What are some examples of modern day cutting edge technologies?

For class, I have to write a two page paper on cutting edge technologies (technology that's only been conceived within the last year). I've been searching for examples, but have found nothing so far that has substantial information. Does anyone know of anything very modern that may not even be available for the public, at least just a conceived idea. If you think of anything, please try to give me a link describing said technology.

Thanks to anyone who helps!

P.S. I actually have to write two papers on two different technologies.

    There are now cars that can drive themselves. They exist and are ready for sale and use but there are insurance issues.
