Much of what is going on in there has been imagined before – one notable example from my past was the Disney’s Epcot ride Horizons (48 seconds into the vid)

I also had my own ideas of what I wanted to build into my own home when I was all growed up. Things like LCD panels to access a home intranet crammed with recepies and stream audio and video to it while I cook and/or eat. PC’s with webcams on them so I had a home video calling system.. you know the insane things you believe are fantastic ideas.. but then realise they’ll just get ignored and never used.

One thing strikes me tho, what if you buy a non-samsung device thrown into the mix? I hope that room of the future(tm) makes good use of open protocols otherwise it could be entirely possible to catch yourself uttering “this damn washing machine isn’t compatable with the fridge!”..

And the robotic hoover?
