WELCOME TO THE FUTURE!
WORLDS FAIR NANO
SAN FRANCISCO – PIER 48
MARCH 10TH & 11TH 2018
Last weekend I decided to surprise my geek hubby who is a proper techie in love with technology and, happy as a clam when he can experience futuristic technology first hand!
Where could I bring him if not to the Worlds Fair Nano?!!
It was amazing even for a non-geek person like me, I had so much fun and here some of the things we enjoyed the most.
Ready to step into VR, fly drones, race electric skateboards, draw with 3d pens, experience augmented reality, play with robots, try 3d printing and have conversations with the founders and creators responsible for these epic futures?
Ok so let’s step together into the future!
♦ Venue:
San Francisco – Pier 48
♦ Time:
March 10th & 11th 2018 from 10 am to 6 pm (it happens every year so this post might be helpful for next year)
♦ What not to be missed:
-
Fly FPV Drones
You can actually learn how to fly a Fat Shark drone in ‘first person view’ using a headset and joystick.
This experience is one of the coolest ones and it’s gonna take a while as it divided into 3 stages:
- Stage 1: Simulate
- Stage 2: Learn to navigate
- Stage 3: Fly FPV (First Person View)

Electric Vehicles
There were different types of electric vehicles for you to try, from skateboards to hoverboards to one-wheeled contraptions and you can really try all of them.
Experience a new way to commute or surf on land! (very convenient to ride the steep hills of San Francisco) ?

Motiv Ring
Do you want to track your workouts, your heart rate and your sleep in a smarter and more discrete way? This ring got me! Instead of wearing the common watch you can wear your teeny tiny ring which does the same exact work but in a miniature shape.
It’s very durable, battery lasts 3 days, it comes in different size like a proper ring and, yes it’s waterproof too!

3D Doodler
OMG, this was absolutely incredible!! You can draw whatever you want with your 3D pen and then even wear it!
We tried to draw some cool sunglasses and for being our first attempt I must say the result it’s not bad at all! What do you think?
Cool, yay?? ?
