Inventions that can transform our lives!
Our modern world of science and technology is coming up with some mind boggling work that can transform our lives in the next 10-20 years. Here are some of the technology that are either already in use or may become a reality in the future.
1) The invisible cloak: The invisible cloak is getting closer to reality. Scientists at the University of Texas in Austin have demonstrated making a 3D object in free space invisible by using the plasmonic technique.

3) Stem cells to grow organs like heart, lungs & liver: A lot of work is being done to grow organs using stem cells. Read about some of this work by clicking on the following link – http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2012/02/120213185441.htm
4) Waterproof clothing: Imagine wearing clothes that do not get wet in the rain. Ross Nanotechnology Corp. has demonstrated their product ‘NeverWet’ . Read more about it here – http://z6mag.com/science/waterproof-iphone-waterproof-clothing-neverwet-makes-it-real-163096.html
5) Robotics: Great progress has been achieved in the field of robotics. The latest robots can mimic human behaviour. To find out more click on this link – http://physicsinventions.com/index.php/human-like-robots-to-mimic-human-facial-expressions/
6) Dynamic Architecture: Have you seen buildings in motion that can change their shape. The rotating tower – a revolutionary architecture by Dr. David Fischer allows the building to adjust to the sun, wind, weather and views by rotating each floor separately.
