Future living: what will the home of tomorrow look like?
What will our homes be like in the future? Growing cities, shrinking living spaces, and climate change are major challenges
Energy efficient and carbon neutral
One of the greatest challenges for homes of the future is our increasing energy consumption, something that cannot be covered by fossil fuels going forward.
The trend to downsizing
Living more efficiently not only means improving energy use and reducing one’s own carbon footprint, but also building to save space. Rooms

Could we have zero deaths on our roads?
Cars that can think for themselves have clear advantages
Human error causes over 90 percent of these collisions. Driverless cars, which
Driverless cars use a mix of GPS, cameras, complex scanners and sensors to detect vehicles, traffic signals, curbs, pedestrians and

Experts say it’s not the technology holding us back, but legal and practical issues such as who is responsible in the case of an accident, urban planning and the security of car computer systems.
