is more excited about this technology as it is helping in money exchange and transfer without bank accounts. This technology maintains strangers’ record, enforceable contracts without a lawyer. Selling property, event tickets, stocks, and other things will become easy with blockchain technology as it will create a decentralized trust system.

3. 2-D Materials or “Wonder materials” are on apt pricing

Wonder materials carry very interesting properties and can be combined easily with a number of materials to change their properties. For example if they are combined with carbon, graphyne can be produced and it is stronger than steel and very light in weight. This technology will give potential impact on photography, video installation, conductive displays etc. Analysts believe that it will also give potential impact in healthcare and other sectors.

4. Organs-on-chips medical testing through chips instead of organs

First time the Wyss Institute developed a lung-on-a-chip in 2010. Afterward, a fight start among a number of private industry’s leaders and they succeeded in making miniature models of chips for kidney, liver, lung, heart cornea and bone marrow. Today, a number of important biological studies can be done only by studying an organinon chips. Organ-chips are the size of a USB memory stick and made up of a flexible and translucent polymer. This technique could be helpful for those companies who are in drug development and clinical trials to give a boost to medical industry.

5. Perovskite Solar Cells Carries Superb Power Conversion Efficiency (PCE)

This new technique use hybrid organic-inorganic lead halide-based material which is cheap and efficient. Basically it guarantees 3 developments in the classic silicone solar cell including it is easier to make, handy to take anywhere and generates power efficiently for a long time period.

6. Optogenetics Use Light to Control Mind

Optogenetics is a biological technique that uses light and colour to control living tissues cells and help in keeping record of neurons’ activities in the brain. With new developments this technology will be very helpful to deliver a better treatment for those people who have brain disorder.

7. Open AI Ecosystem handles everything from artificial to contextual intelligence

Associated with business magnate Elon Musk, Open AI aims to carefully promote and develop open-source friendly AI (artificial intelligence) in such a way as to benefit, rather than harm, humanity as a whole. Open AI Ecosystem could ensure higher productivity, better health and happiness globally through smart digital assistance. This technology will help in planning like appointments scheduling, travel plans, information search etc digitally anytime anywhere.

8. Systems Metabolic Engineering will produce new Chemicals

Systems Metabolic Engineering will produce chemicals from renewable sources’ microorganisms which are difficult to produce by conventional methods. It will help to deal with the issue of limited fossil resources. It is also enable technology that will help in producing chemicals and fuels from renewable resources.

9. Autonomous Vehicles Capable of Sensing its Surrounding

This technique will help in developing automatic cars and other devices which can sense their environment and can navigate without human beings input. These type of vehicles process a huge amount of sensory data from camera, GPS and ultrasonic range- finder et and direct autonomous vehicles to reacts accordingly.

10. Next Generation Batteries

Next generation batteries are produced by using chemicals like zinc, aluminum and sodium etc. They are more powerful than solar and wind batteries and can fulfill the demands of power of big factories, towns and villages etc. These batteries are affordable, safer, smaller in size and reliable to bring electricity anywhere.
The compiled list of new technologies is based on a report produced by the “World Economic Forum”. This list goes on with new inventions and developments everyday!
