Something I want to see in the future. Internet Connected Appliances & other household items. I love the idea of Internet connected Thermostat, lets take this idea further. I want to be able to get off work, tap and app on my phone and see what type of groceries are in my Fridge. So I can then determine if I need to pickup say Milk before I make it home.
I want to see from my phone if the Microwave or Oven is running. Maybe your cooking something in the oven but your the only one at home and need to run to the grocery store for that one last ingredient? Wouldn't it be nice to monitor your oven and not worry about burning the house down and being able to run off to get that one last ingredient? What about watering the lawn? Maybe its going to be a hot day, and your at work. Click a button on your App to start the water sprinkler in your yard? Maybe resurrect those self propelled lawn mowers have them WiFi enabled and report status back to you on how much of the lawn is mowed? The skys the limit, but none of these areas have been touched? It seems the mantra for the next decade at least is to make things simpler, so lets move past the normal technology focus and get on with the other items we could improve with the help of smart technology.
