London: It may look to
be coming straight from some science fiction but high-tech toilets
that can analyse your poo, 3D contact lenses and doors that open
just as you look at them would become a reality in future.
According to top futurologist Frank Shaw from Britain's Centre for
Future Studies, these things could all materialise within 15
years, the Sun reported Thursday.
Shaw has revealed a list of changes to our homes which he believes
will be common place by 2027, transforming our lives for the
better.
The study was commissioned to celebrate the 15th anniversary of
the creation of Broadband firm Plusnet.
The firm's Chief Executive Officer Jamie Ford said: "The next 15
years will see an exciting transformation take place, where we
integrate 'smart devices' into the home, and the net becomes much
more about rich services."
