Breakfast with Robots gives you a glimpse of what your daily routine could look like in the not-so-distant future. What will your morning look like in thirty years? Picture a robot butler serving your lab-grown breakfast, slug-like nanobots cleaning up after your shower, a 9,500-mile commute by rocket and using cranial implants to control your dreams. It may sound like a distant fantasy, but the future is already taking shape thanks to today's science. In equal parts exciting and unnerving, this book uncovers the incredible science and emerging technologies poised to transform how we eat, travel, work and rest. With accessible and digestible content alongside visual illustrations and fascinating facts, learn how these futuristic inventions could work and how close they are to becoming part of our everyday lives. The perfect gift for science lovers or anyone wanting to understand more about the next steps of technology. By understanding the science of today, we can predict - and prepare for - the extraordinary world of tomorrow.
