Design Considerations

• Smart+Dart (or some other very fast) web application framework
• Redis + Postgres
• Elasticsearch
• JS API for developers to account for
• Sign in to services like amazon & netflix & spotify & pandora
• No login or username creation like SONOS

Random Thoughts

• Must be 4k enabled.
• Unsure about 3D.
• Signed About Screen with sigs of all developers
• Pair up controllers
• Controllers can be metamorphic, driven by developers (since there are no physical buttons, it has a mic, touch, etc)
• Auto-tune for karaoke with phone mic.
