Some more future gazing

I found a few interesting videos on the BBC Technology pages showcasing developments in retail, living, dining etc for the near future. Most of them seem to be developed by German's, oh well maybe its the technology equivalent of the towel on the deck chair.

Here are the links to 4 short videos (sadly the BBC hasn't quite grasped the concept of allowing people to embed their videos yet but perhaps that is in another video called the BBc of the Future - let's hope so).

• Inside the house of the future(04.54)
• Germany's 'robot' restaurant(01.49)
• Supermarket of the future(02.56)
• Germans create 'future hotel' (03.51)
