    Technology ("science of craft", from Greek τέχνη, techne, "art, skill, cunning of hand"; and -λογία, -logia|) is the collection of techniques, skills, methods, and processes used in the production of goods or services or in the accomplishment of objectives, such as scientific investigation.”

    Automation is the technology by which a process or procedure is performed with minimal human assistance.”

    Automated locking system makes bikesharing efficient.

    AI

    Artificial intelligence (AI), sometimes called machine intelligence, is intelligence demonstrated by machines, in contrast to the natural intelligence displayed by humans and animals. Colloquially, the term "artificial intelligence" is used to describe machines that mimic "cognitive" functions that humans associate with other human minds, such as "learning" and "problem solving".”

    AI is can be divided to multiple subfields:

    • w:Expert system is a computer system that emulates the decision-making ability of a human expert. ( Wikipedia )

    Ecological tech

    There are various interesting ecological technologies being piloted.

    Hydrogen purified steel

    In Sweden, w:SSAB and partners are building a pilot production line where iron for steel making is not purified by a process called coking, but instead using massive amounts of hydrogen to purify it. See e.g. the official HYBRIT website for more info.
