What would it mean if you could turn Alexa or Siri into a home operating system?
In these episodes of Predicting our Futures, Andrew Weinreich shares his predictions about smart homes. He believes that your future home will be able to recognise your facial expression or tone, and understand when you have had a rough day at work. In response, relaxing music will start playing and the thermostat will be switched so that you can have a hot shower. Saying “good morning” will be followed by your blinds automatically opening, your coffee boiling and your music playing.
Future homes will also take care of you. Sensors on your prescription will notify the pharmacy when you’re running out and order the next bottle for you.
