>The researchers developed a self-assembling polymer with a layer-cake structure: rubbery layers, which provide resilience, alternating with glassy layers, which provide strength. They then developed a method for shooting glass beads at the material at high speed by using a laser pulse to rapidly evaporate a layer of material just below its surface.

>Though the beads were tiny — just millionths of a meter in diameter — they were still hundreds of times larger than the layers of the polymer they impacted: big enough to simulate impacts by larger objects, such as bullets, but small enough so the effects of the impacts could be studied in detail using an electron microscope.

That's what everyone said in the late 90s when thinking of the idea of 1GB of RAM. Today we are running 4GB as a standard and moving toward 8GB.

Think of it this way. Within the next decade, you could possibly run such a processor/RAM consuming game such as Skyrim on even the most basic of computers. If a mobile phone can run a dynamic game of the last decade, then imagine what we will do.

Also in the late 90s, streaming video was just an idea. I would have shit my pants if I saw YouTube in 1997 because a 32MB and a Pentium II would just crap itself trying to play the video. What we can expect with cheap components, smaller processors, and faster processing is anything we can't do today.

Navy’s Top Geek Says Laser Arsenal Is Just Two Years Away

http://www.wired.com/dangerroom/2012/10/lasers/

>Never mind looming defense cuts or residual technical challenges. The Navy’s chief futurist is pushing up the anticipated date for when sailors can expect to use laser weapons on the decks of their ships, and raising expectations for robotic submarines.

>“On directed energy” — the term for the Navy’s laser cannons, “I’d say two years,” Rear Adm. Matthew Klunder, the chief of the Office of Naval Research, told Danger Room in a Monday interview. The previous estimate, which came from Klunder’s laser technicians earlier this year, was that it will take four years at the earliest for a laser gun to come aboard.

“We’re well past physics,” Klunder said, echoing a mantra for the Office of Naval >Research’s laser specialists. Now, the questions surrounding a weapon once thought to be purely science fiction sound almost pedestrian. “We’re just going through the integration efforts,” Klunder continued. “Hopefully, that tells you we’re well mature, and we’re ready to put these on naval ships.”

In the next few years, Google Glass-type devices may start to dominate smartphones as the preferred user interface; and then soon after that, contact lens VR devices may start to appear. But what will the A.I. driving such devices be like?

In some cases, I think it will be hidden, doing all the dirty work for us. For example:

1. It will figure out what we like, and make recommendations without our ever having to ask.
2. It will instantly and seamlessly translate from one language to another, with almost perfect accuracy (unlike today's translation systems, which are somewhere between 90 and 98 percent accurate)
3. It will do passive -- and instant -- object recognition of faces, people, animals, buildings, street signs, handwriting on paper, consumer produts, obstructions, cars, trains, etc. Moreover, it will use context to understand the difference between a picture of a person and an actual person.
4. If we have brain-scanning devices, it will read our thoughts like today's speech recognition systems recognize what we say. It goes without saying that it will recognize our voices; though, systems are already almost 100 percent on that task (for me, at least).
5. It will help us to correct grammar, spelling, stylistic and logical errors.
6. It will run our self-driving cars.

Yes please. Smart "google glass" phones is the next evolution of smart phones. In the future, like 2025, today's smart phone will seem primitive, just like how we look at brick phones back in 1999

Not at all. It is more efficient than having to raise and train new generations all the time.

If we achieve immortality, we simply need laws to regulated reproduction in place to control population growth.

Imagine being able to work and gain experience perpetually, you'll either become godly in your field or want to kill yourself.

Dynamic lighting will allow games to rival best-looking films in terms of visual impact

ms-of-visual-impact

>Dynamic lighting is an area where the current generation consoles cannot pull off, and mostly we see pre-baked ones. However, some studios like Crytek have tried to do things like Global Illumination on consoles with Crysis 2, and while the implementation was solid, overall it still didn’t have a major impact.
>Once next-gen consoles offer the ability to pull of dynamic lighting, developers can get more creative and create games that may rival the films. Remember some game developers talking about Avatar, Toy Story graphics? That could be possible.

How to boost lithium battery performance – just add crushed silicon

http://www.gizmag.com/crushed-silicon-lithium-ion-battery/24885/

>They discovered that by crushing the film, the resulting powder had a surface area 50 times that of regular crushed silicon. The result is an anode material that can hold a charge of 1,000 milliamp hours per gram compared to graphite anodes, which store 350 mAh/g – and that's only a third of its theoretical capacity.

In the farther term, a holistic approach to BCIs will enable a broad range of task-oriented and opportunistic applications by leveraging pervasive technologies and advanced analytical approaches to sense and merge critical brain, behavioral, task, and environmental information. Communications and other applications that are envisioned to be broadly impacted by BCIs are highlighted; however, these represent just a small sample of the potential of these technologies.
