Observations
• In the past products mainly took over physical functions from the user.
• In this information era, mental functions are taken over as well. • A product is not anymore defined by just design requirements,
but also by a man-machine “contract” in which rule for cooperation between them are recorded.
• Products will not relate to each other anymore as master and slave but as partners aiming for an objective, which generally is decided for by the user.
• But even that is not necessary. The objective could be decided for by the supplier of the device.

Conclusion
• Concluding we could argue that the relation man-machine is changing from:
“a paradigm in which the interface is acting as an intermediary between user and device”
to “a paradigm in which man and machine communicate
directly.

EXTENSION OF HUMAN CAPABILITIES
• Donald Schön [3] and others defined “extension of human capabilities” as a main goal of technology.
• Philosopher Peter-Paul Verbeek [2] added to that idea the
principle that technology is not something that humans work with, but something that is part of being human.

EXTENSION OF HUMAN CAPABILITIES
• In fact there is nothing new about that. • A pair of spectacles is an extension of your sense of
sight. • Your clothes are an extension of your capabilities to
manage body temperature, as well as an extension of you capabilities to express yourself.

EXTENSION OF HUMAN CAPABILITIES
• Already thousands of years, a horse was an extension of our capabilities to move.
• The difference between spectacles and clothes on the one hand and horses on the other hand is the fact that horses are smart products.
• As the phenomenon of smart products is booming, it is time to learn from one of the first smart product: a horse.

conclusions
• This vacuum cleaner has started to look a little bit like a horse.
• It communicates with body language and manages an own agenda.
• For developing body language a lot of technology has to be developed.
• Passive color changing materials are proven to be possible, but are not yet applicable on a large scale.
• The same counts for shape changing materials. In a horse this technology is present but it is difficult to imitate.
• There is a lot of work for biomimicry people.
