50 Technologies to shape the future

An absolutely fascinating read, this report from Innovate UK sets out technologies which might be expected to disrupt, innovate, and improve our lives within the next 15-20 years. None are absolutely new, and some date back many years - I remember reading the original Adleman paper on molecular computing back in the 1990s; and don't even ask me to remember how many science fiction books I've seen some of these concepts in - but all have great potential. The full report presents an optimistic view of the near future. 

A real-life invisibility cloak and worm-like robotics for disaster recovery are just some of the 50 emerging technologies that could shape our future.
