The World Economic Forum defined the TOP-10 of the most promising technologies of 2013

The World Economic Forum determined the top 10 most promising tendencies in the development of technologies, which in 2013 will begin to be realized more and can help ensure sustainable growth in the coming decades.

The OLEV electric car, which receives power using wireless technologies, will be able to receive power from remote sources from the transmitters of electromagnetic fields installed along the road through the floor. New cars are already tested in Seoul (South Korea).

3-D print allows the creation of solid bodies through the reproduction of digital files, which can potentially provoke a revolution in the production economy, if the requested objects can be printed remotely in the house or office.

Another sensational technology is the production of self -healing materials that can correct damage without external human intervention and, accordingly, can extend the life of industrial goods and lead to a reduction in demand for expensive raw materials, as well as increase the safety of materials used in construction or for the production of aircraft parts.

New technologies offer opportunities for a substantial increase in energy efficiency in the desalination of water and wastewater treatment, potentially reducing energy consumption by 50% or more. Methods such as direct osmon can additionally increase efficiency by using low potential heat from the production of thermal energy or renewable heat from solar thermal geothermal plants.

New technologies for the transformation of unwanted carbon, thrown into the air, into useful products, can potentially solve both economic and energy shortcomings of traditional carbon binding strategies. One of the most promising technologies uses biologically modeled photosynthetic bacteria designed to turn CO2 emissions into liquid fuel or chemicals that have a low cost.

Even in developed countries, millions of people suffer from malnutrition due to a lack of nutrients in their diet. Already today, modern genomic methods can at the genetic level determine the genetic need for protein consumption that are important in human nutrition. Large -scale production of dietary proteins based on the use of biotechnology for molecular nutrition can contribute to the development of muscles or the fight against obesity.

The wider use of sensory sensors that allow you to respond faster to external influences can reduce mortality. Examples are sensors that continuously control the body functions, such as heart rate, oxygen in the blood and level
