Healthtech

In these days we are able to do everything online. On the way to work we fill in how much water we had, what our breakfast was and we look up restaurants in the neighbourhood. For example Estimote will bring the data you need in your real world. Imagine you get a message if you are thirsty. Then you can order a drink in a bar at any location on your phone. Now you don’t have to spend time to search a bar and waiting for you order. The estimote beacons and stickers will connect your phone with any location or object. They have small wireless sensors that can understand the object: recognizing their type, temperature and motion. However trough this w attach more values to offline activities. This can be a combination, it is impossible to imagine a world without technology for the last generations. If I forgot my phone at home I will get it even if it means I would come late in at my appointment. In the future i twill be a bigger part of our brains or even technology will be IN our brains. (google glass, google lens).

We are taking online reality a step further with in the health industry.

The healthcare sector is one of the biggest adopters of virtual reality, in particular as a means of training the next generation of medical professionals. This technology enables trainee surgeons to gain valuable experience but in a safe environment. They learn skills and techniques without causing harm to patients and receive constant feedback as they do so.

This acts as a way of building their confidence and helping them to gain experience. Performing a surgical procedure on a virtual patient enables them to try a newly acquired technique or refresh dormant skills. Plus if they make a mistake then it is done without risk to themselves or their ‘patient’.

Maybe in 20 years, we do not need any more doctors, but are robots will be taking over.
