ITT: name which (currently) outrageously expensive tech will (in the near future) become super affordable and get widespread adoption to the point on becoming super common

Intel processors xd

VR

no way, imo. pc hardware will inevtiably become cheaper but it will still remain a luxury like owning a relevant TV (always costs a few 000's)
>>
>>57951876
I think high quality headphones will become more accessible over time as normal people escape the beats meme
>>
>>57952637
top lel. not gonna happen. it will always remain expensive as it has remained so for decades. it's not that the tech is new, but that normies don't care.
>>
>>57952637
Normys will always fall for marketing
>>
>>57952637
Dude get a pair of ATH-M50s or something, they don't cost too much and are great.
>>
>>57952681
le reddit xD

HDR displays.

Someone watched 8-bit guy today

passive infra red

i wish ;_;

- LowEndBox-tier GPU clusters for machine learning are coming soon
- Large SSDs
- Lab-grown meat
- CRISPRgenome editing
>>57952602
Probably not, but AR may become super common.
>>
>>57952634
VR gaming essentially requires a PC that can run normal games at mas resolution and 120fps, so regardless of when a game is released even years from now your PC is going to have to be considerably more powerful than one that is just going to run it at a normal monitors resolution and 60fps. VR in general is more than high end gaming though, give it 10 years and ti will drop a fair bit in price. For the unit itself anyway.

What are these for?
>>
high capacity SSDs will be bigger and cheaper than HDDs to the point of them being totally redundant.
>>
>>57952637
Stuff in the general consumer price range will increase in quality, but there will always be a market for artisan hand-made headphones using components crafted in some pure-gas environment with an improvement in sound quality that can only be discriminated by a computer testing in an anechoic chamber.

tl;dr digital camera from the 90s. Stored pictures on a floppy disc.

>passive infra red
for what purpose?

>>57956675
>- CRISPRgenome editing
elaborate
>>
>>57951876
Hopefully full sized RGB eink computer monitors.
>>
>>57956844
I've been hearing this for years. If anything, SSDs seem to be more expensive than half a year ago, at least in Europe.

FLIR/Thermal optics
Maybe not widespread adoption but the prices will probably drop a zero point once it becomes mass producable and chinks get their hands on it.
>>
>>57958139
this
I just jumped on board with a FLIR one, a $200 device that does what a $10,000 device did 5-10 years ago.

in another 5 years they'll be built into everybody's smartphone as a standard requirement.
>>
>>57956844
This. It will take a while, but will happen inevitably.

It happened when we went tapes to floppies to CDs to DVDs to flash drives as they became cheaper respectively and more reliable, it's bound to happen with HDDs to SSDs.
>>
>>57958905
What phone do you use it with?
>>
>>57956835
Our school had one.
They were available at a time when film was king.
You'd use them if you had a requirement for fast and easy photography, without as much of a requirement of quality. Think newsletters or reports.

Professionals did something similar with early professional digital cameras. They were nothing more than two or three megapixels, but being able to send a colour photograph to a newsroom overseas in minutes over the internet was almost like magic.

Someone watched 8-bit fag

yes. I did. I like his videos.

8-bit fag is a pretty cool fag though
>>
>>57957524
Probably someone will develop their own custom enzyme from scratch that is better than CRSIPR but CRISPR can still be used to bootstrap the process.
>>
>>57956844
Daily reminder that SSDs become less reliable and have less write cycles when the size of the transistor decreases.
>>
>>57951876
3D headsets.

Phone class LCD panels are cheap, the optics involved are cheap, plastic is cheap, and the head tracking technology will simplify, improve and become far cheaper.
>>
>>57966264
this.

Old Kingston Fury x is a lot better than the new one in terms of reliability and longevity
>>
>>57959992
this should've happened after the taiwan floods, why wouldn't they shift production towards SSD manufacturing rather than going right back to HDD
