Smart Cities - Building for the Cities of Tomorrow (Documentary, 2015)

Smart Cities — Building for the Cities of Tomorrow (Documentary, 2015)



More people than ever are living in cities, while only 10 percent of the worlds population did so at the start of the 20th century. The number has grown to 50 percent today. By the end of this century, humans will be a predominantly urban species. As our cities grow, so do the challenges. Space is becoming scarce and social tensions, traffic, noise and pollution are all on the rise.
At the same time cities offer many opportunities such as more efficient use of resources, energy and infrastructure. After remaining a relatively small specialty field for decades, sustainable building today hold the technical key for the future.

Gadgets and humans: when did we become inseparable? | The Future is Now

Gadgets and humans: when did we become inseparable? | The Future is Now



The world could be so much better if seen through augmented reality glasses, or navigated with a microchip implant that can start a car or pay for a purchase by simple hand waving. Humans are so in love with their gadgets that in the future, they might choose to become one with them. But cyber-humans also need to be fully prepared to repel cyber-attacks.

What Future Humans, Cities and Bodies Will Look Like | space and astronomy

What Future Humans, Cities and Bodies Will Look Like | space and astronomy



Part 1 looks at geopolitical developments 50 years from now. Climate concerns, energy issues, peace and the race for weapons technology will dominate international headlines. We’ll take a scientific look at these topics and add a close-up examine the future of nanotechnology and solar energy, all of which will provide the basis of the dramatic scenes.
Part 2 concentrates on the future of the human body. The effect of medical progress on the body will dramatically change daily life, but this will be compounded by other technological innovations. “Intelligent” clothing and surroundings will serve to constantly monitor a person’s health and well-being in real time. Micro-chips and sensors will be ubiquitous in all kinds of products and will keep just about everything around us online at all times. Intelligent jackets that monitor important vital signs like respiration and pulse already exist as prototypes. Their data could easily be transmitted via a wireless signal, permitting the wearer to be located immediately in case of an emergency. The elderly, the infirmed and even children could be the first to benefit from this invention.
In our dramatic story, protagonist Alain Dega is seriously injured in an automobile accident – a rarity in his day — and receives immediate medical attention thanks in part to his “intelligent” clothing. With multiple fractures and a hairline crack to his artificial heart, Alain is rushed by air-ambulance to the hospital of the future.
