From the world's largest underground hotels to star-Wars like holographic communications, the upcoming year is set to unveil an array of incredile advances in science and technology. *- Holographic Telepresence:-- the growth in video communication has been exponential. Skype now boasts 300 million users, and a 2012 Ipsos/Reuters polls revealed one in five people now frequently 'telecommuted' to work. but the Star Trek fans will be happy to hear that incoming technology will add further dimensions to international conference calls. Full 3 D holographic communication is not far behind - in the shape of polish company Leia.

The result is walk-in holographic room, in which 3 D objects can be viewed and manipulated from every angle. *- Formula E:-
Formula E will see drivers racing around city-center circuits- including London in battery-powered electric cars. The new championship which is backed by the FIA, motor racing's governing body promises cares as sexy as those driven by Lewis Hamilton, Sebastian Vettal et al, but with lithium-ion batteries and electric motors instead of fuel tanks and pistons. *- Faster Online Deliveries:- In this age of gratification, waiting days for interior purchases to arrive suddenly seems very 2013. So, from next year behemoths like Amazone and eBay will be stepping up their efforts to deliver goods on the same day they have bought even if that day is
Sunday. Eventually, Amazone founder Jeff Bezos envisions unmanned drones bringing products to people's doorsteps within half an hour. *- Space Flights"- Despite delays in testing- the first flights were promised by 2011- Sir Richard Branson's dream of making money in space is nearing reality. A test was completed in April and it was announced in November that television Netwerk NBC has agreed to televise first ever public flight from Mexico sometimes in 2014. *- China's Underground Hotel:-
in an abandoned quarry at the base of China's Tiammenshan Mountain, 30 miles outside of Shanghai, an extraordinay hotel is taking shape. At a cost of 345 million pounds, the InterContinental Hotels Group is building a five-star resort that will boast two floors above the top of the 330 ft rock face and another 17 storeys below the ground level two of which will be under water. If construction goes to plan, the first guest at the "World's first lowest hotel" will check-in by the end of 2014.
