How it works

Futuristic symbols to copy, starting with Flat hexagon. Diamonds, dials, switch signs, drafting marks and chevron brackets follow, then sci fi emoji, name frames and dividers. Unicode names no character futuristic, so the pick is this page's own.

Where the symbols come from

None was made to look like the future. Of the 41 text symbols, 22 are from the block Miscellaneous Technical: signs for keys and switches, drafting marks from engineering drawings and signs of the APL programming language. The brackets and arrows are math signs. Each real name is in the list under the tool.

Frames for a name

A tile in Name frames and dividers that holds the word name is a frame: paste it, then type your own name over the word. The others are dividers, built only from symbols on this page.

Questions and answers

Is there a sci fi emoji?

No emoji is named for science fiction. CLDR, Unicode's list of search words, files robot under one emoji, Robot, ufo under three, Alien, Alien monster and Flying saucer, and space under 23, among them Rocket, Satellite and Milky way.

Are there futuristic emojis?

CLDR files future under a single emoji, Crystal ball. The other futuristic emojis here are this page's pick: Mechanical arm and Mechanical leg, which CLDR files under prosthetic, a flying saucer, fast trains, a city at night and control knobs.

Why does a futuristic symbol show as an empty box?

A device draws a character only if one of its fonts covers it. The oldest symbols here date from Unicode 1.1; the two power signs are the newest, from Unicode 9.0, and need a font at least that new.

How this list was compiled: Built on 2026-10-03 from Unicode's own files, each read that day. Every character that is not an emoji was fetched by its name from UnicodeData.txt, version 18.0.0 (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/UnicodeData.txt); its block is from Blocks.txt and the Unicode version that added it from DerivedAge.txt (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/Blocks.txt, https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/DerivedAge.txt); other names quoted are from NamesList.txt 18.0.0 (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/NamesList.txt). What a shape looks like is this site's own description. The emoji, their names, code points and Emoji versions are from the Unicode emoji list, version 18.0 (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/emoji/emoji-test.txt), and their search words from the CLDR English annotations (https://github.com/unicode-org/cldr/blob/main/common/annotations/en.xml and https://github.com/unicode-org/cldr/blob/main/common/annotationsDerived/en.xml), with a few of CLDR's words left out: CLDR files no emoji under futuristic, one under future, one under robot, three under ufo and 23 under space. Unicode data is used under the Unicode terms of use (https://www.unicode.org/terms_of_use.html). Each character was drawn with a computer's system fonts before it was kept. Which symbols and emoji look futuristic is this site's own choice; the name frames, the dividers and the styled words are its own work. Licence: own work
