I was asked to provide an article for this now defunct magazine. Together with Tiffany Bruce and the PR department, we came up with a rather corporate version.
"Today's busy families need solutions. With soccer games, dance rehearsals and late business meetings, parents and kids are on the go now more than ever. There are always a million things to do and never enough time to do them. Fast food and convenience meals supercede nutritious fresh foods and home cooking, and the quality time families plan to spending together is often squeezed out by work, extra-curricular activities and chores." "People will see how technology, backed with the power of the Internet, can have a positive impact on the way they work, play and live. Only then will consumers truly realize that these products can provide them with the freedom, control and peace of mind that they have been seeking in their own homes. Eventually, homes will monitor, predict and adjust to stimuli, human activities and environmental conditions. Arrays of sensors will feed home agents that learn habits, preferences and lifestyles, thus acting on our behalf as personal concierges." The full article is available for download as PDF. |
