I foresee a very lazy world by the turn of this century. Every new invention, every technological advance is aimed at reducing our work, our physical movements.
For example, the telecommunication industry is hell bent to save us from using our healthy limbs-the gift from our creator.
Hands free mobile sets that portrayed everyone on the street as a mad man;
Blue tooth technology that makes us think the world is producing more and more deaf people.
Now this news; very hot news really.
You wink to start your washing machine
You stick out your tongue like a snake to operate your iPod.
The technology behind this is based on a set of infrared sensors that measure tiny movements inside the ear that result from different facial expressions.
The techno geeks (self styled of course) call this “Mimi Switch” or “Ear Switch” — is connected to a micro-computer that can control electronic devices, essentially making it a hands-free remote control for anything.
What else can you do?
Turn on your room lights and electric fans.
Turn on your washing machine.
