Intelligent furniture?

Well we’ve heard about intelligent appliances, so why not smart furniture? Like this concept key table which can measure mood?

‘The key table gets a sense of people’s emotions from the way they dump their stuff onto it. Much as slamming doors are a crude measure of mental state, so the table uses the transient onsets of a new weight to gauge mood… For example, mechanised frames might swing pictures off centre to warn other inhabitants to tread carefully.’
