5 Years Out - What are your expected Cash Cows in 5 years?

HKPhysicist
HKPhysicist over 1 year ago

A famous electronics wholesaler`s slogan - "5 Years Out".

So what kind of relevant electronics technology or product will become a Cash Cow 5 years later from now on?Money mouth

Please show your opinions.

Let me start first.

As British Defence Minister expressed in public, we are entering pre-World War stage.  I expect that new military applications can become cash cows.

  1. Defensive drone primarily for annihilating the opponent`s invading drone.
  2. Very fast Machine Vision for identifying EM wave stealth objects.
  3. Money mouth

    EV is being abandoned, though.

    Please check recent EU announcement.Smirk

    Internal Combustion Engine with non-carbon working fluid is always the correct direction.

    Could be, as long as the metaverses allows people to include all their worldly vices into the metaverse and let the id run wild, i.e. be unaccountable for bad behaviors.
