Future Lens

In this week’s episode of Future Lens Today, we jump right into a couple of stories around Virtual Reality, and how it’s been used for the ever-evolving work and shopping experience as we move further into remote living. How Google is embracing the future and building spaces to thrive around the world, and lastly how science is crafting alternatives to everything, from organs to food.

In this episode of Future Lens, our hosts Gordon Stencell and Mark Pundzius discuss construction breakthroughs. Be prepared to be amazed as they introduce you to new technologies that support designers, architects, and builders to create innovative and more sustainable structures. Each of these “new generation materials” is engineered to last for centuries and not hurt the environment.

In this week’s episode of Future Lens Today, we’re covering some of the news coming out of the video games industry as one of it’s largest players makes moves that may be possibly giving us a glimpse at what the future of work might look like for people around the world.

Additionally, we talk about Virtual Reality Exosuits akin to those described in the Sci-fi novel “Ready Player One”, as well as some robotics and space news out of Nasa and SpaceX that’ll excite the technology and space lovers in all of us.

What is humanity’s impact on the planet and how consciously and inadvertently have we caused the demise of many species? As a response, key organizations are stepping up by developing new strategies for animal conservation and attempting to resurrect species that are already extinct.

In this week’s episode of Future Lens Today, we talk about how scientists are taking the first steps towards creating a real Jurassic Park, the existence and interaction of what Scientists call Time Crystals and all the complex language they use to describe it in detail, as well as some major technical changes to Google’s Youtube and Facebook’s Instagram, as platforms begin to introduce new ways to eat away at our savings accounts.

We are entering a world in which we will need to become better at fighting what we can't see. Learn about the innovations and best practices related to sterilization and disinfection protocols and how the global situation has pushed new technology to the forefront in the fight against viruses and disease transmission.

Immersive entertainment, artificial intelligence, industry milestones, and how the movie industry is innovating in order to bring forward new ways to remain profitable and grow its audience.

In this week’s episode, we talk about some sweet new technology that feels a lot like the world is coming full circle from all the way back in the 1960s, when moonwalking and supersonic jets were state-of-the-art. We also talk about some of the innovations coming out of Compton where a small San Francisco-based startup is testing out new forms of vertical farming with autonomous robotic farmers being trained and tested in warehouses. Additionally, some news coming out of silicon valley as Apple makes headlines while filling for new patents for some next-level advanced materials to be used in its mobile phone suite moving forward.

Hosts Gordon Stencell and Mark Pundzius are joined by Shawn Hopkins the Executive Producer of Future Lens (and Podcast Host of Future Lens Today our exciting new news show) to revisit the highlights from episodes 11 through 20. Amongst others, we’ll discuss water management, “green” burials, contact-free technology, artificial companionship, and how innovation is changing the world that we live in and the work that we do.
