The presentation shows an envisioned city of the future

1. How do you envision the City of
the future?

2. Introduction
The city of the future is
more advanced and
developed compared to
the current cities.
With the advancement
in technology, more
changes will be
witnessed in the city’s
transport, banking,
shopping and
telecommunication
systems among others
 .

3. Health Systems
The medical systems will shift to robotic
diagnosis which will lower the chances of
deaths resultant from human error .
Human errors leads to misdiagnosis of
ailments that normally result to wrong
prescription and even death of patients.
Hospitals in this city will use one-stop
diagnosis. This will be enhanced by the
ongoing research in developing a test kit
that can diagnose multiple diseases at a
time.
This development will increase efficiency in
the treatment of diseases and collection of
surveillance data of different diseases in a
certain locality. It will also be easy to study
the patterns of disease in the city and to
issue health reports about the health
situation in the city more frequently.

4. Modern Technology
The city’s cars will be
self-driven. This
envisioned was
pioneered as Google and
Tesla began working on
a vehicle model that will
move without a driver.
This kind of vehicles will
reduce the number of
road carnages which
have consistently been
contributed by human
error.
The opening of new
subways will be done so
as to have bigger
transport couriers that
can help reduce
congestion at metro and
train stations.

5. Effects of Technology
The social life will be
less private as
technology will have a
way of locating
everyone at anytime.
This will have the city’s
security concerns
catered for as tracking
of human movement
will be done and
recorded.
The communication
system will have people
more connected yet very
lonely. This will be
brought about by a
system where machines
feed residents with all
the information at the
comfort of their seats.
City residents wouldn’t
need to meet in joints as
entertainment will be
carried out indoors,
Workout equipment
that lets us practice
from our couches’
instructions will also be
indoors.

6. Effects on
Employment
Improved
technological
systems will worsen
the employment
situation as many
firms will resort to
using robots to
replace human
labour.
Robotics are
considered more
precise, efficient and
accurate in its work
and does not require
rests and offs from
the job.
The robots will be
used by assembling
and production
companies among
others.
The government will
be compelled to
enforce policies that
limit the use of
robots in the labour
market because they
threaten to face out
the human labour.

7. Education System
Schools in the city will soon
shy away from purchasing
textbooks and will have to
create online bookstores
and libraries as most of the
scholarly articles will
either be sold or rented
online.
With the introduction of
modern storage units such
as the cloud, schools will
have their libraries online
and students will shift
from writing in books to
using computers and ipads
to replace textbooks and
notebooks.
Teachers will not be
physically present in class
since they can conduct
lectures from any point, be
it from home.
