    Ah, I had enough of these crazy ideas myself.
    For example, I thought of a 3D printer when I was about 8 years old, I think. But this one would be totally environmentally friendly. It would be powered entirely by sunlight, converting the light into energy, which would be split into three individual streams, getting fed in three "printer guns" that are pointed at a "stage", with each of the printer guns being positioned at a different angle. Then you basically placed an image of what you want printed on a photocopier, scan it in, and the apparatus would convert the 2D image into a 3D file, and then the printer guns would shoot a laser-like energy beam on the stage, where all three beams would hit a single spot, printing the stuff you desire.
    Basically, it would turn light into energy into mass, and if needed, this could work the opposite direction as well, turning things you printed and that broke back into energy that then could be reused.
    Apart from how futuristic that is, considering I was just a kid that heard 3D printing is something that can be done, but had no idea how it worked (and having no clue about electronics), looking back, I'm surprised how "accurate" the young me was on how a 3D printer worked.
    And if anyone is still reading this and wondering, I came up with this because I wanted specific Lego figures, but couldn't afford spending money on the whole Set in which they were included.
    I also "invented" Anti-Gravity wrist-glove-thingies, that looked somewhat like Iron Mans palm-repulsors, with articulated "finger-antennas" to stabilize the Anti-Gravity beam, that should help people by the construction of buildings.
    And a robot that would project a hologram of oneself around it that could be operated remotely. That way, you could send that robot to school, and attend school from home, not missing any lessons.

    It is very possible that the drawings of the sea horses being ridden in the ocean. He could have been trying to draw the Hippocampus. This was from the Greek Mythology and were described as very pretty or beautiful sea horses. I guess the best representation of the Hippocampus would be in the movie, Percy Jackson and the Sea of Monsters. Which is a really great book series and a decent movie.

    I read a chapter in my school which was based on how the future would loook like.
    (The fun they had)
    This chapter was based on how the future school would look like. Children would have to study in their house with a robot as their teacher. They've never seen books and it's a story about two kids who somehow found a book which was very weird to them . As it was not moving as it was supposed to on a screen. And even that book was based on school so they were amazed as how everyone went to a building to study.
    Actually this now became reality. Like in pandemic how students through out the world studied via online classes.

When we got an automatic washing machine in 1987 instead of the awful heavy twin tub my poor mum had to drag out each time to use, my mother and I sat on the kitchen floor with a cuppa and watched the clothes going zipping around inside. I can still remember how happy she was. Some technology is frivolous, some life changing. I miss her ❤️

Portable in the sense that it had a retractable hose that hooked to the kitchen sink, and wheels so you could roll it around lol. She was so excited. She would look for reasons to run it lol. Now, if I bought my wife a dishwasher for Christmas. I'd have to live in the thing. After I had it surgically removed from my hind end that is. How times and technology change people, and attitudes.

    • @gerry5712
      @gerry5712 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Actually, automated instruments including player pianos and band organs were in existence in 1899. The programming was done by holes in paper (typically a roll but sometimes folded sheets in the form of a "book". The control system was pneumatic, where the holes would allow air (or vacuum) to enter a passage which, through proper valves and actuator (typically a bellows) , would perform an action (e.g. strike a key or allow air to an organ pipe).
      In 1910 a self-playing violin with piano accompaniment was developed that was electrically driven, the paper roll allowed electrical contact to be made / or broken actuating solenoids tp perform the various actions.
      So, in a way, the first recorded music was actually digital.
      Also, in 1899 both the telephone and telegraph were in existence (commercial telephone systems were still in their infancy)so electronic communications were known.

      There is a science fiction story that's similar to that. A household robot was programmed to provide diets for each family member (they were all overweight) that would cause them to lose weight. Unfortunately, there was a glitch in its program that, long after the family members had reach their weight-loss goals, caused it to keep providing lower and lower caloric content meals, slowing starving them to death. The robot had also cut off all communication and access to the outside world.

      Pneumatic tubes are actually very old technology and would have been well known to the writer of that 1900 article. At the time they would have been used to transport important documents around office buildings and even between them. However the prediction here was the extension of their use to private dwellings, which of course never happened.

I would wish them to consider us more in programming. As with floor level verses bed level. Distances moving forward or back etc. and to stop with everyone thinking everything needs 360 I can’t see behind me in bed and how often do people really twirl around constantly while sight seeing or playing a simple game. Keep it front focused if want to see behind me I’ll simply take the 5 to 10 minutes to expend the little energy I have twist myself like a pretzel and try not to cry as not to make vision more blurry.

I would explain how this technology works, but that will take too much time. I’ve also heard that the same type of technology can under certain circumstances be used to treat disorders like bipolar and depression. So I predict by the year 2100 that technological implants like this will take the place of medication to treat the neurological components of mental illness. Maybe even before then.

Of course this mindset has largely disapeared now with e the advent of video calling, Zoom, Teams etc but it took a long time.

    Back in the 60s my father had a school project in his home town of Kempten im Allgäu (Allgäu is a region in Bavaria, relatively rural if compared to Munich) in which he and his class mats had to imagine the year 2000. In my father's vision we should have:
    - 3D TV with five TV stations (back in the 60s in Germany (west) there was just two TV stations).
    - Cars powered by Uranium pills we insert like the chips in an autoscooter.
    - A unified democratic and free Europe.
    - A fully developed space programm with some bases on the moon.
    - My father working for a large company and having a smaller penthouse with his family. (In actuall year 2000 my father worked in the Federal Army of Germany as a civilian administrator and we actually had a two story apartment in the house his own father bought right after WW-II in Munich, so, that's not that far off).
    I myself have the feeling that we ...:
    - could have the first Mars bases built by SpaceX.
    - Much better AIs
    - A much better recycling technology helping us to reduce the eccologically footprint in the world.
    - Perhaps some earlier useable volumetric display projections.
    And all such things within the next 100 years
