What new developments the future holds nobody knows for certain. In electronics people will try to miniaturise electric equipment even further. Non-functional, ceramic packaging will be converted into functional components. For this new ceramic materials are necessary, as are ways to process them. High-temperature superconductors will lead to magnetic levitation craft, cheap electricity and improved MRI (magnetic resonance imaging).
