Which fictional tech do you wish was real?

I think time travel would be the coolest tech that I wish was a reality providing there is no consequences from using it (don't want to accidentally change the timeline and wipe myself out) and because I have always had a fascination with my ancestry and genealogy I would probably use a time travel machine to meet family members and explore what life was actually like for them. Also travelling to other famous time eras would be a cool experience. To the past! to the future!

The Oasis, Ready Player One

The very idea of this tickles me, the very idea of an entire population living in a simulation is probably one of the best fictional techs I can think of, now whilst people may respond to this post saying "Yes but we have this". We don't.

We have VR Headsets and a limited movement, but the very set of what the Oasis actually means and stands for could be I think, one the greatest things ever brought into the real world. In retrospect, can it be considered a bad thing? Humans spending that much time in VR, I would say no.

Now imagine a world where everything we can earn, sell, move, and change, is all about VR, imagine that war just isn't a thing anymore, where in the Oasis as he states "you can be anything you want to be" - I think this, is an incredible thing to have happen and it's a tech I just wish was real. Death Races, skiing down death mountains, huge warzones, other stuff...

But this could be an answer to the world's problems of conflict, conquest, and disorder, giving humans the very ability to live out any fantasy online (within reason) and to thrive.

For me, I'd use it to make money, race stupidly fast cars, jump into warzones and go nuts for fun, and just use it for the fun it was invented for!

I suppose you could call me a "peace" nut, but I would prefer a world like this, where this level of "I wish this was real" was actually real.

If I had to pick any type of fictional tech, it would have to be one of the belts/drivers from the Kamen Rider franchise, as I've always wanted to perform a real HENSHIN!/rider transformation.

Neural Prosthetic Devices

The Neural Prosthetic Device is a little neural implant that, through a medical procedure, gets partially inserted into the user's head to access their minds. Featured in most of the episodes, the main episode that I will base this off is San Junipero (The absolute best episode in the series)

After the neural prosthetic device (NPD) is inserted into the user's mind, that's where the magic starts.

In San Junipero, these neural implants are all part of a simulated universe called San Junipero, where dead or dying people can 'pass over' and have their minds and consciousness stored in this simulated world and pretty much live forever inside the simulated world

Not only that, but it allows elderly or sick a chance to experience nostalgia in their final moments of their lives.

It's not entirely restricted to gloom and doom scenarios though, it can also be mainstream consumed as well - in Striking Vipers, two good friends (who are a little more than just friends) play a form of Street Fighter, except they're connected to the cloud where their minds are transferred into the fighters.

So imagine that - being able to transfer your consciousness, your mind to wherever you want, wherever you can go. All with a small tiny device.

Web shooters off spider man!

Imagine how cool it would be swinging around a city and being able to climb massive heights with just these.
