Detailed Description

Technology and innovation have always been influenced by science fiction. Science fiction shows have frequently presented us with new ideas that have later become realities, from means of communication to modes of transportation. This project aims to explore the various futuristic gadgets and human-machine interfaces (HMIs) that have been portrayed in science fiction shows over the years and examine their potential for real-world applications. By analysing the depictions of these devices and interfaces in popular shows like Black Mirror, Westworld, Altered Carbon, etc., this project seeks to identify the technologies that are likely to be developed in the near future. It will examine how these gadgets and HMIs can be used to improve our daily lives, enhance our communication capabilities, and provide us with more efficient ways to interact with technology. Through this project, we hope to document and inspire new ideas for technology development and explore the ways in which science fiction can influence and shape our future.
