Toaster also has thoughts, emotions?

Smart appliances, such as a grill, express their feelings through Twitter and collude with the refrigerator. This is not a modern fairy tale, but a real test.

Interactive designer Simone Rebaudengo, currently working for Frog, a company based in Munich, Germany, is focusing on research related to the relationship between connected devices.

Last year, the project "Addicted Products" by Rebaudengo in collaboration with Haque Design + Research in London created a system of thoughtful toaster . Although still in beta, this project recently won the Interaction Awards 2014 - the Interactive Design Award by the Interactive Design Association IxDA.

In his tests, Rebaudengo programmed the grilles to be baked. These machines are able to automatically express their emotions through Twitter. It can be said that they have the same behavior as being "addicted" to baking: they are happy to have the bread to bake, to piss when other baking machines are baked more, and ask the refrigerator Remind people to buy more bread. Sad grills can also kill themselves.

"Although most users probably do not want to own a baking machine like this, this design can be easily applied to connecting household appliances to a complete system." , said journalist Adele Peters on FastCo.Exist.

This idea can help people save more on the use of everyday items. A device can automatically tell that it has not been used for a long time, so that we can save energy and costs by reusing or selling them instead of keeping them useless.
