Your home of the Future One of the places in your home where you might feel like George Jetson is the bathroom. It will have a toilet that can test urine for sugar levels,take your blood pressure and weigh you. All that information can then be uploaded to your doctor. Even the bathroom staple of soap will get an upgrade, futurists say. It will have sunscreen in it, which will stick to your skin. The future of Food The kitchen is often the center of a home and it has the most potential for futuristic changes. For example, a Web-enabled refrigerator will be able to talk to the manufacturer when a part wears out, so it can order a replacement without you ever knowing something was wrong. Your fridge will also be able to tell you what’s inside it,making creating a grocery list much easier. Think about all the energy you’ll save not standing in front of an open refrigerator to determine what’s inside. Once you get the food you want from your-tech fridge,your counter top will be able to suggest recipes based on what you put there.How is this possible? Tiny, inexpensive computer chips called RFIDs, or radio frequency identification chips, will be attached to every product in your house. The refrigerator will read the chips, and will even be able to tell you when the milk has gone bad. The counter will be able to make dinner suggestions. Your washing machine will know how to wash your favorite linen skirt. And you will be able to call your oven from your cell phone to tell it when to start cooking the pot roast. 1.
