Gamescom Galore: The Tech Thrills Are Real

From gaming to green tech, the future is here, and it's a lot of fun — and a bit surreal.

Tech Now's latest episode delivers a virtual tour of the big reveals at Gamescom, the annual showcase for all things gaming. This year, the focus is on cutting-edge tech that's pushing the boundaries of what gamers can expect from their consoles and VR experiences. Not only are we talking about the latest in graphics and hardware, but also the innovative software that's making gaming more immersive than ever before. But it’s not just about games. Tech Now also explores the intersection of tech and the environment, looking at how new technologies are being used to protect our forests, and even how AI is being applied to solve some of the world's most complex art history mysteries.


Meanwhile, the team dives into the world of esports, exploring the latest trends and how these games are evolving into a serious competitive sport. For those who are more interested in the nitty-gritty of tech, there's a deep dive into the race for the ultimate supercomputer, with exclusive access to Microsoft's Quantum Lab in Denmark. And for the history buffs, there's a look at how technology is being used to restore a historic warship in Sweden, bringing back to life a piece of maritime history.


But Gamescom isn't just about tech and history. The episode also ventures into the realm of future farming, meeting innovators in Australia using tech to revolutionize agriculture. And for those who are curious about the future of fashion, there's an exploration of an AI startup working to solve the erratic sizing problems in the industry. Tech Now leaves no stone unturned, covering everything from heart surgery to climate change, all with the same sharp eye for detail and the latest in tech.
