The Future of Sleep: Interactive Dreaming, Virtual Love-Making and Health Monitoring
(firmenpresse) - LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM -- (Marketwire) -- 09/01/11 -- The technologically advanced dreamworld of the Hollywood blockbuster 'Inception' will become an everyday reality in less than twenty years, according to a new report.
Award-winning futurologist Ian Pearson spent six months investigating the impact of new technology on sleep and how the hotel room of the future will respond to helping us sleep better in 2030.
According to the 'Travelodge Future of Sleep' study, interactive dreaming, virtual love-making, sleep studying and health monitoring will transform the way we sleep during the next two decades. The hotel room will use cutting-edge technology to monitor customers' energy levels, physical well-being and mood, fulfilling each guest's needs like a personal concierge, lifestyle coach, fitness trainer, psychologist and doctor to ensure a good night's sleep.
Futurologist Ian Pearson explains: 'On average we spend a third of our lives asleep and this will still be the case in 2030. Technology will not change our basic need to slumber but it will certainly enhance the experience, enabling sleep to have much greater value than merely rest and recuperation.'
