Some of the historical ads that correctly imagined how the present will be!

The Dhaka Times Desk We don't know where technology will take us in the future, nor did our ancestors know where we are today. However, at the time, many companies created advertisements based on the idea of what the future might hold.

Today we bring you 5 historical ads that were conceived with today's technology that we use today.

1. The first ad was AT&T. They ran a TV ad based on the idea of what future technology would be like in the 90s. It showed people using advanced TVs, using maps in cars, watching TV at the same time, using the Internet at the beach, these were AT&T around 1993 or 1992. Its concept, but we have moved far beyond that concept of AT&T today, we have many advanced technologies including Google Glass, smart phones, street view cars.

2. In 1967, CBS organized a program about how the 21st century will be, when the presenter sat in front of a huge machine and explained that in the 21st century, home theater will be in people's homes! Maybe people can watch a live football match at home. Yes, these ideas were imagined at that time, but today these ideas of CBS have become real and true. Now we can watch sports or events held in any continent from the comfort of our homes.

3. This ad was created by Apple, the most talked about and famous technology company of today, it is an ad from 1987 where Apple showed that they are going to bring a technology where people can easily make direct video calls, exchange messages and bring touchscreen technology.
