In the western world people have embraced technology ever since electricity become widely available.Everything from electric door bells to home computers were readily embraced in the hope they would make people’s lives easier and give people more free time. For the most part this is true. Things such as tumble dryers and microwaves have dramatically reduced household labour, but because all this technology relies on wires, they have always had a limit on how much freedom they can provide.
Everyone knows how much effort is involved in hooking up your lawnmower to the mains and trying to find an extension cable that will reach to the end of the garden and not give you a thousand volt shock if you mow over it. We have always been chained either to one part of the house or to the house itself, but this is all changing with the freedom that wireless technology gifts us.
Previously, if you wanted to listen to music in your home you would have to sit in the room with the stereo, or buy one for each room. Nowadays you can have one central unit and wireless speakers placed in each room allowing you to hear your tunes wherever you wonder. Wireless internet means you can roam your house freely on your laptop and you can even buy a wireless alarm clock which connects to your stereo wirelessly and blasts out your favorite ABBA song (or whatever you like) to wake you up in the morning.
Wireless technology has come on leaps and bounds over the last 10 years, with refinements and advancements making it more useful and user-friendly than ever. The level of freedom provided by these technologies will continue to increase in future, with a predicted 75% of technology in homes being wireless by the year 2025.
