2. Bionic（仿生的）eye
（1） People who are blind may have a chance to get their sight back---by wearing bionic eyes . A blind eye can no longer sense light but a bionic eye can use a camera to “see” the environment and send data into the brain.
Although the bionic eye that’s out now only allow patients to see lights and unclear shapes a high resolution（高清的）version could be just a few years away.
3. Self-driving car
Unlike a human driver a self-driving car won’t be distracted （分神）by a phone call the radio or something outside the window.
