The Benefits of New Technology 
by Connor Goodson

New technology is everywhere! From toys, to cars, to new ways of communication! Today I will share with you some new inventions, and tell you how they benefit us.

One invention is the driverless car. This is something that has been in mind for a while. For example, in The Incredibles, one of the first few scenes shows Mr. Incredible in a driverless car.

This will benefit us in safety because most car accidents are caused by human error.  The driverless car could save lives.  Also, people could multi-task while traveling to work.  The driverless car is expected to be available to purchase before 2020.

Another invention is the Oculus Rift.  This is a head-mounted device that changes the experience of playing video games.  There is a screen inside the device that gives you a close up experience and makes you feel like you are inside the game.

This technology has many benefits.  I believe it will be used in the future not only for video games but for other purposes such as training people to operate machinery or teaching them a new skill.

Question of the week:  Make up a new invention, explain what it will do, and tell why people would buy it.
