- Passive, energy-neutral cooling by converting infrared radiation into radiation that we don't feel as heat (like radio waves)
- Passive heating by turning radiation we don't feel as heat into infrared radiation
- Extremely efficient lighting by basically broadcasting photons from the nantennas
- Passive heating or cooling within clothing
- Electricitiy production in clothing by harnessing our bodies' radiation
Technology is advancing at an exponential rate often called the "Law of Accelerating Returns." If futurist predictions prove correct, we'll have advanced molecular manufacturing by around 2025, and possibly the replacement of humanity by vastly advanced machines a decade or two later.
This is a chronicle of our journey to that future, one advancing technology article at a time. I post the more significant and interesting articles as I come across them.
