There are many movie gadgets that would enable you to reach geek level expert. I am sure all geeks out there have many gadgets to add to my list, unfortunately we may need to wait a while for these gadgets to be available. Collaborated efforts of many subject matter experts and geeks alike are pushing the boundaries to enable our wildest dreams to come true.

Top 5 Movie Gadgets We Want

 

1. J.A.R.V.I.S – Movie: Iron Man

I can think of a million reasons why this will be an excellent edition to my man-cave. Inspired by Tony Stark’s assistant in Iron Man, Chad Barraford’s DIY digital life assistant listens and talks to him, monitors his apartment and keeps him up-to-date on current events.

2. Personal robots – Movies: I-Robot, Star Wars

The idea of a personal robot washing my car or cleaning the pool is an instant win in my books. The concepts of human robots are nothing new. The 8th Annual ACM/IEEE International Conference on Human Robotic Interaction took place on March 3-6, 2013. HRI is devoted to exploring the theme of Holistic Human-Robot development. Robotic solutions are increasingly applied to real world problems such as our aging society, renewable energy, climate control, emergency response, education and exploration.

3. Squid – Movie: Strange Days

It would be more entertaining to experience the moment for yourself, if your best friend explains to you how he managed to crash his car through the school’s main gate last Friday night.

A recent ground breaking discovery may guide scientists to understand how to “record and replay” memories. A new brain implant tested on rats restored lost memories at the flick of a switch, heralding a possible treatment method for patients with Alzheimer’s disease, stroke or amnesia. Such a “neural prosthesis” could someday be used to facilitate the memory-forming process and help patients remember.

The device can mimic the brain’s own neural signals, thereby serving as a surrogate for a piece of the brain associated with forming memories. If there is sufficient neural activity to trace, the device can restore memories after they have been lost. If it’s used with a normal, functioning hippocampus, the device can even enhance memory.

4. Remotely controlled androids – Movies: Surrogates, Avatar

Imagine the endless possibilities, being able to do things with your life without the risks that normally convince you otherwise…. like skydiving or swimming with a great white shark for example. We may have to confirm with the HRI development award winners to understand if this technology will be available in the near future.
