Future Predicting App Concept by Dor Tal

Future Predicting App Concept by Dor Tal from Dezeen on Vimeo.

Israeli designer Dor Tal’s Future Control project uses data generated on social networks to help users predict the future and take action ahead of time. This personal horoscope built on your data could be used for everything from when you're most likely to go to the gym, to predicting what mood your partner is going to be in when they get home. Tal's concept works in two ways. The first requires the user to download an app on to their smartphone that scours their social networks and any data generated about user. An algorithm based in a cloud system of servers then crunches through the numbers to detect any patterns of behaviour that could be forecast ahead of time. The more accounts the user adds, including credit card information, Google, Apple and Facebook, the more intelligent it becomes.
