What are the most recent technological breakthroughs?
6 replies, posted
What are some most recent technological breakthroughs? What kind of products represent these breakthroughs? I'm asking because I haven't really paid any attention to the technological news for quite a while now.
Well there's two different types. There's technological breakthroughs that happen in a lab somewhere.
Then there's the technological breakthroughs that are available to the general public.
For example. Self parking cars were developed years ago, but they're only really recently being implanted into cars for everyday users.
Which one are you talking about?

Thanks, I will check these sites out.
Most things aren't instantaneous. Electricity, light bulbs, piston engines and the Internet took 10s of years to be popularized. But there have been many medical breakthroughs lately, up for human testing now. Diabetes, cancer, HIV, Ebola... you name it.
Also, testing on carbon nanotubes. Possibly the next material to initiate a "steel revolution", or a material as dangerous as asbestos. Time will tell.
Quantum computing has had strides forward, and much within quantum mechanics. Teleporting individual photons through entanglement has been seeing more successful results lately.
We're also on an analytical stage when it comes to CERN's LHC, which means we'll soon find out of we actually exist in a Higgs-field or not. For science, that's huge.
These are a few, among many amazing things that are being worked on now, some which may strongly affect our personal future.

Oh nevermind then. Just the usual, smaller microchips, better batteries for vehicles and electronics, cars with all sorts of sensors like automatically adjusting nightlights to not blind oncoming drivers, various crash sensors, auto-breaking, auto-parking and schnazzy things like that. Fancy things with computers too. Nothing specific I can think of now that you don't know of already.
