Video-on-demand service that Samir subscribes to holds over 25,000 movies, from black-and-white classics to latest interactive blockbusters

Interactive Movie: As trying to climb a mountain, a question: which way to go? [north or east?]

Dinning Area: Samir’s father is reading a personalized multimedia newspaper sitting in the dinning area

On-line Shopping: Samir’s mother, while cooking, realized cooking oil is finished. Samir puts the movie on hold and concentrates on shopping.

A window on the screen shows a range of olive oil bottles, each labelled with price, origin and dietary information. Samir selects one with handset and a voice says, “you have selected on 2 kg of Oliva. The price is Rs.600. The amount has been debited from your account.”

“Flat Screen” Shopping: Samir could have gone to a virtual supermarket where he can walk up and down the aisle as in a real store, but he decided today on “flat screen” shopping.

Home Office: In her office, Gouri, Samir’s wife, is involved in a virtual conference with her colleagues in Paris and Tokyo.

Gouri’s computer is linked directly into a fiber-optic broadband network, with enough bandwidth to handle her virtual conference.

She wears a pair of virtual reality glasses, connected by infrared link to her computer. Through her headset she sees a virtual meeting with several people sitting around a table. Documents exchanged are stored in the computer.

Complete realization of Teleworking.

On-line Information: Daughter Tanisha is using a computer linked to an online database to help her with her homework.

Virtual Reality Game: Son Sankalp is playing a virtual reality game in his room.

Xbox Live—He played yesterday a car-racing game with his cousin in London.

Today, he is wearing virtual reality gear. He is holding a stick, which he is prodding towards window. In his virtual world, he is a medieval knight. Taking part in a “global Knights of the Round Table” tournament.

Controller can represent a lance, sword.. depending on game.
