This video walks you through Microsoft's Envisioning Center in Washington, United States. Have a look at what our homes and offices might look like in 5 to 10 years time:
You are at home cooking the family dinner and an interactive chef on the big screen in your kitchen tells you what ingredients you need and how to make the recipe.
Take a sketch of something you’ve been drawing on your tablet, and swipe it over to a large digital screen that doubles as your work surface. Then get that sketch to appear on a huge wall screen so that you and a co-worker halfway around the world can work on the sketch simultaneously.
In the living room, more screens demonstrate how a grandmother in another state can read an interactive story with a grandchild. The grandmother is on one screen, and scenes from the story — which can change, depending on what actions the child takes — appear on the other screen.
