The future is coming faster and faster. Anigmo is introducing a touchless light switch/dimmer switch next month. Wave your hand or arm infront of the panel once to turn lights on and once again to turn lights off. Hold your hand in front of the panel to dim the lights.
While I imagine these units will be costly it represents the future of lightswitches in schools, offices, hotels in addition to homes. As the public becomes more and more concerned with surface contamination and the spred of flu viruses, bacteria and germs, touchless solutions will flourish.
In the Disabled Hands home or office a touchless light control system is useful to those with reduced fine motor skills necessary to operate conventional switches and dimmers.
If you are building or renovating a home for an aging parent or a retirement home consider installing this kind of light control.

The past is gone and static. Nothing we can do will change it. The future is before us and dynamic. Everything we do will affect it.

Hi everyone, good evening, my name is Carl, I share my views with you. The phone is a very interesting step forward, in fact I did not imagine how my life would have been without the phone, is a very simple science, yet a few decades ago was something that had been considered crazy. I am very grateful for sharing with you my opinion.

Wow. I would never have the smarts to look stuff like this up.
But..I do like the Twilight series and..as a parent...I can't say that the abstinence until marraige message is unwelcomed! (If that was even the reason for the books...somehow with the interviews I've seen and read I'm not thinking that was fully on her mind when Stephanie Meyer wrote the series).
Very cool info, though!
