Georgia Tech gathers predictions about our cool future

Georgia Tech, which is pretty much the hottest job magnet in metro Atlanta these days, recently held a symposium on cool ways computers will change our world even more.

Get ready for gee-whiz stuff, from ways to fix our limitations (bye-bye color blindness?) to high-tech clothing that senses and changes with our moods to tiny microbes that build stuff for us (apparently some are already making scents for the perfume industry).

Tech researchers and outside guests from the fashion world to the U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency came in to talk about what they see ahead, all part of an event to mark the 25th anniversary of the university’s College of Computing.
