FUTURE MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY TRENDS IN MEDICINE

Future medical technology has already been mentioned on other pages on this website. I've already talked about future inventions including robotic surgery which is here now. On another page I've talked about future robots that include medical nanobots that target specific cancer cells and other diseased cells and either deliver medicine or remove them altogether.
But, what I didn't talk about on those other pages is that future trends in medicine involving robotic surgery will include the use of lasers, ultra high frequency sound wave, microwaves and pinpoint electromagnetic vibrations.
To expand upon future medical technology involving nanobots, this microscopic robots will not only deliver medicine and cut out unwanted cells, but they will do so precisely, automatically and thoughtfully. Just like robotic surgical machines will have access to large medical databases and make decisions on the fly more accurately than humans, medical nanobots a few years after this will be afforded the same empowerment.

At first, the future medical nanobots will take wireless instructions from a "thinking" computer host outside of the patient's body. But, as the medical nanorobotics field grows and chips and hard drive further downsized, then swarms of nanobots can be release into a human body, load sharing information and working as a team to cure illnesses, conditions and diseases.

Now, let's talk about some other future trends in medicine such as brain-computer interfaces, regenerative medicine, organ replacement, mental health reclamation, dream decoding, gene therapy, home self-monitoring, personalized drugs, bioengineering, bionic limbs and bionic organs, human cloning and customized babies.
It his here I have to note that not all of these future medical technology advances will occur concurrently. Social and moral discourse along with the zigzag evolutionary progression of the technology will hold some advances back while others will shoot to the forefront of popularity and functionality.
Brain-computer interfaces are nothing new. For several years now patients with organic brain diseases or traumatic brain injuries have been able to move a cursor around on a computer monitor using their thoughts. With future medical technology this interface will be much more robust especially in the areas of brain injuries and mental illness.
The brain-computer interface for brain injuries will be able to localize the specific cell-by-cell damage, report the areas of localization and help the patient through brain plasticity to migrate this functionality to other portions of the non-damaged tissue.
For patients with mental illness diagnoses such as thought disorders, hallucinations, delusions, OCD and a myriad of other disorders listed in the DSM IV will be recorded and dealt with using either localized brain stimulation or engaging other technologies such as nanorobots to deliver targeted medication.

As this future medical technology advances, traditional talk therapy from a psychotherapist will be replaced by computers with large databases that can cross reference case studies in nanoseconds and communicate directly with patients. Other applications for brain-computer communication for mental illness will be dealing with cases of PTSD where patients relive traumatic experiences such as war or rape.

The computer will be able to manage flashbacks, help the patient to deal with memories, loss, grief through using the most efficient and effective neural pathways to optimize brain function and healing channels.
Moving on to regenerative medicine, future medical technology will dictate that at first this will take place outside the human body and then through robotic surgery or nanorobots tissue will be replaced. Another offshoot of this process will be organ replacement.
At first, organs from other animals will be used as they are now. But future medical technology will dictate that this tissue will be combined with human tissue, then be transplanted into the patient. A little further down the road, medical technology will advance to the point where patients will grow new organs based upon their own tissue samples.
And based upon this technology this new organ growth will take place inside the body so the transplantation will become unnecessary. The old tissue will simply overtake the diseased tissue regenerating and replacing diseased or damaged tissue at an accelerated rate.
Mental health reclamation I've already discussed, but this will be aided by dream decoding. Right now medical science still does not know the function of dreams and dreaming. Future medical technology however, will crack the code of the healing power of dreaming, deciphering symbols and will use the power of this to not only cure insomnia and other sleep disorders, but to empower one's own dreams for optimal mental health.
The use of computers with large dream databases will be used along with large social dreaming networks where people can interact with others who are also dreaming worldwide. Safety and security nets will need to be employed to prevent all sorts of misuse such as dream bullying or other scare tactics. The dreamer will be able to opt out, change social networks or go off onto other peaceful tangents and fantasies of one's one if desired.
Gene therapy is already happening now and will become more robust in the future. With the Human Genome Project fully analyzed, future medical technology will be able to target specific defective genes in one's DNA and replace those genes with healthy ones. Future computers will easily track, record, analyze and put these in a huge medical database for others to use as needed.
Home self monitoring is also something that is already happening. Diabetics can export data into their home computer and graph insulin usage and other details. Those on CPAP for sleep apnea can also download results and track progress.
But future medical technology will reach a new level of home self monitoring never imagined before. In fact, for some patients, hospitals will become decentralized in that patients will be able to monitor their own conditions from the comfort of their own homes as the first line of defense, then upload the data to a more centralized medical center.
This medical center will analyze the data with a large database and neural network of cloud computing and may engage in some medical procedures with the patient at their own home. Adjusting medication intake, tracking cancer cell growth and deploying nanorobots as necessary and dealing with mental health issues are a few tasks that may be initiated by self monitoring but acted upon in locations outside the home.
In the future, personalized drugs will become increasingly common. No longer will huge pharmaceutical drug cartels roll out common pills for the masses that may have a host of side effects for a percentage of individuals. Small decentralized drug companies will take over that will serve individuals in certain regions.
Future medical technology will get to the point that medicine can be created to individual specifications on an economic basis. Drug companies will have access to a persons medical files from fetus to present age including genetics, diseases, DNA, data from nanorobots, from brain-computer communications, from dream decoding, gene therapy, home self-monitoring, bioengineering, cloning, bionics and a myriad of other medical information per individual. All of this cumulative data will be used to create designer medication specific to each human.
Now to move onto bionic limbs, they already exist and people are using them in the now. No longer is this science fiction, but it is indeed science fact. In the future, however, bionic limbs will be much more elegant and fluid in nature. People will be able to choose bionics over natural limbs and then have these procedures reverse.
Before some of the other more sophisticated technologies that I've already talked about come of age, bionic organs will be in place assisting people to stay alive and remain healthy. This will, however, most likely be more transitional technology than a permanent mainstay. Cold plasma will also be used in fighting disease and will become the norm not too many years from now.
Human cloning meets much resistance today and will continue to meet resistance though future gene splicing in a step-by-step fashion will help to curb some of this resistance. Conservative religious groups will thwart the growth of science and technology in this area in the near future. Because science and technology will continue to struggle to analyze and quantify the "soul" and "consciousness" to the satisfaction of the masses, this area will not advance as quickly as other areas.
Another area of moral objection will be customized babies. Some parents are presently engaging in this practice today, though it is very controversial. Some parents today create their children using only sperm or eggs from Mensa donors or other "super donors".
There are also some parents that today engage in genetic screening and use artificial insemination to pick suitable candidates basic partly upon genetics and partly upon other factors such as a donor's history, family, status, abilities and many more criteria.
Not all countries will have laws discouraging the future medical technology in this area, so people without moral reservations can shop abroad for services to create their customized children.
This is just a glimpse into the future medical technology that is not very far off. What I have outlined here is happening right now either commercially or in the research labs. This is not science fiction, but rather a prognostication of how the medical technology will play out in the months and years to come.

After the iPad? The iBoard and iMat, Of Course!

Bigger is always better, right?
Most people don't like the way Apple rolls out products. The company releases a device, only to roll out the "next version" a year later. The newer model usually contains only a few minor tweaks, which could have been implemented on the original (copy-paste on the iPhone anyone?).
It was this mindset that had people criticizing the iPad. "It's just a giant iPhone," they said. "It even runs the same OS as the iPhone and iPod Touch!" Well here's one for the people who think Apple's line of products has gotten just a bit too linear.
The folks over at begeek.fr have predicted the next two iterations of the Apple iPad. Behold! The iBoard and the iMat!

THE PERSONAL COMPUTER

Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak, the duo who began Apple Computer in 1976, are among the most well-known revolutionaries of the computing age. Their invention of the first true personal computer changed people's ideas of what a computer could look like and what it could do for them to make their lives easier and their work more efficient. Apple continues to be one of the best-known and most popular brands of personal computing devices in the world.
Steven Paul Jobs was born on Feb. 24, 1955, in San Francisco and adopted as an infant by a couple who raised him in Los Altos, Calif. He entered Reed College in Portland, Ore., in 1972 but dropped out after one semester to work for Atari, a maker of video games. He had become very interested in the emerging world of personal computing while still in high school, when he had begun attending lectures at Hewlett-Packard Co. where he met and befriended Wozniak.
Stephen Gary Wozniak was born on Aug. 11, 1959, in San Jose, Calif. He left the University of California at Berkeley before he finished his degree, to go to work for Hewlett-Packard. He and Jobs were very involved with a local organization called the Homebrew Computer Club where they discussed and experimented with hardware and software, including video games. It became clear to them that the personal computing era was about to heat up significantly.
Jobs became bent on starting a company of his own to build computers for individuals, and he convinced Wozniak to start it with him. They sold some of their prized belongings—for Jobs, a Volkswagen minibus and for Wozniak, a programmable HP calculator—to raise $1300 to launch the enterprise. They built their first machines in Jobs' family garage in 1976.
With Wozniak’s computing and software genius combined with Jobs' marketing prowess, success came relatively quickly. They sold their first fifty machines to a dealer called the Byte Shop in Mountain View, Calif. Dubbed "Apple Is," the computers sold for $666 each. They were the first single-board computers with onboard Read Only Memory, or ROM. They also had a video interface.
A year later, in 1977, Jobs and Wozniak introduced the Apple II, which included color graphics and which housed its electronics inside a plastic case. Programmers began creating applications for the Apple II at Jobs' urging; soon there were more than 15,000 applications available for the machine. This, the first mass marketed personal computer, took Apple to a new realm of success. The company secured $600,000 venture funding under the management of Mike Markkula, a former Intel executive, who signed on as Apple’s chairman.
In 1979, Apple designed its revolutionary Lisa computer; also that year, Wozniak was issued U.S. patent No. 4,136,359 for a microcomputer. Lisa, which finally hit the marketplace until 1983, was followed by development of Macintosh, which introduced to users the now-familiar icon-rich interface navigable by computer mouse. This interface has served as a model for virtually every consumer operating system maker in the world since.
Apple Computer went public in 1980, making its founders multi-millionaires; Jobs became chairman while Markkula took on the role of president. Wozniak left Apple after a plane crash damaged his memory in 1981 (though he has remained, officially, an Apple employee to this day). Jobs, meanwhile, continued to work on product development at Apple until 1985, when he left the company amid a power struggle with its then-president and CEO John Sculley.
Jobs started a new computer products company, NeXT, in 1989, which he hoped would compete with Apple; this venture was unsuccessful in hardware but it did introduce object-oriented programming, which helps tremendously in streamlining software development processes. Jobs sold NeXT Software to Apple in 1997. Jobs also took the helm of Pixar computer animation studios, which he purchased from George Lucas in 1986 for less than $10 million and, within a decade, had turned into a feature film-making powerhouse. The studio's first film made under his leadership, "Toy Story," was the highest grossing domestic film of 1995. Jobs continues to serve as CEO of Pixar Studios as of this 2007 writing.
Jobs also returned to Apple after a decade of absence; in 1996 he became an advisor to then-Apple chairman Gilbert F. Amelio. Jobs accepted the role of Apple chairman and CEO in 1997 and has since revitalized the company with improved products and services and the introduction of such highly successful product lines as the iPod and the MacBook.
Wozniak, meanwhile, took a different tack, heading back to school to complete his B.S. degree in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at U.C. Berkeley in 1987. He also became very involved in education, teaching fifth-grade students at local schools near his Silicon Valley, Calif., home and sponsoring a variety of education-focused programs in the U.S. and overseas. He consulted for Apple until 1985 and then founded CL 9, a company that developed remote control switches. In 2001, he co-founded Wheels of Zeus, or "WoZ," (which is also one of his nicknames), to create wireless GPS technology systems. WoZ closed in 2006, after which Wozniak co-founded Acquicor Technology with Gil Amelio.
Both Wozniak and Jobs have been recognized with countless awards and honors, including National Medals of Technology, awarded in 1985 by then-President Ronald Reagan. Wozniak was inducted into the Inventors Hall of Fame in 2000 and is a past recipient of the Heinz Award for Technology, The Economy and Employment. Jobs was granted the Jefferson Award for Public Service in 1987 and was named Entrepreneur of the Decade by Inc. Magazine in 1989.

THOMAS ALVA EDISON

Thomas Alva Edison (born February 11, 1847 – died October 18, 1931 at age 84 years) is the inventor and businessman who developed many important devices. The Wizard of Menlo Park is one of the first inventors to apply the principles of mass production in the process of discovery.

He was born in Milan, Ohio, United States on February 11, 1847. In his childhood in the United States, Edison always scored poorly in school. Therefore, his mother taught him from school and at home. At home with small Edison freely to read scientific books mature and begin to conduct various scientific experiments alone. At the age of 12 he began working as a newspaper seller, fruit and sweets on the train. Then he became a telegraph operator, he moved from one city to another. In New York he was asked to become head of the telegraph machine that matters. The machines that send business news to all the leading companies in New York.

In 1870 he found a better telegraph machine. The machines can print the messages on a long paper tape. The money generated from its discovery was enough to establish his own company. In 1874 he moved to Menlo Park, New Jersey. There he made ??a major scientific workshop and the first in the world. After that he did a lot of important discoveries. In 1877 he discovered gramophone. In 1879 he managed to find the electric light and then he also found a projector for small films. In 1882 he installed electric lights in the streets and houses as far as one kilometer in the city of New York. This is the first time in the world of electric lights in use on the streets. In 1890, he founded the General Electric Company.

Thomas Edison was a young age Edison is seen as one of the most prolific creators of his time, holding a record 1,093 patents in his name. He also helps a lot in the field of defense the United States government. Some of his research include: detection of the aircraft, destroying the periscope with machine guns, submarine detection, stop the torpedo with nets, increased the strength in torpedo, ship camouflage, and many more.

In 1928 he received the award in the form of a special medal from the United States Congress. Thomas Alva Edison died at the age of 84, on the anniversary of his discovery of the famous, modern light bulbs.

Bill Gates

Entrepreneur. Born William Henry Gates, III, on October 28, 1955, in Seattle, Washington. Gates began to show an interest in computer programming at the age of 13 at the Lakeside School. He pursued his passion through college. Striking out on his own with his friend and business partner Paul Allen, Gates found himself at the right place at the right time. Through technological innovation, keen business strategy, and aggressive competitive tactics he built the world's largest software business, Microsoft. In the process he became one of the richest men in the world.
Bill Gates grew up in an upper middle-class family with two sisters: Kristianne, who is older, and Libby, who is younger. Their father, William H. Gates, Sr., was a promising, if somewhat shy, law student when he met his future wife, Mary Maxwell. She was an athletic, outgoing student at the University of Washington, actively involved in student affairs and leadership. The Gates family atmosphere was warm and close, and all three children were encouraged to be competitive and strive for excellence. Bill showed early signs of competitiveness when he coordinated family athletic games at their summer house on Puget Sound. He also relished in playing board games (Risk was his favorite) and excelled in Monopoly.
Bill had a very close relationship with his mother, Mary, who after a brief career as a teacher devoted her time to helping raise the children and working on civic affairs and with charities. She also served on several corporate boards, among them First Interstate Bank in Seattle (founded by her grandfather), the United Way, and International Business Machines (IBM). She would often take Bill along on her volunteer work in schools and community organizations.
Bill was a voracious reader as a child, spending many hours pouring over reference books such as the encyclopedia. Around the age of 11 or 12, Bill's parents began to have concerns about his behavior. He was doing well in school, but he seemed bored and withdrawn at times. His parents worried he might become a loner. Though they were strong believers in public education, when Bill turned 13 they enrolled him in Seattle's Lakeside School, an exclusive preparatory school. He blossomed in nearly all his subjects, excelling in math and science, but also doing very well in drama and English.
While at Lakeside School, a Seattle computer company offered to provide computer time for the students. The Mother's Club used proceeds from the school's rummage sale to purchase a teletype terminal for students to use. Bill Gates became entranced with what a computer could do and spent much of his free time working on the terminal. He wrote a tic-tac-toe program in BASIC computer language that allowed users to play against the computer.
It was at Lakeside School where Bill met Paul Allen, who was two years his senior. The two became fast friends, bonding on their common enthusiasm over computers, even though they were very different. Allen was more reserved and shy. Bill was feisty and at times combative. They both spent much of their free time together working on programs. Occasionally, they disagreed and would clash over who was right or who should run the computer lab. On one occasion, their argument escalated to the point where Allen banned Gates from the computer lab. On another occasion, Gates and Allen had their school computer privileges revoked for taking advantage of software glitches to obtain free computer time from the company that provided the computers. After their probation, they were allowed back in the computer lab when they offered to debug the program. During this time, Gates developed a payroll program for the computer company the boys hacked into, and a scheduling program for the school.

Alternate-Reality With "Sputnik Projector"

This entertainment companion is sure to get your eyeballs and mind straight into outer space – tout de suite! It’s a projector with a cuteness!You love projectors too.The former USSR launched Sputnik. In celebration of the fabulous designtastic shape of the Sputnik, and due to the meaning of Sputnik: “traveling companion,” The projector look just like an alternate-reality Sputnik I, it’s got a little space center controller!

For All Home Entertaiment Needs "Pearl Media Center PC"

The Pearl Media Center has a touchscreen LED panel 320mm in width, 2.39:1 aspect and 1080p resolution support. The display covers the compact keyboard and it slides and inclines 60 degrees to better view when using as a notebook. Also, in the sides of the LED display there is some multimedia lighting sensors for easy access to music, pictures, movies, TV, volume control, navigation keys to Media Center and other keys like play, pause, stop, forward /backward, REC and On/Off.Under the left Multimedia panel is the Blu-ray drive. Note that it doesn’t works with a tray, it works just, like a car’s DVD Player or Dell Hybrid Studio Drive.





But, the big secret of this multimedia player is in the Pearl Receiver. The receiver works through a wireless connection with the Pearl Mob ile Media Center and connects to home theater and TV, reprod uces the screen and sound coming from the Computer. It works with some classic outputs like HDMI, optical and aux. port for sound, and video component.




The Pearl Media Center is a computer for home entertainment and basic work like office, internet, instant messaging, watching movies, listening to music, seeing pictures and light 3D games. It is powered with Intel’s Atom Processor and Nvidia ION Technology, for multimedia functions.




There is an energy adapter to power the Pearl Receiver. Also, it could be configured to send images and sound to the Mobile Station, so you could watch TV on the computer in any room of the house in the range of the Pe arl Receiver (like 10 meters stable).At last, the two spheres works like support and one works like energy adapter for the mobile station and connecting it in the back of the Pearl MMC.




The computer can works just like a digital picture frame, sound stations and still connect to the Pearl Receiver sending sound/image if the user wants.
A trick that could be used in the Pearl Media Center is the voice recognition to change music and pictures, change chan nel o f TV and pause a movie when the user is busy.

FUTURE COMPUTER TECHNOLOGY:Touchscreen OLED Wrist Computers

OLED is a Flexible Plastic Display technology making use of Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) to produce an emission electroluminescent layer in a film of organic compounds which emit light in response to electric current. It can be used from Television screens, Computer monitors, Mobile phones, Watches to Advertising Billboards. OLEDs are also used in light sources for space illumination and in large-area light-emitting elements.


OLED display functions without a backligh, making it possible to display deep black levels and can be thinner and lighter than Liquid Crystal Display (LCD). The OLED technology is used in commercial applications such as displays for mobile phones and portable digital media players, car radios and digital cameras among others.

OLED Display Technology in Hi-Tech Mobile Phones

OLEDs have been used in most Motorola and Samsung colour cell phones, as well as some HTC, LG and Sony Ericsson models. Nokia has also recently introduced some OLED products including the N85 and the N86 8MP, both of which feature an AMOLED display. OLED technology can also be found in digital media players such as the Creative ZEN V, the iriver clix, the Zune HD and the Sony Walkman X Series. The Google and HTC Nexus One smartphone includes an AMOLED screen, as does HTC's own Desire and Legend phones. However due to supply shortages of the Samsung-produced displays, certain HTC models will use Sony's SLCD displays in the future.

Hewlett Packard Plastic Display Screens for US Military, Commercial in 3 to 5 Years

Hewlett Packard Computer Research and Development Labs, Palo Alto, California has demonstrated last week the New Inventions they believed would be commercialized within Three to Five years. It was a Flexible Plastic Sheet with a 50-micron thick coating that eventually could replace glass computer displays in future.


HP Researchers said the screens would be rolled out to the US military this year 2011, in the form of "Solar Powered Plastic Display Wrist Watch" that could display maps, circuit, diagrams and troop positions for a Soldier. The displays uses technology similar to that of an e-book reader without glass.


A larger radio device would relay maps and diagrams to troops in the field and short-range technology would transmit them from the radio to the watch. The displays are black and white, but eventually will be colour as techniques are perfected. The other candidate use of the Technology are Large plastic screen billboards.


Hewlett Packard have also developed a form of 3D Telecasting called "Immersive 3D" that will telecast live events such as sports and rock concerts in 3D without a need for expensive cameras and projectors.

Sony Nextep OLED Touchscreen Wrist Computers in 2020

Concept Designer and Technologist, Hiromi Kiriki was strongly in believe that within Ten years, Flexible OLED Touchscreens will be common, when he proposed the desgned of "Sony Nextep".


Sony Nextep Computers are the Gadgets and Devices, those are developed to be worn as a bracelet, constructed with flexible OLED touchscreens. Earmarked for the year 2020, features like a holographic projector, with pull-out extra keyboard panels and social networking compatibility, make the concept plausible. This future computer is predict to be released to the market in 2020.

DuPont Cheap Durable 50 Inches OLED TV Display

Science Based Products and Services company, DuPont stated in a press release in May 2010 that they can produce a 50-inch OLED TV in two minutes with a new printing technology. If scaled up in terms of manufacturing, the total cost of OLED TVs produced can be greatly reduced. Dupont also states that OLED TVs made with this less expensive technology can last up to 15 years if left on for a normal eight hour day.

FUTURE HAND PHONE

Back to the era of when the cell phone was introduced in 1983 where the first commercial hand phone which was Motorola DynaTAC 8000x.The introduction of this new gadget was extremely exploded in the science and technology fields. It was in big size and bulky so it was not easy to bring them along together.Illustration 1 shows how was the first generation phone and then when the revolution of hand phone started. From the first generation (1G) long time ago up to fourth generation (4G) there are many new communication companies were developed such as Celcom, Maxis, T-Mobile, Softbank and many more. The production of hand phones are getting bigger since there are lots of producers such Nokia, Samsung, Sony Ericsson and the size become much more smaller also much more functions and applications. Who knows ten years later the hand phone maybe doesn’t look alike what we have seen today as the innovation are continuous. The future hand phone also may cover many functions from other gadget that can be used in one hand phone only.

DESCRIPTIVE OF FUTURE PHONE

Simple-most of this concept phone hold on this main purpose- simple, however, it does not mean this kind of phone is lack in term of function. This concept phone is perfect in all prospects. So, in can be concluded that this kind of phone is simple but perfect. We can observe just from its physical concept, it truly told us that what we had said before is true.

Light-as we can see before, our great-grandfather used that kind of bulky phone. It such wasting way of use because it requires a lot of energy. As a result we might easily exhausted and tire. At the same time, we might be ashamed as we have to hold this big bulky phone all over the street while we get call from somebody. Huh! I can stand this way all my life time! I must create and develop one new light and small phone. That might be the dialog of Motorola-the first developer that introduce the new small and simple phone-Motorola MicroTAX 9800X.

Portable-as we flashback to back era when the phone was first introduced to the public, we can see that there was a huge giant hand phone which size almost like our arm. Whenever we are going some where and we need to bring that ‘giant’ how do you think we are carrying that? Its weird right and we can only bring it in our car not our pocket. Yes from the time being the size of the phone become smaller and more portable. But how do you think in the future? The phone will be more portable as we can say we might not realize we are bringing it together with us. Maybe one day you will get shock when you see the phone just look alike with the lipstick.

Eco friendly- as the time changes the resources used to produce parts of the phone are going to decrease and also will cause pollutions. Most of the unused parts cannot be recycled so this will cause pollution. So the future phone is made from suitable and recycle resources to produce it components.This what is going to be in the future as when the phone are not being used anymore it can be recycled and why it is call eco friendly phone.
