Grand Challenges of Engineering
This is actually the first time I've heard about these grand challenges. Having looked over them, I can see why these are considered the next goals in technological advancement that will act as the catalyst for human evolution. In particular, I strongly associate with the following three challenges:
- Provide Access to Clean Water
- Make Solar Energy Economical
- Enhance Virtual Reality - Smarter Lenses: Newly launched mobile eye-test device could lead to prescription virtual-reality screens., Rob Matheson, MIT News, October 19th, 2015
