Wouldn't this be the type of thing that Ocean Blue were
talking about when they mentioned their chip set they were
going to design a couple of years ago?
If we had a Government that was into advancing innovations
they would be supporting people like Ocean Blue. (Oops,
sorry-no politics)

Hi Dave.
There are some internet connected washing machines out there
on the market,
you can connect them to your WiFi network and through either
a home network
or internet connection control them. They aren't cheap
mind. It does beg
the question though, why are manufacturers pumping out ever
more
sophisticated note takers and other assistive technology
gadgets yet no one
has actually produced a talking washing machine and so on?
I'd personally
love to see a prototype control panel which can be fitted to
machines which
provides full access to the vast array of features present
on today's modern
kitchen tech? There are already touch screen washers and
cookers on the
market and who knows what the future holds, but I doubt it
will be very
blind friendly.
All the best, Ibrahim.
