Flying Cars Jetpacks
The transportation in The Jetsons is primarily flying car, if you can recall
George driving everyone to their respective locations in their opening billboard.
Although we are not there yet with flying cars, maybe in 2062, but humans
have made significant improvements with Terrafugia Transition, which can get
up to 62 mph on the road. Human flight is achievable in the said television
series through jetpacks. We also have that now in
our aim to also be elevated.
Dog Treadmills Smartwatch
Astro casually takes dog walks through a treadmill, which already
exists to exercise their favorite canine. The first smartwatch that shows images and videos might
have been in The Jetsons. Even when the screen is so small,
it still works with George and even the humans just to
watch the favorite shows.
