This is 50+ years away imo. Half the stuff will not happen for a long time.

some of this stuff is way too unrealistic for now, it'll be pretty long before this comes into play.
It does however look rather sexy.
Bill Gates' house apparently has a computer taking care of everything including lighting/music/temperature and adjusts as you move from room to room (since 1998 or something) so who know, this could happen soon.

You can get this sort of stuff yourself these days as well. Not quite as advanced as moving from room to room (since those kinds of sensors and software to interpret your movements and act accordingly is hard to get right). It'll be cool to see the future unfold.

Yeah, but it's still not normal, and if it's true that he's had it since 1998 or whatever, that means they probably have stuff in development which they're just not releasing yet.
Apparently it works with a small pin you attach to your clothing and it's tracked by the computer and yeah...

Technology always develops exponentially, i mean just look at phones, we went from single core 600 MHz being top of the line to dual core 1.5GHz in just 2 years. The processing ability of most of the technology in the video is well within reach soon if not already, the only main problem are the glass displays and the integration of all the different aspects of the software/hardware.
