Mind Control will be the Technology of Choice in 10 Years-IEEE

IEEE has released global survey results indicating that the human mind will be the technology of choice to control devices used in everyday life in 2025. The results from the survey, which had a sample of more than 3,000 technology enthusiasts, note a decline in the significance of cellphone and mobile devices as the primary means of controlling technology, and highlight autonomous vehicles as the preferred mode of transportation in the future.

“As technology evolves, it becomes more and more integrated with our daily lives and its physical presence shrinks,” said IEEE member Diogo Monica, security lead at Docker. “Consumer technology is advancing beyond the constraints of mobile devices to wearable form-factors, and the next step in this evolution will be the ability to control technology in a hands-free way using brainpower alone. As a growing number of connected devices produce ongoing flows of data, security measures will need to keep pace to protect personal and corporate information as it travels over the IoT network... See more
