Nano Futures in an idea coined by Jarno M. Koponen in his work on Personal Future simulation.

Our brain is embedded with models of our everyday routines and actions. The brain predicts possible nano-future states of our environment and ourselves in everything we do (e.g. when picking up a pencil, keeping the balance when riding a bike, mastering the choreography of eating while talking to a colleague during lunch). Nano-future predictions happen automatically. They don’t necessarily require conscious thinking, yet they are fundamental building blocks of our effortless existence. [1]
