The Disney Innoventions Dream Home

Microsoft has collaborated with Disney and put together the ”Innoventions Dream Home” which opened its doors in June 2008. The cool thing about it is that you can easily get that kind of technology into your homes today - such as the Windows Media Center, some Xbox 360’s, Surface, the Zune, Digital frames all integrated together. There are a few new toys still not available in the market, but you get an idea of what’s coming.

Girls will love the virtual mirror - which I have seen somewhere on the web a few years back as an idea for some shops. The guys will love everything else! I think the Virtual Wall is exciting, and the kitchen looks like a great place to be! I am already planning a few changes to do around here, though not as far as the dream home has taken it, some natural light is always good!

Laura Foy, from Microsoft’s Channel 10, takes us on a great tour inside the house, check out the video:

Very interesting! I have been so into technology lately that I realize sometimes you have to keep it a little dumb to make sure it doesn’t break!

@Marzouq, that is so true, I could’nt agree more. I’ve been cooling it down myself lately, balancing things.

It’s exciting until your mirror says things like, “You haven’t updated your virus definitions, and you may be at risk!” XD
