Sabre Corporation, the leading technology provider to the global travel industry, has released its latest technology forecast, Sabre Labs\u2019 2017 Radar Report. The report evaluates nine key technologies with an outsized impact on the travel landscape, looking at what\u2019s happening today and what to expect for tomorrow. <\/p>\n
\u201cWe are in the midst of increasingly rapid and dramatic technological change, poised to revolutionize how and where we travel,\u201d says Mark McSpadden, vice president of emerging products and technologies for Sabre Corporation. \u201cTechnologies like artificial intelligence, neural interfaces and quantum computing each have the potential to produce change as dramatic as the growth of the Internet.\u201d <\/p>\n
Here\u2019s a sneak peak at what\u2019s included in the Radar Report:<\/p>\n
Blockchain \u2013 Being hailed as the new \u201cInternet of Trust,\u201d blockchain is awash in innovators looking to transform industries, governments, commerce and culture. We look at short and long term effects most likely to change the travel landscape.<\/p>\n
Neural interfaces \u2013 When it comes to the mind, there are two very different challenges: extracting information out and transferring new information in. Neural interfaces attempt to address one or both challenges, and can do so in either an invasive or non-invasive way. <\/p>\n
Space Tourism \u2013 Mars is the final frontier of human travel for our lifetimes, but closer to home, commercial and government competition is heating up as a 21st century \u201cspace race.\u201d It\u2019s not just promising orbiting hotels, but trickle down technologies that will bring all corners of the earth closer together.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe next generation will see a radical transformation of how we live, work and play,\u201d says McSpadden. \u201cWe see tremendous opportunities for businesses to start experimenting with and implementing technologies like blockchain, augmented reality and trusted presence to help shape a more seamless, safe and personalized future for travel.\u201d<\/p>\n
