Emerging Trends in IT

Trends in IT If you’re closely watching emerging trends in technology, it may take around 15-25 years before most of the technologies become part of our daily lives.

Would it be nice if you don’t have to type in keys on the keyboard and just command the computer to do whatever you want it to do, talk to who ever is online without learning a new language, or maybe own mobile devices without having to recharge it the way we do today because it charges wirelessly?

Gartner research has identified some of the technologies that would completely transform our lives such as - wireless power sources for mobile devices, automated speech translation, and computing interfaces that detect human gestures.

These are already in research and testing today and it’s just a matter of time when all will be used like the way we use our mobile phones.

However, there are still a lot of hurdles to overcome before it all becomes a reality.
