Hello...your house is calling!

At the office, you connect to your mail account and ...the fridge wrote you: "I need to be replenished - no more milk". Again, your phone is ringing, but, on the other side, there is no the usual boring oppressive client, but... "I have two letters for you today" -  the postman at your house entrance is kindly answering you...But not only, is your energy bill skyrocketing? Are you always wondering if all the windows are closed?
Domotics is the solution! Don't you believe?  Take a look at this video!

...not really what the writer of "Here the future of house and cities" imagined in 1979, but we are almost there...

If you are excited and want to look more in details to current packages available in the market, and understand which features are usually integrated (and if you can connect the system to  your I-phone), take a look at Home Automation Systems Review.
Buying a domotic system, you are going to contribute to the worldwide growth of this business, expected to be more than 16% per year till 2016.
So Domotics is not only going to offer the most effective interaction with our houses, but it will enhance the lives of millions of people. Our society is aging -  by 2030 there will be 9 million Americans older than 85 - and they need a support for their daily routine. Home robotics, security systems, automatic emergency assistance 24H are out there...

Once again the Human Interface is not only becoming "how" we communicate to the machines, but the technology itself is revolutionizing our lives, guaranteeing safety and independence! But also taking care of what we hate the most...

...cleaning!!!

...communication evolution


…created for calls, developed in multi-connection platforms with the most advanced computing abilities and application functionalities: here the SMARTPHONE.                          
A research published at ASYMCO.COM is forecasting that, within five years, all phones will be smartphones. But how will smartphones and their usage evolve? “Human interface” is definitely playing a key role in defining how it will look like…                                             
 Microsoft is currently working on the development of a new interface for Windows 8 phones, based on gesture recognition and advanced control movement (VR-Zone.com).         
Other companies (such as Hillcrest Labs) are moving in the same direction to create the “next-generation user experience” through multi-platforms devices for gesture recognition (infohq.com)                                                                                                                   
As reported in the article at ECNMAG.COM, this new smartphone generation will modify our habits and allow us to complete a larger number of tasks.                                                      
But do you really believe that the final result of this evolutionary process will be a “totally humanized phone”, as proposed by the following Nokia research - HumanForm, able not only to capture visible movements, but also to understand and translate feelings through emotional interactions?
