The importance of calibration will continue to increase. As technology pushes further, measurements need to be more accurate, and calibration becomes more critical.

In the future, even more technologically advanced transport systems are expected, requiring more precise measurements that must be guaranteed by calibration. For example, consider the self-driving cars we see on the road today. This will become increasingly important as part of future transportation systems. Knowing that the accuracy of self-driving car precision measurement systems passes the higher level of assurance offered by calibration, we all feel a little queasy about self-driving cars. It will get better.
