IBM published NEXT Five in Five - a list of five most promising technologies for the next five years

IBM corporation has published its next annual forecast of the development directions of the technological industry, capable of completely changing the lives of people on the planet over the next 5 years, how they work and how they rest, reportsCNews.ru . The list of the company is called Next Five in Five .

The previous IBM forecasts, the publication notes, although they did not come true one hundred percent, but in many respects coincided with the development of the technological sphere.

So, in 2007, the company predicted that for 5 years a mobile phone will be simultaneously a bank, a wallet, a transport ticket and an adviser when choosing a goods in stores. Almost all of this today is already offering.

According to the current IBM forecast, over the next five years, mobile devices will become "more personal" and will help a person even more in everyday life. For example, according to scientists, significant changes will occur in the market of navigation and LBS solutions (mobile applications that use information about the current location of the user).

Smartphones will be able to not only lay the optimal route, but also report on the number of free places in the parking lot near the office or store you are going to.

In addition, the first commercial systems will appear that can create a three -dimensional image in space, which can be seen with the naked eye - in the IBM report, this technology is called three -dimensional holographia .

Scientists emphasize that we are not talking about the effect of the depth formed on the plane (and now in 3D-televisors and other devices we are witnesses of this approach), but about really three-dimensional objects, as in science fiction films. Holograms will be removed not only by special stationary projectors, but also by smartphones.

Another revolution, as IBM believes, will occur in the field of portable power supply . The capacity and power of the batteries increases by 7% per year, but the company suggests that in five years the devices will be able to offer 10 times more battery life.

This will happen due to the development of new ways to obtain energy, for example, from movement (tiny dynamomas) or even from air - scientists intend to turn charged particles in the air in the air of mobile electronics.

Experts also expect to see a more responsible attitude to the environment of both organizations and each resident of the planet separately. For example, supercomputers will be increasingly used for heating buildings. Such projects already exist, for example in Switzerland. In turn, the ubiquitous energy sensors of energy consumption will help to make an individual contribution to the protection of nature.

Simple people will be able to increasingly take part in research, simply sharing statistics scientists. Using a large number of devices with built -in sensors, including smartphones, household appliances, cars, and so on, it will be able to transfer the statistics they have accumulated to scientific centers.

As a result, experts will be able to deeperly study the behavior of people and society as a whole and improve it. IBM emphasizes that the transfer of such information will pose any threat to the user, since it will not contain personal data, and the user will choose who should be transferred to.
