Interactive graphic shows travel tech in 2050

From teleportation tubes to flying cars, getting from A to B looks like it will be more fun in the future, if science fiction films are to be believed. And some of these futuristic visions are expected to become reality within our lifetimes. To shed light on how we might get around in the year 2050, electronics firm RS Components has created an interactive module that showcases some of the most exciting predictions. Users can input their current age to see in how many years they might be able to travel in a next-generation airliner with panoramic windows, or even take a high speed monorail to work – if all the jobs have not been taken by robots. By 2050, when self-driving cars will seem part of normal life, air travel is set to become more exciting.
