Within a decade, the device at the centre of daily life may be no phone at all, but a pair of eyeglasses able to switch between virtual and augmented reality.

Touch will reach across distances through haptic feedback, and searching will shift from typed words toward a visual web far larger than today's internet, where a glance at a logo can lead to a purchase. Medicine, schooling and job training are expected to change as well, with students touring battlefields and surgeons practising on simulated patients.
