Top 10 breakthrough technologies in 2011

Invisibility cloak, the lightest material in the world, mind reading equipment . are breakthrough technological achievements in 2011.

1. DARPA launched a spacecraft program within 100 years

Spacecraft technology is still far below what Star Trek has to offer, but it can change with the project that started in the year outside by the leading research agency of the US military, DARPA and NASA. Now scientists have to think about how to maintain the ability to implement this idea, possibly creating secondary technologies throughout the process.

2. New adhesive tape can help us become spiderman

There is no need to be bitten by radioactive spiders or robots to be able to climb walls, new sticky tape inspired by insects can help us to hang from the ceiling, can be reused many times and can be used in wet conditions.

3. Invisibility cloak

The work of invisibility cloak is gradually gaining certain steps. One of the latest tricks involves making materials with small holes that change the speed of light. That's enough to hide an object the size of a blood cell from normal light and can do more if resized.

4. Water purification materials and electricity generation simultaneously

Aluminum will someday be a source of water to purify water and generate electricity because Purdue University Engineers have created aluminum alloy - a more promising source of energy than coal if it can refine the process. . The first job will be to help remote villages without electricity.

5. US military launches supersonic weapon flight

Successful testing of the US military opened up a future of new weapons with the speed of flying over the ocean five times faster than the speed of sound, which could attack to capture anywhere on Earth within an hour. The test flight also opened the opportunity to develop high-speed passenger aircraft.

6. Thinking device

Working on a keyboard or touch screen will disappear if scientists create thought-reading technology that turns thoughts into digital forms. Determine brain activities related to groups of words. Next, scientists will try to distinguish between brain signals between objects.

7. The lightest material in the world

It is a breakthrough in material structure with 99.99% mesh open space, which helps create a new generation of materials with extraordinary power but extremely light.

8. NASA 3D printing for parts of space station

The space exploration task is still very expensive, even for the smallest robots, now 3D printing opens up a more economical solution, building everything in space from Earth's gravity. If NASA's effort succeeds, astronauts can use 3D printers to create alternative, small satellites.

9. The first biological laser shot cell

Finally, genetic engineering has created a cell that can fire laser beams. These lasers will not be able to help destroy cancer cells early, but researchers expect it to become a microscope replacement tool to study bacteria.

10. Method of learning 'Matrix'

Just stare at the screen and concentrate on learning different skills from playing dumb to polished, it is entirely possible with this hypnosis learning method, even without the awareness of those what is studying
