The list showcases emerging technologies with the potential to radically shape all sectors: from education and sustainability to robotics and artificial intelligence.
This year, the 2024 list comprises 138 groundbreaking technologies developed by startups, established companies, and research teams. Still in the early stages of development for some, each represents innovation that is slated to revolutionize industries and society within the next five years.
Kaleidescape has revolutionized the home theater experience in residential and marine markets for over 20 years. As a digital provider that stands alone in offering movies with lossless audio and full reference video quality, Kaleidescape offers an unparalleled cinematic experience. Its platform provides customers with thousands of movies, TV series, and concerts for purchase or rent.
