Sign into your accountFuture Tech: Tools that will change our work and our homes
December 20 2017
Imagine this: It's the day before Christmas 2025 as you dash into the Amazon Mall for a last-minute gift and Pepper is there to greet you. Pepper immediately knows you are anxious. Pepper patiently and calmly answers your questions, directing you to the right place for that perfect gift. Pepper is a lifesaver and made you feel great. Pepper is also a robot from Softbank that can read and respond to human emotion.
Now, the Amazon Mall may be fiction—although Amazon has started to open brick-and-mortar stores—but Pepper is not. Pepper just went to work at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Las Vegas recently.
In this article, we explore how the future is now, because many of the tech tools that will change our work and our homes tomorrow are already in production today. They're just not widely available yet.
