Sci-Fi 1.0

"Star Trek" Pioneers in predicting the future!

Star trek is one of the most famous television shows in history. The interesting part is that most of the technology foreseen and captured in this Sci-fiction series came true in the 21st century. The technologies shown through this TV series suggests, how much the world is changed since the Original Star trek series in 1965. For an instant, think about the futuristic creativity of the people who produced Star Trek back then. Wasn't this the reason for all this technology became developed? In this article, i will be able to show the best 8 technologies which came true after telecasting Star trek. 

                                                                   Communicators.

Cell phones were not invented until 1975. But Star Trek showed us the communications which is way more similar to cell phones. These pins were used as communication devices in star trek. These communication pins were pined to each crew member's chest when they were joined to the star fleet.There's also communication devices which can link people to the same network inside a designated area like an office or building by using the browsers over a Wireless LAN. This technology of using Browsers and Wifi is unbelievably futuristic in 1960's. 

                                                          
Hypospray

Hypospray is a form of hypodermic injection of medication. A hypospray injection is forced under the skin (a subcutaneous injection) with high air pressure. The air pressure shoots the liquid vaccine deep enough into the skin that no needle is required. The real-world application is known as a jet injector. Jet injecting is safer (no needles to pass along infectious disease) and faster in administering vaccines. Similar in appearance to an automotive paint gun, jet injection systems can use a larger container for the vaccine, thus allowing medical personnel to inoculate more people quicker. This technology is Used in star trek may have a pretty good  influence in development of the Jet Injector

Tractor Beam 

Optical tweezers are as close as you're going to get to a legitimate tractor beam on current-day Earth. Scientists have harnessed small lasers into beams capable of manipulating molecules and moving them with precision. Optical tweezers use a focused laser to trap and suspend microscopic particles in an optical trap. Scientists can use optical tweezers to trap and remove bacteria and sort cells. Optical tweezers are used primarily in studying the physical properties of DNA. While the beams used in optical tweezers aren't strong enough to dock the space shuttle to the International Space Station, it's a start in that direction. Yes. it doesn't shoot enemies or tele-port stuff like tractor beam. But I'm pretty sure that this technology is almost on the way to this world.

PADDs.

 It's hard to deny that the handheld tablets we watched Picard and Riker carry around have become analogous to our own iPads and other devices. We might even have taken it further. "With hundreds of thousands of apps, from drawing to databases to communications, the tablet is actually ahead of what we envisioned in Trek," Latrell suggests. This technology of touchpads emmerged long after the discovery of computers by steve Jobs. But look at the technology they dreamed of having.

 In-Ear Comms.

Oh, Uhura. Nobody thought you were bonkers when you started conversations with the voices in your head. That's because your in-ear communications device was a huge silver thing that everyone could see. Nowadays, we've got inconspicuous Bluetooths and similar devices. normally these days we use bluetooth ear pieces to listen to the phone when ever we want. 

                                                                                   Voice and Video interface

In Star Trek IV and tried to talk to the people face to face. The 20th-century engineers around him wore their reactions on their sleeves. No more would our original engineer get such treatment, thanks to Siri and her cousins — common in everything from your computer to your car. Not only that but also Skype and facetime. This communication technology was way beyond their time in 1965. 

Transparent Aluminium

Transparent Aluminum. Here's another Star Trek IV related innovation. Scientists recently unveiled an aluminum-based ceramic that's not only transparent, it'll stop a .50 caliber round. Go ahead and make a humpback-whale aquarium out of that!

Replicators

3-D printing is what the star trek people call replicators. You can order designs in plastics, metals or ceramics. This only prints in plastic at the moment but future machines may print in just about anything. Some people are even experimenting with 3-D printers for food or replacement body parts.
