2060s The Future Is Now



For an individual such as myself, the 2060s will include these changes.

Injuries: The mechanism on my leg is a brace. I predict I will not be free of injury, but I do think that the way we treat injuries will be much better. At this age, my body is probably starting to degrade, especially my joints. I recently had a non-invasive operation on my leg where nanobots were inserted into the region around my knee and are tasked with fixing it. The brace is a sort of mother-control, which acts both as a support for me physically, but it also directs the nanobots, remotely. 

Clothes: For the most part fashion has not changed too much, but the nature of the material has. Different types of synthetic fabrics are now available, which have different uses. This one in particular has fiber optics built into the sleeve which can display different media, and be interactive as well. On my shoulders, the fabric is photovoltaic, which means it harnesses energy from the sun, or any small amount of UV light, powering the "device" in the article of clothing.

Mask: Air quality is not good above ground, and air filters below ground are costly, and not always offered consistently. This individual air filter is not cheap either, but it is much more affordable and reliable.
