Your research should aim to place the technology, which was presented to you in context. By this it is meant that you should discuss:

1. Where has the technology emerged from – is a development of an existing technology, or is it a new technology?

2. Are there similar existing technologies? These should be discussed in order to present the matter under discussion in context.

3. What are the salient features of the technology?

4. Contrast and compare it to other similar technologies, if they exist.

5. Have potential markets and uses for this technology been identified? If so, discuss. If not, speculate upon possible markets.

6. Can you foresee how this technology may impact upon the identified markets?

7. What are the social, economic or technological implications of this technology’s broad adoption?
