The Smart garage of the future will have many things for instance; as you walk towards the garage door it will open like the grocery store doors. If you take out the keys, your car the door of your car will open. As you get in the car it will start automatically and when sit down the hydrogen maker box will disconnect from your hydrogen cell car’s gas tank, which has been making fuel all day. The garage door light will be set based on the ambient light outside and in the garage and will adjust accordingly.
As you back out of the garage the garage door will close automatically using a sonar sensor. As the garage closes it will then turn into a giant mirror so you can see behind you as you back out. Then as you leave the driveway the garage door will turn back to match the color of the House.
How long until all this technology is available? Well all this technology is available right now. It will only take a few entrepreneurs to put it all together and it will be available to the public probably within five to 10 years. They will probably need a little Venture Capital Funding and some shrewd deal making talents to establish strategic partners.
What else will the Smart garage of the future have? Lots of things and some we may not have even considered. I bet that when you sit in your car it will ask you where you are going and when you state where you're going and it will pull up a GPS and the garage will be hooked to the Internet to check for weather, detours, construction, traffic and road conditions, which will all be WiFi to your car and put into the GPS as you back out.
Yes, your car and garage will be net-centric’ed together. If you drink too much you will just say drive me home and it will put you in your garage detox unit. The future will be great and it is almost here. Please consider all this in 2006.
