Abstract
Explore some of the exciting technologies that just a few decades ago, could only be found in the pages of science fiction stories, but are now very much part of our everyday lives. As the pace of technological change increases, which of today’s blue-sky inventions will find their way into common use?
You’ll hear about some of the newest developments and ways of thinking that are putting digital technologies at the centre of our lives; including creating and controlling avatars in a virtual world, technology as an equaliser, responsible AI for social empowerment, bringing about a hyper digital and contactless world, and how new technologies are changing the entertainment industry.
This event is hosted by IET South Asia as part of the IET@150 celebrations. In our anniversary year, we have been looking at engineering difference makers and how they are changing the world – you will certainly hear from some of them here!
