November 2017 interactivity trends reveal the wide-ranging implications in interactive tech, with everything from common household items to immersive experiences having the ability to benefit from interactive features.
An example of the former is the Long Distance Touch Lamp, a unique lamp set that was designed in a way that lets you "light up loved ones lives." The lamps can be connected to others, and when users touch them they can make their loved ones aware of the fact that they are thinking of them, as their lamp will glow in reaction.
An example of the latter is the Free the Night VR experience created by Microsoft, which is an immersive and artistic experience that involves the manipulation of light within the virtual world the experience is set in.
