MarcoMC Tech, Cuisine, Traveling…my hobbies, my life

This is a collection of posts and links about gadgets and projects that I would like to see installed or implemented in my ideal house.
I’m currently experimenting with a RaspberryPi and the Parrot PictureFrame to understand and take inspiration about possible uses in house automation.

My personal ideas:

• Use the refrigerator door as a big touch screen to control the house and check personal information, as well to keep track of the food purchases and consumes.
• Audio system under the shower for shower singing.
• Audio/Video streaming to follow you in all the rooms of the house, will use a token to let the house understand who and where is moving (that could be the cell phone).
  I can watch a show while you do your cleanings or while you are in the bathroom.
• The bathroom mirror to be a touchscreen where to have a look at your personal information, radio and news
