Wakandan Technology Today: A CIA Scientist Explores the Possibilities
This year, Marvel’s Black Panther and Avengers: Infinity War introduced the fictional African nation of Wakanda, where exclusive access to a unique metal called vibranium has helped drive the most technologically advanced country on the planet.
This future tech, much of it designed by supergenius scientist and artist Shuri, permeates the movie…but how much of it is real, probable, or possible? Shuri designs for Wakandan infrastructure as well as making tech for Wakanda’s “War Dogs,” including intelligence operatives like Nakia. How much of the movie’s futuristic technology is available to the real-world intelligence officers of today?
As part of our #ReelvsRealCIA series, we decided to pose these questions to one of the CIA’s most innovative scientists. We will call her “Rebecca.” Rebecca not only has a background in the traditional sciences, but also in emerging technologies and digital innovation. Here is Rebecca’s take on how Wakanda’s tech matches up with emerging “real life” tech.
*Spoiler Alert: Below discussion contains spoilers about Marvel’s (2018) Black Panther feature film.
