(speculativity warning!)

Note: The potential applications listed here should only be taken as motivation for the development of APM.
It should not be taken too seriously since this compilation will be very incomplete and in parts probably quite wrong.
Do not intermix the questionable feasability of the here presented example aplications with the rather sound feasability of technology level III.
For those of the presented prospective technologies that will become possible it will be thanks to smart combinations of the expectable new materials.

List of potential applications

For in depth discussion of individual technologies please go to the general discussion page or create a dedicated page and link to it from here.

Note: the levels of likelyhood are perceived rather subjective.
This is a bit problematic for a wiki but theres a need for this classification.

Industrial

very high likelyhood

  • fully automatic miniature greenhouses -> reduction of land usage
  • metal free means of transport
  • supercomputers in glasses and contact lenses
  • dynamically adjustable glasses and gratis hearing aids
  • no more chains on bikes and motorcycles
  • extremely good thermal isolation for housesenorm (thermos flask level)
  • a lot better prosthetics

high likelyhood

  • open source AP 3D printer in key tag format
  • superstreets including (solar cells, energy transport, microcompnent redistribution, ...)
  • very comfortable suits with passive thermoregulation over a wide range of ambient temperature
  • extreme high buildings - whatever they may be for
  • mid sized private windwheels -> construction bans expectable

medium likelyhood

  • cheap dynamically changable buildings and rooms -> dust free construction
  • almost inaudible planes
  • flood and tsunami stopper flaps (defense against the forces of nature)
  • a giant number of solar energy collecting and CO2 reducing buoys or micro airships
  • significantly improved transportation network -> strong cultural mixing
  • rapid expansion of spaceflight - asteroids - space sports - interplanetary spaceflight
  • private laboratoy for everyone
  • a new artform of techno-plants
  • a global microcomponent redistribution system

questionable

... and many more


Medical

Developments in medicine tend to require more scientific discoveries (e.g. the undertanding of the interaction of the bodies proteins) often making [exploratory engineering] impossible.

Technology Level 0 and I will also advance in a direction of biosystem improvement (technology path µ). Wether and how T.Level III machines will wield those more bio-mimetic tools is an question that will remain open for quite some time since this question it in essence goes backward the technology levels into the yet unknown gap.
