TVs Could Control Your Home

Skynet is coming! Skynet is coming!...ok maybe not that dramatic, but this is kind of weird in my opinion. The developments in technology never cease to amaze me, but this is nuts.
Samsung already has a TV with a built in camera to recognize movement, and voice.
Samsung may be partnering with a startup company called VTouch to bring complete control of every connected electronic device in your home, with a "snap of a finger" per-say. The TV will come with a built in camera that can track hand, finger, and even eye gestures. Even to the extent that you can point at objects that aren't even on your TV screen to control them. In my opinion, this is kind of creepy...having a camera watch your every move and reacting to your gestures and facial expressions.

The system will in essence be able to control TV's, lights, stereo equipment, and any other connected smart devices. It hasn't been discussed yet if this will control ALL devices or be limited to Samsung, but coming from the number one HDTV maker, it's a pretty tempting offer.
