Top 35 World Trends in October

From AI-Based Restoration Methods to Portable Igloo Hotels

— October 27, 2019 — World
The list of October 2019 world trends explores global ways of innovation, whether it is implemented to a product, service, or overall experience. Some of the world trends aim for progression and others look at how to preserve the past and making it a prominent experience for current-day.

One of the examples of this is done by TU Delft researchers as the group experiments with artificial intelligence. They look at restoration methods using pixels to restore faded art and capture as much authenticity as possible. Another world trend this month is the North Pole Igloo Destination package by Luxury Action. The experience features portable pods that represent igloos and are made with glass walls and ceilings to unveil a beautiful view of the northern sky.
