I am working on a project for BUS 390 - Global Business - for Grand Canyon University. The project is about Japan. There are different parts to the project... Historical Issues and Globalization, International Political Economy, Cultural differences, etc. I have completed all but this last question which deals with "Looking Forward". I have to use the Hype Cycle in this explanation and am stuck on this question. The question is to explain how the hype cycle works. Which I have done. Below is the next question under the "Looking Forward" bullet. Hope this helps with the explanation.

Determine an existing or emerging local technology (in Japan) and describe its global impact.
