I personally feel - it will be highly personalize-able products with a human factor/human touch.
Hear me out. I feel bio-tech is the next big thing. 10 years from now.
We all will be so over-whelmed by 'social news' from all these social networking site, we will feel shallow inside - which will arise the need of personalized items - like mood boosters, one hour makeover devices etc. These bio-technological devices will read your body temperature, body vitals, estrogen/testosterone levels, adrenalin levels, blood sugar level etc - to find and suggest ways to either boost your mood or to calm you down.
Another high use of this could be for not-so-severe case of sleep apnea patients. 1-2 hours before going to bed, there will be a device which will suggest you steps to take for a better night sleep, etc.
In summary, technology will move away from social networking to personalized items; and bio-tech will have a huge role to play in it.
Only time will tell. Countdown begins...
Can this be a built-in chip in smart phones? Something like this was a project worked on by one of the teams in my "Innovation and entrepreneurship class."
