After viewing the future museum in class, it was quite interesting to see the many predictions of the past and their presence in today's world. One item that stood out the most was the Lexus Slide. It is a hover board that relies on liquid nitrogen to keep it afloat. Years ago it was predicted that we would have hover boards and now Lexus has made it happen in a way we never expected.
Another pst prediction that is now being put into action is the Nike shoes featured in the Back To The Future film. They light up and the laces tighten by themselves without someone having to tie the shoe. It's amazing how many things started as ideas but have now become reality. However, as great as these things may seem, they have not become financially realistic. New developments take time but I feel that technology will always progress but may never be financially suitable for all people.
The future museum put a new perspective on viewing artifacts. By using QR codes we could simply read a brief description, scan the code, then our phones would lead us to many other videos and links with a wide variety of information about the products. This makes it easier to show a wide scope of information and takes full advantage of the use of technology. I think many museums and exhibits should take on the use of QR codes to allow viewers to see more information than just what they have listed in a description.
