Red Bull Getting Wings
Red Bull was created in 1987 by Dietrich Mateschitz after discovering an Asian energy drink cured his jet lag. Since then, Red Bull has grown tremendously through innovative marketing focused on extreme sports sponsorships and events. Their marketing strategy emphasizes targeting young, active consumers through sponsoring athletes and creating unique competitions around the world. Red Bull has also expanded its product line beyond the original energy drink to include sugar-free and zero-calorie options. Through continued marketing innovation and extreme sports associations, Red Bull has become one of the most recognized brands globally.
TomorrowLand Part 1
Futuristic inventions that already exist are explored, including personal drones for tasks like fishing and search and rescue, a real hoverboard that pro skateboarder Tony Hawk has tested, Tile devices that help locate missing keys via Bluetooth signal, and a virtual laser keyboard that turns any flat surface into a work station. Advances in medicine are also highlighted, such as bionic eyes that have restored sight to over 100 people so far, and how holography is being used in medical imaging applications. Color changing contact lenses are discussed that could alert diabetics to their glucose levels by changing color according to the amount in their tears.
Luciano Floridi - Intelligence from Machines
This document discusses the potential risks and benefits of artificial intelligence. It presents both optimistic and pessimistic views on how AI may develop capabilities that surpass human intelligence. While some arguments suggest this could happen gradually over centuries, others note that exponential growth could lead to a sudden surge in machine capabilities. The document urges those developing AI to do so carefully and ensure its safe and responsible development to benefit humanity.

Second Life Workshop
Second Life is a virtual world where users create avatars to interact socially and participate in activities. It has over 7 million registered users. Various brands have hosted events, sold products, and tested designs and marketing strategies within Second Life to engage customers. Examples include Sun Microsystems holding a press conference, American Apparel launching a virtual store, and Lego hosting robot-building events. Educational institutions like Dartmouth College also have a presence in Second Life for activities like emergency response exercises.
Future technology ideas about to change our world.docx
The future is coming, and sooner than you think. These emerging technologies will change the way we live, how we look after our bodies and help us avert a climate disaster.
Technology moves at a rapid pace these days. It can sometimes feel like every single day there is a new technology that is going to revolutionise the future. But with so many massive technological upgrades happening all the time, it is easy to lose track of the amazing ways the world is progressing.
Sometimes new future technologies can offer amazing development, with the possibility of changing the future… while also being incredibly creepy.
This is one way to describe the idea of necrobotics which, as the name suggests, involves turning dead things into robots. While this sounds like a plot to a creepy horror film, this is a technology being explored at Rice University.
A team of researchers turned a dead spider into a robot-like gripper, given the ability to pick up other objects. To achieve this, they take a spider and inject it with air. This works because spiders use hydraulics to force their version of blood (haemolymph) into their limbs, making them extend.
Right now this concept is in its infant stages, but it could mean a future where dead animals are used to further science… it all feels very Frankeinstein-like!
Not every technology bettering our future has to be complicated, some are simple, yet extremely effective.
One of these kind of technologies has come from some Finnish engineers who have found a way to turn sand into a giant battery.
These engineers piled 100 tons of sand into a 4 x 7 metre steel container. All of this sand was then heated up using wind and solar energy.
This heat can then be distributed by a local energy company to provide warmth to buildings in nearby areas. Energy can be stored this way for long periods of time.
All of this occurs through a concept known as resistive heating. This is where a material is heated by the friction of electrical currents.
Sand and any other non-super conductor are warmed by the electricity passing through them generated heat than can be used for energy.
Exo-skeletons
Exo-skeletons have existed for years, both in popular science fiction and real life. But as the years have gone on, the technology has rapidly become more impressive.
Most notably in recent years, we have seen the technology now become more readily available for the young. The Atlas 2030 is described as the most advanced mobile medical exoskeleton designed specifically for children.
While it is not commercially available yet, this technology could aid children in the future, offering a pediatric lower-body medical exoskeleton. This could help children with severe neuromuscular diseases, cerebral palsy or spina bifida walk.
Launching satellites into space
Who would have thought the best way to get satellites into space was with a makeshift catapult! Okay, it is a lot smarter than a catapult but the technology exists in a similar way.
Futuristic Technology
The document discusses several emerging technologies including driverless cars that use sensors and lasers for navigation, all-rubber tires that eliminate flats, spaceships that could transport humans to Mars, cars powered by water extraction of energy from hydrogen, and wheelchairs controlled by brainwaves. It suggests that technology is constantly improving and may one day enable living in space and transportation without active driving through advanced automation.

Adjectives for inventions
This document describes several inventions, including an oxygen-making backpack, a luxury Russian car called the Russo-Baltique Impression with a powerful engine, an upside-down ketchup bottle that dispenses ketchup without shaking, a self-twirling spaghetti fork, a proposed early touchscreen MP3 player called the iTouch, an open-source 3D printer kit called Fab@Home, a device that allows listening to an iPod through a car's tape player, early laptop computers, an alarm clock that wakes one up with the smell of cooking bacon, and an automatic pet feeder with a voice recording to call pets for meals.
A history of robots
The document provides a history of robots from ancient visions to modern achievements. It discusses early concepts and designs from Greek philosophers and inventors. The first modern robots were industrial machines in the 1960s that performed repetitive, dangerous tasks. Today's robots are more advanced and can have sensors to make decisions to complete complex tasks like packaging or military rescue operations. The document traces the progression of robot technology from simple machines to modern humanoid designs that mimic human abilities.
