The Future. At the STAYDREAM exhibition at the NYCxDESIGN festival, Sony showed off some potential ways it hopes to hide tech in your home and beyond. These interactive smart devices — all hinging on the idea of creating “invisible technology” — could make the tactile aspects of any room a new form of interactive entertainment.
Lo-fi, hi-techAccording to Fast Company, some of Sony’s invisible tech includes…
An upholstered room divider that has speakers built into them
A wallpaper that has an overlaid video projection on it, which is controlled by sliding a connected mug
An interactive glass screen that acts as a giant screensaver in your home but becomes clear when you approach it
By partnering with the furniture manufacturer Stellar Works, Sony plans to make these prototype products a reality. The company hopes to build them at a cost-conscious price point sometime in the next six months.
Admittedly, Sony says that these offerings may be better suited for hotels than the next smart home, which could make your next resort lobby experience something unique.
