Weekend Open Forum: What sci-fi tech would you like to see become reality?

[Guest]

I hope all the technology in star trek become reality, so human will be united just like in star trek.

Moral politicians, like they have in the Sci-Fi movies.

Minded controlled tecnology, everthing just a thought away

This is not all that far off. Some instances of it exist already.

One thing from cartoons:

1) Dragonball Capsule Corp. Capsules - these devices use technology to store the molecules of objects in a small capsule for easy transportation, and are about the size of a small 16G CO2 canister/cartridge. The objects are stored in a gaseous state inside the capsule. When triggered, the capsule shall be tossed some distance away from the user, then the capsule releases the molecules of the item in a sudden explosion-like gas cloud. Presumably nano-machinery reassembles the objects. After a few short seconds the stored item becomes self aligned and fully functioning. Items can range from machinery such as a car or airplane, to fully functioning houses complete with plumbing and electricity! Items can be returned to their capsule state by pressing a button on the item allowing it to transition back to a gas. Which is somehow vacuumed back into the small capsule.

Also, a nod toward the Portal Gun or other teleportation-like devices.

OK, but you do realize that those little capsules have to weigh as much as the full sized version, er right?
