1) Prosthetic and artificial limbs will soon function as naturally as biological limbs due to advances in control interfaces. 2) Therapies may be developed to repair or replace damaged organs through regeneration of body tissues. 3) Mind reading devices have been created that can detect thoughts and display letters based on thinking alone, demonstrating the potential for direct brain-computer interfaces.

1. 10INNOVATIONS THAT WOULD CHANGE THE FUTURE WORLDSLOVENIJA

2. PERFECT ARTIFICIAL LIMBSEvery year a number of people lose their hands, arms and legs.Prosthetic users may soon control artificial limbs as naturally as their own.

3. BODY REGENERATIONWe can expect therapies to repair or entirely replace organs in the human body.

4. POCKET INTERNETLeaving aside digital toys, scientists are working on devices which could give us information about almost anything.

5. MIND READING DEVICESBrain scans are used to predict what a person will do. Researchers have built a device that can read your mind. Just think of a letter and it is displayed on a screen.

6. SOLUTION TO HUNGERNew varieties of wheat, maize and rice with greater resistance to temperature changes, drought and insects are constantly being developed. Can we expect meat from labs?

7. ROBOTSWith robots doing all kinds of chores, people canspend more time with their families (or even robots).

8. CLIMATE CONTROLScientists are thinking of introducing particles into the atmosphere that would reflect the sunlight and cool down the planet. Can we slow or stop hurricanes by cooling surface water that fuels them?

9. SUSTAINABLEENERGYHydroelectric, solar, wind and geothermal power are all renewable sources of green energy.

10. REUSABLE WASTERecycling and other technologies whichturn waste into reusable materials successfully reduce the amount of rubbish.

11. AROUND THE WORLD IN 90 MINUTESTo experienceweightlessness in space planes that can land and take off like regular aircraft…soon, very soon.
