Holy futuristic dwellings, Batman! The picture above might look like modern art, but it’s actually a house. The Compact, Hyper-Insulated Prototype (CHIP) Solar House uses an Xbox Kinect and a 3D camera to switch off energy consuming devices with a mere wave of the hand.
Unfortunately, your own energy efficient house of tomorrow will cost you a pretty penny. The prototype cost over $1 million to build and its builders estimate that replicating it for a consumer would still cost $300,000.
