The Smart Home Moves Slowly

Daniel Cooper looks at appliances in the smart home.  We can dole out music and light relatively easily as on demand and intelligent information activity.  I have a dozen such devices in my home. But the Washers, Dryers, Frigs, Oven, Ironing Boards, Food prep stations, Bars and related task orientations are are still hard to do robotically.  And even those that make a valiant attempt in doing their job by managing the information required, are still very expensive.  And because they are expensive, they are replaced at decade long cycles.   It does not seemed to have changed much since the days of our smart home labs.  Good thoughts below.

Changes are coming.
