Every day technology develops and progresses, and new trends are created. Event\u00a0managers should be familiar with the latest technology, in order to organize events\u00a0that are trendy and managed to meet and exceed the growing expectations of the\u00a0participants. Here are some key technologies and trends for the future of events as\u00a0the company envisions it, by the Ms. Cassandra Michael, Sales and Marketing Manager\u00a0at Azavista.

\n

1. Augmented Reality\u00a0Supplier Sourcing

\n

Various augmented reality headsets\u00a0like Oculus Rift are being launched.\u00a0The current focus is on gaming,\u00a0but Azavista predicts that in\u00a0the near future hotels will allow\u00a0planners to view meeting and event\u00a0facilities virtually, just from the\u00a0comfort of their desk or home.

\n

2. Setting up your venue\u00a0interactively

\n

Azavista presented Leap Motion,\u00a0a device that allows you to control\u00a0a computer in three dimensions
\nwith your natural hand and finger\u00a0movements.
\nAzavista predicts that this technology\u00a0will be used side by side with\u00a0AR head-sets and allow planners\u00a0to create their meeting or event\u00a0set-up in an interactive and virtual\u00a0way.

\n

3. The end of translation booths

\n

Microsoft\u2019s Skype Translator automatically\u00a0translates your voice\u00a0and video calls with real-time translation.\u00a0It\u2019s still in beta version and\u00a0there is vast room for improvement,\u00a0especially regarding the contextualization\u00a0of conversations.

\n

Nevertheless,\u00a0according to Azavista, in\u00a0the near future we might see this\u00a0technology replacing translation\u00a0booths. Delegates will be able to\u00a0follow any presentation in any language\u00a0just from their smartphones.

4. Your future contingency\u00a0plan for rain

\n

A new kick starter campaign presented\u00a0the Air Umbrella – a literally\u00a0invisible umbrella which takes advantage\u00a0of airflow and creates shelter\u00a0from the rain. Azavista estimates\u00a0that we might see this technology\u00a0expanding and possibly being using\u00a0for big outdoor events.

\n

5. Your personal event chauffeur

\n

Google, Audi, Mercedes, GM and\u00a0more are all working on Self-driving\u00a0Technology.\u00a0By 2020 these\u00a0vehicles will probably be on the\u00a0road. Azavista predicts that self driving\u00a0cars will be notified automatically\u00a0when a delegate lands\u00a0and be at the pick-up point right\u00a0on time.

\n

6. Post Event questionnaires\u00a0with… robots

\n

Social robotics will also find its place\u00a0in the meeting industry. According\u00a0to Azavista, post event questionnaires\u00a0and evaluations might\u00a0be substituted by robots that will\u00a0collect participant feedback on\u00a0the spot. Blabdroids are a good\u00a0example of this trend.
\nAccording to a study endorsed by\u00a0the Massachusetts Institute of Technology,\u00a0people are more likely\u00a0to engage emotionally with artificial\u00a0intelligence than others. The\u00a0robots are intended to be comforting\u00a0and non-judgmental.

7. A Wearable Thermostat

\n

Wristify is a bracelet that controls\u00a0your body temperature using thermo-\u00a0electric material and sensors.\u00a0As a future scenario, Azavista can\u00a0see these bracelets being handed\u00a0out to event attendees, thus ensuring\u00a0everyone is 100% comfortable\u00a0and the temperature is according\u00a0to their own personal preferences.
