Tex Avery’s cartoon from 1953, TV of Tomorrow, brings us on a tour of the possibilities of interactive television. By incorporating TV into hobbies and pastimes, such as fishing or playing bridge, this cartoon predicts a future where we can interact with our television, and it can even interact with us! While none of these creative ideas actually exist today without the help of a video game console, it proves how even back in the 1950’s, people saw how television would soon become an integral part of their lives.

The Copenhagen Wheel becomes a natural extension of one’s everyday life, as it constantly sends feedback about the user’s effort and supplies information such as relative humidity and road conditions.
