Undergraduate / "Technological Advancement"; University of Wisconsin-Madison: Something Unnoticed [4]

This is what I have so far for one of the University of Wisconsin-Madison application essays. The topic is something in your life that goes unnoticed and why it's important to you. Any help or suggestions for improvement?

Technological Advancement
No matter how stagnant the world seems to be, it is undeniable that we are advancing at an astonishing pace each and every day. Today, most people live their daily lives with commonplace gadgets such as cell phones, televisions, GPS, and more. However, none of these modern conveniences would have been thought possible just a century ago. The amount of innovation and progress made by mankind is staggering.

Even just the last two decades have seen world changing advancements. The Internet was just starting to be explored when my parents graduated high school. Now it is an essential tool for global communication, one that multi-billion dollar companies rely on for business. When I was in 4th grade a personal touch screen device like the iPad seemed like something taken straight out of a Star Wars movie. Now we use touch screen smartphones and tablets on a daily basis.

It is things like these that lead me to wonder about what the world will be like in ten, thirty, or even sixty years from now. Hearing about something like nuclear fusion becoming an energy source within the next twenty years is amazing. We make huge strides in research every day and are on the verge of countless discoveries and innovations. Not only will I be able to watch as the world advances, I have a chance to contribute to the ideas and research that make it happen. I can play a part in determining which objects of today's science fiction become reality tomorrow.
