With this in mind, I've been attempting to rethink the technicalities behind the system. How it collects the bacteria and it's interaction with the users as a futuristic system.
The first part is simple enough, the user passively gives off their bacteria to form an invisible cloud around them.
Bacteria -> Data
The bacteria is then passively suctioned in via soundless vacuums that run from a small gap beneath the skirting board of the home. This gap was chosen because it's there anyway, and it could be used a stylistic feature with this system implemented in homes. The bacteria is then collected on either the fan of a petri dish. Where it is then read to collect the data for results.
As the bacteria is microscopic, cleaning isn't a heavy issue. If needed to be addressed then the idea of self cleaning seems to be the most relevant option to assume.
Looking at the hoover within our home, it only needs cleaned when something gets trapped. This can be prevented in the ClouB system with a small sieve-like grate along the opening. Allowing microscopic bacteria to pass through, or even sit on the surface, and other aspects like hair/dust to not interfere.
Data -> System
The next stage in the process is how the scientific readings from the bacteria are sent to the central hub. Naturally enough, this must be done through the use of wires. Instead of being messy and hanging around the home everywhere, these wires will be small (possible 3mm thickness) and integrated into the wall itself - much like electrical wires installed when a house is being built.
System -> Hub
All of the wires connect up to a central hub - ClouB. From here, ClouB will read the scientific results and send simplified ones to the users smart phone device.
ClouB will then transmit RGB colour signals to the mosaic designs around the home and light the area in which the user is situated, with variations depending on how their results read. Red tones may appear to one person, but not the next, and so on.
Hub -> Output (Results)
Results are primarily sent out to mobile devices. Other options include interfaces embedded into furniture - Medicine cabinet door with a personal health/sickness result page, the splash panel of the oven shows hunger/thirst for each person in the household, the alarm clock shows the sleep levels lately.
The Cloud Storage System could be used to send the same scientific data to hospitals, doctors and alike when it may be necessary. When the user is getting ill, the doctor may get a prompt to inform them alongside a bacteria breakdown to show them what exactly might be wrong.
Extra
Another idea of output is interaction. The current response time is 4 hours, in the next 10 years that may drop to an approximate 1 hour time period. With this in mind, user interaction may prompt quicker response time. For example, having sensors built into table tops, hair brushes and other areas where users will frequently interact will allow a pulse-light effect and the bacteria to be instantly transmitted from the user to the system without use of the vacuum system in some circumstances.

In due course I will develop the infographics to further display this information in an appropriate format that will hopefully help me further understand how the smaller aspects of this system work in it's fullest.
Now my head is sore..
