Unlimited abilities (robotic wheelchair)

The notion of a person with a disability is slowly disappearing. Even the worst injury is no longer an obstacle to living a full life. People who cannot walk, can travel freely around the city, or even the globe, in a virtual space. Or, if they prefer, they can do it in real life too — using robotic wheelchairs.


A personal carrier can move around the city autonomously. And if the user starts feeling bad the device can immediately administer first-aid and transport the person to the nearest medical centre.

ren Why stop there? Why not just remove the mind from the body and be done with physical constraints? (BTW I agree with the prediction) but it'd be far more efficient to remove the biological body altogether from the equation.

Christopher Sweezey We ALREADY have bionic limbs being researched. It seems unrealistic to think that wheelchairs would still be commonly used by 2050.
