Dreams of many innovators have turned the reality of science fiction films on the development of digital technology

The science fiction films were still a source of inspiration for many innovators, and we have discussed in the first part - from a previous article - some of these films that drew the features of inventions for new generations of inventors, and now in the second part we will look at the rest of the films that have become evidence of generations of developers:

"Star Trek" .. The 1993 proportional episode

The first part of the "Descent" on TV in 1993, in the "Next Generation" series.This part revolves around 2369 AD.

In this part, we see the Robot Operations Head Data sitting with Isaac Newton, Albert Einstein and Stephen Hawking behind a round table playing poker and tolerance in a special Holgramatic room called "Holudic" on the space ship that is sailing in the depths of the universe.

Virtual reality technologies - which enable you to enter into games and virtual places - have evolved greatly during the past decade, and their use requires wearing virtual reality glasses.

As for the augmented reality - which adds information, shapes or objects to the actual reality we see - its advanced 3D uses require wearing smart reality glasses.

While modern games that mix virtual reality with Holgram (three -dimensional);It takes place in private rooms, and its operators called it "Holudic" with the aim of linking it to the series "Stars Journey" although they differ from it, as it requires wearing special glasses as well, while the "Holudic" room in "The Stars Journey" does not need to wear glasses,Rather, three -dimensional stereoscopic characters are dropped using Hologram's projection devices, which is currently available in the case of direct transmission of living characters.

As for historical characters, it is also available for specific cases as it was done with the late singers Michael Jackson and Elvis Presley, but building historical characters and simulating their actual behavior and talking to them smoothly is still under development and may require another decade to achieve it.

The minority report .. 2002 production

This film is one of the most inspired science fiction films for technology companies. It included many future technologies that experts later have been able to develop a section, while work is still ongoing to develop another section.

حولت أحلام العديد من المبتكرين لواقع.. تأثير أفلام الخيال العلمي على تطور التكنولوجيا الرقمية

Among these technologies are detailed ads to meet the needs of each person separately, the 3D video, the electronic newspaper whose contents are automatically renewed, wiping the iris from a distance, controlling programs and games through gesture, spider robot, and jacket that enables humans to fly.

Many countries have become using the iris scanning technology at the border crossings to get to know the person, including Arab countries, but your eye must almost attach the camera in order to obtain the desired result.

In the movie, the identification takes place when you are half a meter or more of the camera and in the case of movement.

Since we are witnessing a daily improvement in the performance of cameras and computers, we can expect that we will reach this level soon.

As for the technology of identifying gestures - that is, controlling smart TV or computer by waving hands used by the head of the pre -anticipation unit for crimes "Tom Cruise" in the film - it has been available for several years.

Sony has started developing this type of technology before the film was shown, but its copy that works on "PlayStation 2) - which is called" iToy " - was launched in 2003, and is considered one of the first devices thatIt can be controlled by gestures.

As for the idea of pre-anticipation of crimes, it appeared in the film through the fortune-tellests, not in a scientific way, but a new documentary-shown at the "Toronto" documentary festival 2017 in the name of "Pre-CRIME"-showed that this idea approachedFrom becoming realistic in many countries of the world, through the Police Department's alliance with private companies to use public data and personal information, and smart prediction algorithms to expect crimes likely to happen, and to put a list of the names of people and places that may have to do with them.

"Transcendation" .. Production 2014

Can human brain data and system be downloaded to the computer?This is what the movie "Transndens" is about;Where the operating system and brain data of a genius world is loaded by Dr. Will Castar (which plays Johnny Depp) to a super intelligent computer and then posted it on the Internet, allowing it to virtual life and leads to its growing capabilities very quickly, and reaching eternal life.

This idea may seem crazy and fictional, but Russian billionaire businessman Dmitry Eitskov, 41, seeks to eternity by turning it into reality, that is, by publishing all his brain data on a giant computer by 2045.

Itskov was 100% sure of his success, and tens of millions of countries invested to achieve this goal."Some scholars call that process by transferring the mind to the computer, but I prefer to name it."

On the other hand, on the first of October 2013, the Swiss Applied Arts School for Simulating the Simulation of the Human Mind started largely funded by the European Union.

This project aims to build a system similar to the brain structure, the information it contains and its activity on computers.This project extends for 10 years;Where its results will appear in 2023, and if success will be successful, a person will bring the concept of digital immortality.

"Runaway" .. Production 1984

Tom Silic plays the role of police officer Jack Ramsey, who is in charge of tracking dangerous robots.And when one of the fleeing robots enters a house inside a child;The officer sends a "drone" camera that is controlled remotely inside the house.

This film, in addition to drones, also predicts the spread of public and home services robots, video messages, social media, the Internet, and computers that are treated with sound, identifying people via the retina, tablet computers, and wireless headphones.

Science fiction films are many, and they are interesting on the one hand and inspiring on the other hand.This is what Steve Wozniak - the American businessman who participated in the founding of the "Apple" company - says that "a lot of science fiction begins as a dream in your head accompanying you wherever you go ... and then technology experts turn it into a reality."
