In the future, retirees will have at their disposal a multitude of technological devices that will help them stay healthy, live as long as possible in their homes and stay connected. The older people get, the more they have to deal with an imperceptible decline. Numerous applications and devices are emerging to help seniors monitor their health and call for help when needed. In the future, applications will record the physical data to be able to transmit to his doctor. Clothes, too, will become more and more sophisticated. They will detect some anomalies such as an attack for example. Robots could also replace home-based nurses in the future.
Google has just filed a patent with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) to create a teddy bear with human behaviors. The connected bear of Google will be full of gadgets of all kinds: integrated microphones in the ears, speakers in the mouth, and cameras instead of eyes. Google hopes to create a toy that can interact with the child and be able to understand, interpret and respond to their requests. This hyper connected object will also be able to make gestures to manifest itself. The little bear will also be equipped with WiFi and Bluetooth so that he can interact with other connected objects in the house. The stuffed toy can for example replace your remote control, for example by launching a film or a DVD directly by voice command.The toy will be controlled by the voice of the child and will start with a phrase equivalent to the traditional "OK Google". The company says it will make every effort to make the stuffy attractive for the child so he wants to cuddle.
