Disappearing Act is the name of the article that I have chosen.
ReplyDeleteWhat interested you about your choice of technology?
I really adore this type of technology which allows you to be invisible. It’s really interesting when you make something disappear.
Do you think we will have to wait long to see this technology in the real world?
I don’t think so. Because the scientists are working on this kind of technology and they had invited some invisible cloaks.
Do you think there may be problems with this technology? What problems? Why?
Nothing is perfect. This kind of technology could be used for non peaceful purposes such as spying and harming the people because it makes you disappeared no one can see you.
Hi,
ReplyDeleteToday I’m going to take about one interesting article which is “Breath Underwater”. This article interests me because people may dive under water without carrying an oxygen calendar on their back because this dive is working by absorbing the oxygen from the sea water just like the gill of a fish. However I don’t think that we will see this device soon because they face a problem with the amount of oxygen that this invention can take from the sea water also the martial because the simple diffusion gills produce dangerously low level of Oxygen.
I hope that this post is interest you
And I wish you nice week end

Hi, I am Omar
ReplyDeleteThe most interesting article for me is article number 6 which is about Jet Packs.
Jet pack is a device that usually worn on the back. It produces some gases to allow the user to fly, so it is a flying machine. I feel that jet pack is a real device or machine and it will not take time to be seen in the real world, because every day there is development in the technology. I think there are no any problems to this invention of technology. It will be very useful for people to use because it helps us to go everywhere very fast. For me, I often go to my work very late because of traffic, so the jet pack will help me to arrive at the time. It may cause some air pollution because it produces some hazardous gases.
I hope you enjoy my post and good luck.
Thanks a lot for reading.
Ahmed Khalfan,
ReplyDeleteI choose "you power"
it seems that the technology will go forward for our seeks and for goodness of using it.whatever,
it will take more than what i think.however,in this case only one problem we will face; and the problem is how can they create it. as we see there are fossil fuel power and alternative energy, but the source comes from our body to create electrical energy it's quite difficult for me to understand but i'm sure that one day they will do it .
Jet Packs is good articles and interested because it talkes about the important machine and new invention in this century. Also I choose this articles because it is new topic and technology for me and I like and focus for flynig and planes. Also this machine was use it before in USA but i think it will be more development after few years.In my opinion there are many problems for this kind of technology for example about the safety and i think it was complicated when you use it.
ReplyDeleteTo start with, I am interested in the article that talks about breathing underwater under the name of “breathe under water”. The thing that interested me about this article that it would be amazing to breathe under the water which that will let us to discover new things under the water, like new species, new lands that the sea came over it and made it vanished and other scientific things. About the second question I think yes we will have to wait for a long time to see this technology in the real world. I think there may be problems with this technology and the problems are, will it let the diver to dive easily under the water and does it bear the pressure under the water, because if this device didn’t overcome these problems it won’t be useful.
ReplyDeleteI liked the camouflage invention it’s mentioned under the title “Disappearing act”. I found this invention really interesting because it needs a high amount of technology which allows a moving body to disappear, scientists are willing to create a cloak that possess this ability. We will not wait long for this cloak to be created because this cloak has already been invented in 2006 by students from California and was upgraded by another group of students in Hong Kong University, China. In my point of view, I think this cloak will have some side effects on the human bodies in the normal status.
ReplyDeletebatter came late than never..
ReplyDeletethe article I red was the hands free healing .. and one day I'll be an old man and for sure I'll experiance such diseases which can be cured by such device.
I won't expect it soon but I hope it would be in use during the next 20 years unlike the Enter Net we heard of it 30 years after it have been discovered
nothing prefect in this world... even the medicines we use right now have side effects so I guess we could live with the problems of this technology same as to the medicines.
Hi, I was interested to the “Breath underwater” article because I love sea and I think the babble will help the divers with diving easily without carrying heave calendars of oxygen on their back. Also, it will make them flow easily. Of course we will wait for a long time until we see this device because it has many problems that is not solved. The problem is the amount of oxygen, it produce dangerously low level of oxyg
ReplyDeleteI have chosen an article that name Jet Packs.
ReplyDelete• What interested you about your choice of technology?
I always like new technology that is really strange like jet packs. It is also challenge the body mass and the gravity .
• Do you think we will have to wait long to see this technology in the real world?
no I don't think so, because there are some kinds of it like rocket belt
• Do you think there may be problems with this technology? What problems? Why?
yes there are some problem. Trouble can carry only enough propellent for bout 30 second of flight. So it can small amount of fuel to work.
• I think it is machine only for enjoy not for daylily uses, because its fuel is more expensive than cars fuel and also it not available like oil.
hi sir,
ReplyDeletei have chosen a nice aritcal it's name Jet packs
1) What interested you about your choice of technology?
first thing i interested on this technologu because i love flying and travel bu plain, so i think this technology will make a change in this life after made it .
2) Do you think we will have to wait long to see this technology in the real world?
really i dont think that i will wait a long time, maybe there are many inventor workin this tipe of technology also there is a rocke belt (( saif said )).
3) Do you think there may be problems with this technology? What problems? Why?
yes it will have many problems, because no new invention with out problems, also the problems and mistake help the inventor to learn and repear the mistake.
To begin with, I’m interesting in an article which talks about anyone can fly from his home to anywhere with a pack. The topic of this article is “jet packs”. The reason of why I choose this article that there will not be more crowed in the street and you can reach any place you want in a few minute. I have read about this article in 2006 and they was make one and it’s perfectly work and the man how was use it he can fly 10 min in the sky but, the problem is its need a big amount of nitrogen. I think they will develop this jet pack to use patrol instead of nitrogen.
ReplyDeleteI read about the ten articles it may happen in the future that Mr. Richard gave us. It’s very interesting and beautiful. You can use it in many ways and it will make your life easier. I like Spider suit that help you to climb the wall. On the other hand, I don’t like Jet Packs. I like the idea, but imagine, if these machine broke down and in the same time you are in the air, what will happen to you?? However, it’s a nice article to read about.
ReplyDeleteYou have chosen a great subject, entitled breathing under water.
ReplyDeleteI chose this topic because it is interesting and it is one of the dreams of man since time immemorial.
I do not expect to see this Alchtera at the present time because of many problems faced by the scientists.
I believe they will face many problems, but I think that the most important problems is the level of oxygen Siusbandnha under water.

ReplyDeleteDo you think we will have to wait long to see this technology in the real world?
Do you think there may be problems with this technology?
What problems? Why?
The super-vision is the most interesting to me, in future I want to try it ones. It is very useful for army and some other user. I’ve heard it is already invented but I don’t know where exactly. Yes of course, every device has some problem nothing complete in the world. People my use it in the wrong way like see other people without clothes this shame on him, for this reason in doesn’t inter to the shop.
