[Applause] hi everyone

hi everyone

hi everyone it’s good to be here today um so today

it’s good to be here today um so today

it’s good to be here today um so today I’m gonna be talking to you about the

I’m gonna be talking to you about the

I’m gonna be talking to you about the future I think there’s a lot of

future I think there’s a lot of

future I think there’s a lot of interesting things happening now in

interesting things happening now in

interesting things happening now in science and science has come a long way

science and science has come a long way

science and science has come a long way many of us have gone from using you know

many of us have gone from using you know

many of us have gone from using you know desktop computers to using your tablets

desktop computers to using your tablets

desktop computers to using your tablets to now communicating via Apple watch

to now communicating via Apple watch

to now communicating via Apple watch so things have definitely come a long

so things have definitely come a long

so things have definitely come a long way myself I have been working with many

way myself I have been working with many

way myself I have been working with many friends and collaborators from different

friends and collaborators from different

friends and collaborators from different universities and I’ve been trying to

universities and I’ve been trying to

universities and I’ve been trying to look at how to change the way we teach

look at how to change the way we teach

look at how to change the way we teach and how to change the way we were

and how to change the way we were

and how to change the way we were learning one of the things that I have

learning one of the things that I have

learning one of the things that I have been looking at is trying to use

been looking at is trying to use

been looking at is trying to use Holograms for teaching app teaching and

Holograms for teaching app teaching and

Holograms for teaching app teaching and also for many other applications one of

also for many other applications one of

also for many other applications one of the things that I have been really

the things that I have been really

the things that I have been really fascinated by is is the micro hololens

fascinated by is is the micro hololens

fascinated by is is the micro hololens by Microsoft and I think it’s actually

by Microsoft and I think it’s actually

by Microsoft and I think it’s actually come a long way from the first time it

come a long way from the first time it

come a long way from the first time it was it was developed and it was looked

was it was developed and it was looked

was it was developed and it was looked at currently there have been a lot of

at currently there have been a lot of

at currently there have been a lot of interesting applications that had have

interesting applications that had have

interesting applications that had have been implemented have been proposed to

been implemented have been proposed to

been implemented have been proposed to help with trying to visualize different

help with trying to visualize different

help with trying to visualize different things for engineers it has become very

things for engineers it has become very

things for engineers it has become very useful tool they could actually see

useful tool they could actually see

useful tool they could actually see things and they can actually interact

things and they can actually interact

things and they can actually interact with things using these goggles using

with things using these goggles using

with things using these goggles using using this this type of technology which

using this this type of technology which

using this this type of technology which I think it’s very very interesting I

I think it’s very very interesting I

I think it’s very very interesting I remember being a boy and really looking

remember being a boy and really looking

remember being a boy and really looking at television shows I mean one of the

at television shows I mean one of the

at television shows I mean one of the things I used to I used to like looking

things I used to I used to like looking

things I used to I used to like looking at and watching was this show called The

at and watching was this show called The

at and watching was this show called The Jetsons I don’t know if you guys know

Jetsons I don’t know if you guys know

Jetsons I don’t know if you guys know about this but and in the show I mean

about this but and in the show I mean

about this but and in the show I mean you kind of see all these futuristic

you kind of see all these futuristic

you kind of see all these futuristic things happening and the family the

things happening and the family the

things happening and the family the Jetsons they have a robot her name is

Jetsons they have a robot her name is

Jetsons they have a robot her name is Rosie

Rosie

Rosie and Rosie is part of the the family her

and Rosie is part of the the family her

and Rosie is part of the the family her job is to kind of help the kids and also

job is to kind of help the kids and also

job is to kind of help the kids and also to clean right and also to kind of make

to clean right and also to kind of make

to clean right and also to kind of make sure that everything is everything is

sure that everything is everything is

sure that everything is everything is working everything is functional in in

working everything is functional in in

working everything is functional in in the house that she’s she’s living in now

the house that she’s she’s living in now

the house that she’s she’s living in now what I find it is interesting is that a

what I find it is interesting is that a

what I find it is interesting is that a lot of this recent has been has been

lot of this recent has been has been

lot of this recent has been has been used you can you can kind of interact

used you can you can kind of interact

used you can you can kind of interact with your professor now through through

with your professor now through through

with your professor now through through television screen your professor can

television screen your professor can

television screen your professor can come up and he could interact with you

come up and he could interact with you

come up and he could interact with you he could he could ask your questions you

he could he could ask your questions you

he could he could ask your questions you could also respond to the professor and

could also respond to the professor and

could also respond to the professor and you could ask him any questions you have

you could ask him any questions you have

you could ask him any questions you have so it’s become very much of this kind of

so it’s become very much of this kind of

so it’s become very much of this kind of a world where things are now digital

a world where things are now digital

a world where things are now digital we’re living in this digital world we’re

we’re living in this digital world we’re

we’re living in this digital world we’re kind of interacting with people and and

kind of interacting with people and and

kind of interacting with people and and working with people has come to that

working with people has come to that

working with people has come to that using technology aspect not so long ago

using technology aspect not so long ago

using technology aspect not so long ago actually being in my house I saw my

actually being in my house I saw my

actually being in my house I saw my nephew on his phone and he was trying to

nephew on his phone and he was trying to

nephew on his phone and he was trying to catch a Pikachu so so it seems like

catch a Pikachu so so it seems like

catch a Pikachu so so it seems like technology is a part of us and and we’re

technology is a part of us and and we’re

technology is a part of us and and we’re we’re very much attached to the

we’re very much attached to the

we’re very much attached to the technology which brings me back to kind

technology which brings me back to kind

technology which brings me back to kind of how do you make it how do you bring

of how do you make it how do you bring

of how do you make it how do you bring it into a classroom setting which I

it into a classroom setting which I

it into a classroom setting which I think it’s interesting recently I’ve

think it’s interesting recently I’ve

think it’s interesting recently I’ve been working with trying to develop this

been working with trying to develop this

been working with trying to develop this holographic technology you can call it

holographic technology you can call it

holographic technology you can call it and it’s become very very actually fun

and it’s become very very actually fun

and it’s become very very actually fun to play with it and to use it it’s in

to play with it and to use it it’s in

to play with it and to use it it’s in the development process so they’re kind

the development process so they’re kind

the development process so they’re kind of trying to eliminate the goggles so

of trying to eliminate the goggles so

of trying to eliminate the goggles so that you have this image formed right in

that you have this image formed right in

that you have this image formed right in front of you so who’s to say that I’m

front of you so who’s to say that I’m

front of you so who’s to say that I’m really standing here today speaking to

really standing here today speaking to

really standing here today speaking to you maybe it’s my hologram that’s

you maybe it’s my hologram that’s

you maybe it’s my hologram that’s speaking to you okay but it’s it’s

speaking to you okay but it’s it’s

speaking to you okay but it’s it’s something that creates a lot of

challenges as well and one of the

challenges as well and one of the challenges that it creates is is that

challenges that it creates is is that

challenges that it creates is is that human interaction challenge right

human interaction challenge right

human interaction challenge right because a lot of students want to have

because a lot of students want to have

because a lot of students want to have that interaction with their professor or

that interaction with their professor or

that interaction with their professor or with other students so it does create

with other students so it does create

with other students so it does create kind of different challenges that we

kind of different challenges that we

kind of different challenges that we have to address and we have to look at

have to address and we have to look at

have to address and we have to look at but I think overall this is where we’re

but I think overall this is where we’re

but I think overall this is where we’re going we’re going into this into this

going we’re going into this into this

going we’re going into this into this world into this world where everything

world into this world where everything

world into this world where everything you look at and everything you interact

you look at and everything you interact

you look at and everything you interact with is gonna be in this holographic

with is gonna be in this holographic

with is gonna be in this holographic form and I feel like it becomes even

form and I feel like it becomes even

form and I feel like it becomes even more interesting when you walk into a

more interesting when you walk into a

more interesting when you walk into a classroom and everything you observe is

classroom and everything you observe is

classroom and everything you observe is a hologram to your desks to your

a hologram to your desks to your

a hologram to your desks to your television to your boards everything

television to your boards everything

television to your boards everything that you look at is is a hologram and

that you look at is is a hologram and

that you look at is is a hologram and you don’t have to wear the hololens or

you don’t have to wear the hololens or

you don’t have to wear the hololens or you don’t have to wear technology or you

you don’t have to wear technology or you

you don’t have to wear technology or you don’t have to look at it via a tablet or

don’t have to look at it via a tablet or

don’t have to look at it via a tablet or via a screen but you can be there and

via a screen but you can be there and

via a screen but you can be there and you can interact with it and it could

you can interact with it and it could

you can interact with it and it could interact with you now in education this

interact with you now in education this

interact with you now in education this is actually very interesting to look at

is actually very interesting to look at

is actually very interesting to look at because a lot of schools are trying to

because a lot of schools are trying to

because a lot of schools are trying to have this kind of engagement with

have this kind of engagement with

have this kind of engagement with students they haven’t fully gone to this

students they haven’t fully gone to this

students they haven’t fully gone to this ramp or realm but they have brought in

ramp or realm but they have brought in

ramp or realm but they have brought in robots and robots have interacted with

robots and robots have interacted with

robots and robots have interacted with students and in many countries it’s it’s

students and in many countries it’s it’s

students and in many countries it’s it’s already become something that schools

already become something that schools

already become something that schools have been working on and have been

have been working on and have been

have been working on and have been programming so the robot can also speak

programming so the robot can also speak

programming so the robot can also speak different languages so if you have

different languages so if you have

different languages so if you have someone that doesn’t speak or is not

someone that doesn’t speak or is not

someone that doesn’t speak or is not native English speaker you can have the

native English speaker you can have the

native English speaker you can have the robot speak in Spanish or you can have

robot speak in Spanish or you can have

robot speak in Spanish or you can have the robot speak in another language so

the robot speak in another language so

the robot speak in another language so students feel comfortable and they’re

students feel comfortable and they’re

students feel comfortable and they’re able to

able to

able to understand what the the course

understand what the the course

understand what the the course objectives or the day-to-day objectives

objectives or the day-to-day objectives

objectives or the day-to-day objectives are right so it becomes a tremendous

are right so it becomes a tremendous

are right so it becomes a tremendous asset tremendous value to have something

asset tremendous value to have something

asset tremendous value to have something like that also the other thing which I

like that also the other thing which I

like that also the other thing which I find quite interesting is trying to have

find quite interesting is trying to have

find quite interesting is trying to have it so that students can also kind of

it so that students can also kind of

it so that students can also kind of imagine their parents appearing in front

imagine their parents appearing in front

imagine their parents appearing in front of them let’s say the students are not

of them let’s say the students are not

of them let’s say the students are not doing their assignments right or they’re

doing their assignments right or they’re

doing their assignments right or they’re not doing their homeworks right

not doing their homeworks right

not doing their homeworks right you can have your mother or father

you can have your mother or father

you can have your mother or father appear right in front of you in a

appear right in front of you in a

appear right in front of you in a hologram form tell you you must do your

hologram form tell you you must do your

hologram form tell you you must do your homework okay or you will hear it once

homework okay or you will hear it once

homework okay or you will hear it once you get back home right so this becomes

you get back home right so this becomes

you get back home right so this becomes very very interesting right not just for

very very interesting right not just for

very very interesting right not just for the students but also for those that are

the students but also for those that are

the students but also for those that are involved in the educational setting

involved in the educational setting

involved in the educational setting right this could also work wonders for

right this could also work wonders for

right this could also work wonders for administration administration or for

administration administration or for

administration administration or for other teachers in trying to develop a

other teachers in trying to develop a

other teachers in trying to develop a professional development right where you

professional development right where you

professional development right where you actually have teachers interacting with

actually have teachers interacting with

actually have teachers interacting with a hologram and showing them how to

a hologram and showing them how to

a hologram and showing them how to interact and how to engage with

interact and how to engage with

interact and how to engage with different types of students so I find

different types of students so I find

different types of students so I find all this to be very interesting and not

all this to be very interesting and not

all this to be very interesting and not so long ago I actually was sitting in an

so long ago I actually was sitting in an

so long ago I actually was sitting in an audience listening to a famous physicist

audience listening to a famous physicist

audience listening to a famous physicist by the name of Michio Kaku and what he

by the name of Michio Kaku and what he

by the name of Michio Kaku and what he said which was very interesting is he

said which was very interesting is he

said which was very interesting is he said that inside that birthday card you

said that inside that birthday card you

said that inside that birthday card you have a microchip right and we’ve come so

have a microchip right and we’ve come so

have a microchip right and we’ve come so far that microchip has so much

far that microchip has so much

far that microchip has so much integration in it right or it’s so

integration in it right or it’s so

integration in it right or it’s so sophisticated right that you can do many

sophisticated right that you can do many

sophisticated right that you can do many many things with it right so just

many things with it right so just

many things with it right so just imagine if we’ve come this far in in

imagine if we’ve come this far in in

imagine if we’ve come this far in in trying to create new technology or try

trying to create new technology or try

trying to create new technology or try to make the technology better than what

to make the technology better than what

to make the technology better than what it is today right just imagine in a

it is today right just imagine in a

it is today right just imagine in a couple years what that’s gonna look like

couple years what that’s gonna look like

couple years what that’s gonna look like right um I feel like in the next five

right um I feel like in the next five

right um I feel like in the next five years a lot of this will be seen and

years a lot of this will be seen and

years a lot of this will be seen and will be observed a lot of people will be

will be observed a lot of people will be

will be observed a lot of people will be looking at this and will be kind of

looking at this and will be kind of

looking at this and will be kind of wondering how how this works how this

wondering how how this works how this

wondering how how this works how this how does this work right how does this

how does this work right how does this

how does this work right how does this happen

happen

happen that you just have this holographic

that you just have this holographic

that you just have this holographic image and this holographic image is

image and this holographic image is

image and this holographic image is really engaging with you and answering

really engaging with you and answering

really engaging with you and answering questions and looking at you and also

questions and looking at you and also

questions and looking at you and also maybe giving you a picture or giving you

maybe giving you a picture or giving you

maybe giving you a picture or giving you history of the world right can you

history of the world right can you

history of the world right can you imagine that so just sitting in and kind

imagine that so just sitting in and kind

imagine that so just sitting in and kind of also engaging with other scientists I

of also engaging with other scientists I

of also engaging with other scientists I feel like that there’s a lot of good and

feel like that there’s a lot of good and

feel like that there’s a lot of good and there’s a lot of things that we also

there’s a lot of things that we also

there’s a lot of things that we also have to work on there’s a lot of

have to work on there’s a lot of

have to work on there’s a lot of challenges as as I mentioned one of them

challenges as as I mentioned one of them

challenges as as I mentioned one of them being the human interaction but of

being the human interaction but of

being the human interaction but of course before we even came up with all

course before we even came up with all

course before we even came up with all this new technology before we developed

this new technology before we developed

this new technology before we developed this new technology and we came up with

this new technology and we came up with

this new technology and we came up with tablets and we came up with these Apple

tablets and we came up with these Apple

tablets and we came up with these Apple watch and all these different things

watch and all these different things

watch and all these different things right we used to kind of interact on a

right we used to kind of interact on a

right we used to kind of interact on a face to face basis right we would kind

face to face basis right we would kind

face to face basis right we would kind of get together and you know if there’s

of get together and you know if there’s

of get together and you know if there’s something that we had a talk or we had a

something that we had a talk or we had a

something that we had a talk or we had a dress it would be done it would be done

dress it would be done it would be done

dress it would be done it would be done on a face-to-face basis but I mean we’ve

on a face-to-face basis but I mean we’ve

on a face-to-face basis but I mean we’ve become adaptive we’ve all become

become adaptive we’ve all become

become adaptive we’ve all become adaptive to the changes of Technology

adaptive to the changes of Technology

adaptive to the changes of Technology right technology is now everywhere we

right technology is now everywhere we

right technology is now everywhere we look right it’s it’s it’s in our

look right it’s it’s it’s in our

look right it’s it’s it’s in our classroom it’s in our car it’s in our

classroom it’s in our car it’s in our

classroom it’s in our car it’s in our homes it’s everywhere so it’s not to say

homes it’s everywhere so it’s not to say

homes it’s everywhere so it’s not to say that we won’t completely adjust to

that we won’t completely adjust to

that we won’t completely adjust to having a hologram or having something

having a hologram or having something

having a hologram or having something speak to us that’s something that we’re

speak to us that’s something that we’re

speak to us that’s something that we’re not used to but I think if

not used to but I think if

not used to but I think if actually a lot of these challenges will

actually a lot of these challenges will

actually a lot of these challenges will be overcome and I think that the future

be overcome and I think that the future

be overcome and I think that the future does look quite interesting the other

does look quite interesting the other

does look quite interesting the other thing which I find to be intriguing is

thing which I find to be intriguing is

thing which I find to be intriguing is is having everything in in your in your

is having everything in in your in your

is having everything in in your in your classroom be connected to the hologram

classroom be connected to the hologram

classroom be connected to the hologram oh and and this this would be an

oh and and this this would be an

oh and and this this would be an interesting thing because I I feel like

interesting thing because I I feel like

interesting thing because I I feel like when you’re in a classroom you want to

when you’re in a classroom you want to

when you’re in a classroom you want to not just engage with one hologram but

not just engage with one hologram but

not just engage with one hologram but you might want to engage with multiple

you might want to engage with multiple

you might want to engage with multiple holograms so just imagine if just having

holograms so just imagine if just having

holograms so just imagine if just having your friend there in a hologram form but

your friend there in a hologram form but

your friend there in a hologram form but your friend is in in a different part of

your friend is in in a different part of

your friend is in in a different part of the country but just having them be

the country but just having them be

the country but just having them be there right and and inspiring you and

there right and and inspiring you and

there right and and inspiring you and motivating you right that that is

motivating you right that that is

motivating you right that that is something tremendous right to have it

something tremendous right to have it

something tremendous right to have it will of course give you motivation and

will of course give you motivation and

will of course give you motivation and it will inspire you to work much much

it will inspire you to work much much

it will inspire you to work much much harder so I think that a lot of this is

harder so I think that a lot of this is

harder so I think that a lot of this is is gonna happen and and it will it will

is gonna happen and and it will it will

is gonna happen and and it will it will happen in the next couple of years and

happen in the next couple of years and

happen in the next couple of years and just like when I was a boy in and I

just like when I was a boy in and I

just like when I was a boy in and I watched you know the Jetsons and I asked

watched you know the Jetsons and I asked

watched you know the Jetsons and I asked myself the question will this ever

myself the question will this ever

myself the question will this ever happen will this ever work right and now

happen will this ever work right and now

happen will this ever work right and now couple years later right we have all

couple years later right we have all

couple years later right we have all this right we have most of this right

this right we have most of this right

this right we have most of this right we’re even to the point where your car

we’re even to the point where your car

we’re even to the point where your car might fly right so I mean I think many

might fly right so I mean I think many

might fly right so I mean I think many of these things will come to light and

of these things will come to light and

of these things will come to light and just like Michio Kaku said things things

just like Michio Kaku said things things

just like Michio Kaku said things things are changing and technology is always

are changing and technology is always

are changing and technology is always changing thank you so much

changing thank you so much

changing thank you so much [Applause]
