In a future where dramatic climate change and global population explosion threaten to alter the way we live, technology plays a critical role. From the way we commute to the way we communicate, to the way we construct our cities, innovators in science, engineering, and architecture across Asia are engaged in a trillion dollar race.
In Taiwan, innovative car designers rush to mass-produce the cleanest, most efficient personal transport. In Japan, scientists have devised a new form of communication called ultra-realistic communication using holograms and 3D images. In Singapore, robotics researchers work on a humanoid that may replace service staff. And in Korea, engineers want to harness the power of the mind by getting machines to think like humans.
It’s a fierce race to the finishing line, and Asia's scientists are leading the competition. Their vision, encapsulated in this series, will bring us straight into the future.
