Monday, January 4th 2016. Knowing where we’re headed and what the new challenges of 2016 are, will keep us from falling behind regarding the benefits and breakthroughs this branch of science offers human beings in different aspects of our life.
There are still those who don’t support technology 100%, for they think it has dehumanized us; but it’ a clear majority who think that it is capable of granting us benefits that make our lives better, more efficient, healthier and even more fun.
At the start of the year there are always new challenges and goals to achieve; technology does not escape from this. In this release, you’ll get to know the new trends, how they adapt to you and how you can get the most from them, reaching that equilibrium between quality of life and technology without ‘breaking your head’
The information was offered in the latest issue of the yearly report by “Ericsson Consumer Lab” as expert and spokesman in technological trends and research of the highest caliber, asserting that the year 2016 will be defined by artificial intelligence and virtual reality from your phone. Incredible, right?
Living in a connected world: More and more people perform hundreds of virtual actions through their smartphones and this trend will continue to rise in 2016, since the time and even the money that can be saved with a single click are thoroughly known.
Everything on video: The number of hours and exposure Young people dedicate to looking, processing and receiving information in video format is on the rise. Which is why Youtube, prepare yourself for a busy year!
Artificial Intelligence: This year will say goodbye to the phone screen, for artificial intelligence will take over this era. The interaction with objects and virtual reality technology for mundane activities like sports or feeding will represent one of the biggest technological challenges yet.
More intelligent homes and bodies: What does this mean? In 2016, the number of homes with intelligent building systems that diagnose failures, gas leaks, water leaks or any electrical interference or problem will rise. What a great way to protect your investment right? But what would you think if, at the same time, intelligent bodies thrived? Meaning: The use of internal sensors within your organism that will allow you to know your health status and to keep track of your general perceptions.
Finally, two more challenges: Reaching complete Cybersafety, meaning; guaranteeing Internet and app users more freedom to perform their daily activities; grant them higher security in their processes and the use of their personal and confidential information. The power of the Internet, understanding it’s grasp in our lives, without underestimating it; learning to cohabit with it, turning it into an ally instead of an enemy. This last one is everybody’s challenge.
