Scientist Vanneva Bush imagined a possible direction of human technology after World War II in Memex, and imagined many technological developments, such as many advanced photography techniques, he thought that there would be faster materials and lenses in the future, and more The automatic camera, he imagined a camera slightly larger than a walnut could fit on a video hound. And at that time, it was only possible to develop through the exposure of the wet negative film. He believed that the picture could be formed without developing the negative film impregnated with diazo dye.
As Vannevar said, “Only the brave can predict.” People use their imagination and predictions to make more people study and use technology to realize predictions. The camera that is slightly larger than the walnut mentioned in the previous paragraph already exists. We can often see some user-uploaded videos on tik tok or youtube that put a small camera on their helmet or an animal body so that we can watch the video from a first perspective. Now some cameras do not need to soak the film, and the current Polaroid is a camera that can directly display photos and is widely used by everyone.
I think everyone can learn from the scientist Van Niwa to bravely predict future technologies and inventions. Only by daring to imagine will there be more possibilities and developments.
