Continual technological improvement has made metaphors depict these real-world experiences more realistically to ultimately enhance interface performance.

One technological improvement that fire departments would employ would be thermal imaging detection of differences in heat.

This marks the technological improvement from spin-stabilisation, used in earlier cylindrical satellites, to three-axis stabilisation using momentum wheels and reaction wheels controlling the satellite gyroscopically.

While the tune-o-matic bridge seemed like a technological improvement at the time, the metal bridge had negative effects on tone and volume.

Plane and engine makers are already working on efficiency, but technological improvements will take many years to flow through.
