In 2000 my dad had a phone modem on a windows machine that ran one of the first home assistants called HAL which would use RF to trigger x10 home relays to comtrol lights, garage doors, and even the sprinkler system. The way to use the voice assistant was to pick up the home phone or call the home number and type in a number code to access the computer options. It would even control the cable using programmed rs232 to infrared.
20 minutes and not a single mention of the amazing Disney Original Movie "Smart House?" - that's the home I've always been looking forward to in the future
Enjoying seeing Marques have so much fun in the acted-out scenes. Working with comedians and actors in the 'Dope or Nope' segments was a brilliant choice. Nice!
Have you heard about SmartKey (SKey)? The first blockchain connector with the world of physical items (IOT). A way better when comparing to Bluetooth standard or USB-C standard. The company is just about to announce the biggest implamantation of their tech with a world famous Chinese corporation.
SmartKey will be use to private smart homes and smart cities too. I'm interested in this technology. It's something new. Many people don't know blockchain technology and they don't know that blockchain is more safety than virtual cloud. I think that's future.
It is already used for enabling access to private parcels for emergency services in Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship in Poland. Very good project bringing next level technology to reality.

Fantastic video, as usual. 99% of what I want in "home automation" I get from programmable WiFi wall plugs (currently $5 each and incredibly programmable) and light switches. Once set up I hardly even use the app though voice control via Alexa/Home is somewhat useful. The piece of home automation I want most is electric windows. Still, the real solution to our energy/pollution problems will be near zero-pollution and DECENTRALIZED, production of electricity.

IoT: Smart-outlets are great if you forget to turn off appliances, fans, etc.. I like that it reboots my internet modem daily in the middle of the night. Smart-lights are useful for lighting the home to make it look occupied and just remote control from across the room. Precautions: I never use smart devices that are cameras.

Considering that I am the unprettiest UA-camr worldwide, it is really incredible. Yet you did not mention it at all. I am VERY disappointed, dear ab
Marques I wish you know what impact your videos have on people like us because your videos are the reason that I get up every morning and push myself towards learning more and being better. and you should know that we appreciate the effort you put into all of your videos.
me after seeing the video:- me: mom i want Alexa for my birthday mom: but we have Alexa at home Alexa at home: Can't reach anything at the moment, please do not try again later.
@marques some of the original remote controls for televisions used high frequency soundwaves to control the TV vs the more modern infrared and then radio waves. I remember when my brother and I figured that lifting and dropping a chain would sometimes inadvertently make the high frequency sound that would change the channel. I'm a Gen X guy and technologist and grew up with all this first level innovation and now have an extremely smart rigged home. Love this retro tech series. There are some great infographics out there that show how science fiction ideation ended up inspiring inventors to build everything they imagined.
Really entertaining video, thanks!! Another reason why some of this older tech is still relevant today is that it isn't connected to the internet. With an X10 system like HomeMinder or Powerhouse you can remotely control almost every device in your house, including light switches and power outlets, and even change the temperature (similar to the Nest thermostat), all individually scheduled per day of the week/month. If you were away from home you could call your house and control your lights/stereo/furnace remotely. For people who aren't interested in the "internet of things," or who are leery of things like Alexa, this technology is still relevant and useful today.
I bought in heavily to the X-10 system in the 1990s and 2000s. You really didn't give it due credit. While there was no internet connectivity, it was programmable, had timer randomization, and did lots of things we take for granted now like automatically turn on lights when you enter a room and do several things with one button press. There were home and away modes and you could easily load new programs and settings by connecting it to your computer. Programming was simple, straightforward, quick and reliable. It could play a chime when somebody entered your driveway or came to your front door. There were security and alarm features as well. It worked really well for a long time. The real cause of X-10's downfall was changing FCC regulations and the proliferation of electronics that caused interference that resulted in reliability problems. It was basically the same thing that happened to cordless landline phones. They worked well in the early years, but as more and more radio frequency tech came out it caused too much interferencance and range issues. Those issues were solved with digital tech, but by that time mobile phones were already taking over, so the cordless phones never recovered the market penetration they once had. By the time X-10 was on its way out, Wi-Fi was common and other products that were not so susceptible to interference (X-10 used RF as well as power line communication) and had Internet connectivity were on the market. I have to say that X-10 was far, FAR more user-friendly than Logitech's Harmony remotes. Those require proprietary software that only runs on Windows and IE and is extremly complicated, frustrating and unreliable. Once you get them set up they work fairly well, but getting to that point is a royal PITA.
Story Time. This is an illustration of how fast technology has moved. In 2014 I was a home integration specialist. Essentially salesperson that sold smart home and home theaters to wealthy people in Rancho Santa Fe, Cali. We used the Savant System. We also sold a box and subscription service...this should blow your mind...so our clients could screen current movies in their home theaters....and they signed a contract where they couldn't turn it into a small theater. Strictly home use. One deal...145k . Home Theater with 4k projection. Lutron Lights, sec cam, temp controlled rack room. Outdoor speakers. My commision? Average yearly income for Americans. You can order all of this from Amazon now. Your lighting will be better...and your cams will be better. The only thing that has yet to come is a cool feature of the Savant system. Imagjne a picture of your living room. Imagine lights on end tables. You could be at work and touch the iPad (what we used for remotes) on the pic of the lights and turn them on...same with TV and HVAC and sound system. But all the money for features that the average person can afford now...12k was charged for our programmer to program the system. Anyway....7 years later and all that money was waisted.....except for the family's proscenium....we had a master carpenter and interor designer..that shit was beautiful.

Just a quick question from a European that actually uses the Celsius scale: who would like to have 30 degree Celsius in the bedroom?? For the Americans out there: that‘s 86 degree Fahrenheit. It‘s like really hot
Not me! Where I live, houses aren’t typically air conditioned, unless you’re very rich, although many have heat pumps which can act as AC if you want. But even in winter I don’t heat any part of the house to that temperature, it’s 18 degrees at a maximum. In fact, I haven’t run any kind of hearing in a long time ‘cause I like being colder
that's not hot at all LOL . Europeans have bad genes if they think 86 deg is hot. Here in Cali summer days are in the low 90's and we have a larger GDP than almost every euro nation AKA we work in this heat /
@@ThreeDaysOfDan yeah summer here sees us in the high 30's C for several months too, but I still would never deliberately heat/cool my house to 30C/86F, that's way too hot. Hell, I lived in West Australia for a while and summer was mid 40s C all day, rarely below 30C at night and you can be damn sure we kept it a lot cooler inside! We even had big shutters, like hurricane shutters I guess, to keep the sun out when it got really had. Once was in an open cast mine in January and their thermometer was reading 52C, which was truly awful and nearly made me faint. Cold is better!
The segway at the very end from the current video to the wearable tech video, just by gesture, suggestive language strategically followed by the UA-cam pop up by Marques, is the well thought out content execution I'm here for 🙌🏾. Enjoying your content from South Africa 🇿🇦.
Any time bill gates talk, the energy he brings gives me the impression, that any question you ask him, he thought up and prepared for 10 years ago. He just accesses a file in his brain and gives it with the confidence that experience can bring.
I think a good source of inspiration for what a smart home should do would be to look at how houses of the wealthy back in the Victorian era were managed with different butlers and servants. So a smart house should probably at most be able to make decisions for you like what food you should eat, manage itself, manage your schedule and calendar, order food to prepare for you, talk with you and have a personality of it's own, and work to minimize the amount of tasks you fulfill yourself while minimizing the cost of operating and maintaining the house.

Was thinking about that movie the whole time!!
Marques I wish you know what impact your videos have on people like us because your videos are the reason that I get up every morning and push myself towards learning more and being better. and you should know that we appreciate the effort you put into all of your videos.
me after seeing the video:-
me: mom i want Alexa for my birthday
mom: but we have Alexa at home
Alexa at home: Can't reach anything at the moment, please do not try again later.
😂
Unfunny
CHECK OUT A52 VS FLAGSHIPS COMPARISON.
@@phonefnatic4294 k I will
Alexa at home: it's just your sister named alexa that's sick and tired of the alexa jokes
He chats with Bill Gates like they are high school buddies. I love the passion he puts into creating his contents!
The way he presents the video is phenomenal ❤️🖤❤️
I KNOW IT AMAZING

@marques some of the original remote controls for televisions used high frequency soundwaves to control the TV vs the more modern infrared and then radio waves. I remember when my brother and I figured that lifting and dropping a chain would sometimes inadvertently make the high frequency sound that would change the channel. I'm a Gen X guy and technologist and grew up with all this first level innovation and now have an extremely smart rigged home. Love this retro tech series. There are some great infographics out there that show how science fiction ideation ended up inspiring inventors to build everything they imagined.

Let’s go the one I have been waiting for
I KNOW BEEN WAITING FOR NEXT VIDEO ALL DAY
@@hax35507 na kid why you chatting
this should be a tv show! very high quality content for a youtube video
Idk why the ppl even have to wait for mkbhd to say check under your seat if I were there i would just see whats under my chair the first thing I do
Anyone else finding the retro, “dope or nope” waaay more interesting than the same with the latest tech?

Hey 👋
Imagine being intimate with your S/O and whole house becomes haunted. *Claps away*
Exactly what i thought, ppl would know who's clapping without hands
Imagine having a S/O :(
Love how young Marques in the early 80's is just casually wearing an Apple Watch.
i like how he can just casually just talk to bill gates like it's nothing
Wasn't casually tho.
These Retro Tech's are great and leave the mind pondering on a healthy future. As always, you're a beast MKB

When you already fake laughed but they are still talking
When I was a child, my mom gave an old TV remote which I used as a phone😙

I love how Marques is talking to Bill Gates using an Apple Macbook! 😂
Why? What is wrong with the gates and apple?
@@matrixnepal4282 Gates is the Founder of Windows
Well Windows sucks
Just ran into this in 2024. This was great! The editing is top notch! Comes off like it’s a real documentary or special on Hulu or Netflix.
Really entertaining video, thanks!! Another reason why some of this older tech is still relevant today is that it isn't connected to the internet. With an X10 system like HomeMinder or Powerhouse you can remotely control almost every device in your house, including light switches and power outlets, and even change the temperature (similar to the Nest thermostat), all individually scheduled per day of the week/month. If you were away from home you could call your house and control your lights/stereo/furnace remotely. For people who aren't interested in the "internet of things," or who are leery of things like Alexa, this technology is still relevant and useful today.

lol ikr
I'm just happy I can set my $20 coffee maker to turn on 10 mins before I wake up
The fact that his regular video quality is better than the UA-cam originals is a huge flex.
I bought in heavily to the X-10 system in the 1990s and 2000s. You really didn't give it due credit. While there was no internet connectivity, it was programmable, had timer randomization, and did lots of things we take for granted now like automatically turn on lights when you enter a room and do several things with one button press. There were home and away modes and you could easily load new programs and settings by connecting it to your computer. Programming was simple, straightforward, quick and reliable. It could play a chime when somebody entered your driveway or came to your front door. There were security and alarm features as well. It worked really well for a long time.
The real cause of X-10's downfall was changing FCC regulations and the proliferation of electronics that caused interference that resulted in reliability problems. It was basically the same thing that happened to cordless landline phones. They worked well in the early years, but as more and more radio frequency tech came out it caused too much interferencance and range issues. Those issues were solved with digital tech, but by that time mobile phones were already taking over, so the cordless phones never recovered the market penetration they once had. By the time X-10 was on its way out, Wi-Fi was common and other products that were not so susceptible to interference (X-10 used RF as well as power line communication) and had Internet connectivity were on the market.
I have to say that X-10 was far, FAR more user-friendly than Logitech's Harmony remotes. Those require proprietary software that only runs on Windows and IE and is extremly complicated, frustrating and unreliable. Once you get them set up they work fairly well, but getting to that point is a royal PITA.
*Thanks youtube for making this masterpiece free,very cool*
lol
80's Marques took me back to my childhood lol
You talk to Bill Gates as if you've been mates for years lol That's awesome.
Story Time.
This is an illustration of how fast technology has moved. In 2014 I was a home integration specialist. Essentially salesperson that sold smart home and home theaters to wealthy people in Rancho Santa Fe, Cali.
We used the Savant System. We also sold a box and subscription service...this should blow your mind...so our clients could screen current movies in their home theaters....and they signed a contract where they couldn't turn it into a small theater. Strictly home use.
One deal...145k . Home Theater with 4k projection. Lutron Lights, sec cam, temp controlled rack room. Outdoor speakers.
My commision? Average yearly income for Americans.
You can order all of this from Amazon now. Your lighting will be better...and your cams will be better.
The only thing that has yet to come is a cool feature of the Savant system. Imagjne a picture of your living room. Imagine lights on end tables. You could be at work and touch the iPad (what we used for remotes) on the pic of the lights and turn them on...same with TV and HVAC and sound system.
But all the money for features that the average person can afford now...12k was charged for our programmer to program the system. Anyway....7 years later and all that money was waisted.....except for the family's proscenium....we had a master carpenter and interor designer..that shit was beautiful.
I just love the voice and attitude of the lady trying out the remote
Can we just appreciate for a moment that he got Bill Gates in the video!
16:58
Why would anyone appreciate that. Bill Gates was close with Epstein
Back then: This TV has a remote!
In 20 years: This TV can be controlled with your brain.
So old
Currently: this TV controls what you think.
It won't take 20 years
@@farzeenahmed7246 That's true. Honestly though, I'm never going to let someone put something in my brain to read my thoughts or give me thoughts. That's just creepy! Imagine having a song stuck in your head, but literally!

I remember when the clapper came out lol. It was a huge thing to flex in the house when you had company
I am obsessed’ed with these series!!!!!
Just a quick question from a European that actually uses the Celsius scale: who would like to have 30 degree Celsius in the bedroom?? For the Americans out there: that‘s 86 degree Fahrenheit. It‘s like really hot
Not me! Where I live, houses aren’t typically air conditioned, unless you’re very rich, although many have heat pumps which can act as AC if you want.
But even in winter I don’t heat any part of the house to that temperature, it’s 18 degrees at a maximum. In fact, I haven’t run any kind of hearing in a long time ‘cause I like being colder
that's not hot at all LOL . Europeans have bad genes if they think 86 deg is hot. Here in Cali summer days are in the low 90's and we have a larger GDP than almost every euro nation AKA we work in this heat /
@@ThreeDaysOfDan yeah summer here sees us in the high 30's C for several months too, but I still would never deliberately heat/cool my house to 30C/86F, that's way too hot.
Hell, I lived in West Australia for a while and summer was mid 40s C all day, rarely below 30C at night and you can be damn sure we kept it a lot cooler inside! We even had big shutters, like hurricane shutters I guess, to keep the sun out when it got really had. Once was in an open cast mine in January and their thermometer was reading 52C, which was truly awful and nearly made me faint. Cold is better!
I love this format!♥️
Its fun watching Marques discover all this stuff that I grew up with.

This is Netflix documentary quality, I'm impressed. Great content!
The segway at the very end from the current video to the wearable tech video, just by gesture, suggestive language strategically followed by the UA-cam pop up by Marques, is the well thought out content execution I'm here for 🙌🏾.
Enjoying your content from South Africa 🇿🇦.
“Shut up! We’re doing technology ****!”
I laughed so much...
The clapper is still more responsive than my Google Home. 😂
😂😂😂😂 agreed.
Marques: Closes eyes
Dolce Sloan: You'll be easy to hypnotize. lol
lots of nostalgia ...Much respect to the 70's and 80's
I wish phones had this tech now. It would be Way cooler than voice command.
Any time bill gates talk, the energy he brings gives me the impression, that any question you ask him, he thought up and prepared for 10 years ago. He just accesses a file in his brain and gives it with the confidence that experience can bring.
@@demonlime4713 yeah, that's what I'm saying. He's so well read that it appears like he prepared for it.
this series is so good man

I really like the idea of this series, but dislike the TV-esque editing and guests. Anyway, keep up the great work Marques and team!
I think a good source of inspiration for what a smart home should do would be to look at how houses of the wealthy back in the Victorian era were managed with different butlers and servants. So a smart house should probably at most be able to make decisions for you like what food you should eat, manage itself, manage your schedule and calendar, order food to prepare for you, talk with you and have a personality of it's own, and work to minimize the amount of tasks you fulfill yourself while minimizing the cost of operating and maintaining the house.
It’s that Jean Jacket for me! 🙌🏿
