What are the benefits of adding WIFI to a traditional oven? You can use the mobile phone application to control the temperature, including preheating and heating. What's even cooler is that you can download recipes to achieve more targeted cooking methods.
Not only ovens, but also some high-end coffee machines and bartenders are equipped with WIFI. The manufacturer will update the coffee or cocktail menu from time to time, so that you can make the taste of cafes and bars at home.
Air conditioning and temperature control
In hot summer, nothing is more pleasant than entering a cool room, but how to realize automatic temperature control when there is no one at home? The answer is smart air conditioner or thermostat. For example, the Aros intelligent air conditioner jointly launched by Quirky and General Electric can not only realize remote temperature control operation through mobile phones, but also learn user habits, and can realize full-automatic temperature control operation by positioning the user's position through GPS.
If you don't want to change the air conditioner, there are actually simpler solutions, such as Tado. This thermostat is very suitable for domestic users because it is compatible with mainstream air conditioners including Haier. As long as you connect the air conditioner, you can easily set up an intelligent temperature control system, control the temperature of each room through your mobile phone, customize the personalized mode, and support the automatic temperature control adjustment function based on location.
Bedroom toilet
Toilets can also be smart? Yes, in addition to automatically opening and closing the lid through the built-in proximity sensor, TOTO also introduced a toilet with a built-in intelligent analyzer, which can transmit the analysis results of excrement to the mobile phone application, so that users can know their health status at any time.
lamplight
Smart light bulbs are also a very intuitive and introductory home experience of the Internet of Things, which any user can easily try. At present, there are more and more smart light bulb brands, including well-known brands such as Philips and LG. We can turn the lights on and off, adjust the color and brightness through the mobile phone application, and even realize the effect that the lights flicker with the music, turning the room into a cool dance floor.
(power supply) socket
Socket can be said to be the basic interface for all household appliances to obtain electricity. If it has the ability to connect to the internet, naturally other electrical appliances can also achieve it. At present, there are more and more smart plug brands on the market. Well-known products such as Belgin, Plum, D-Link and so on. They can not only remotely switch on and off household appliances such as lights, fans and air conditioners, but also monitor the power consumption of equipment and generate charts to help you save energy and expenses better.
sound system
I believe many friends have heard of the name Sonos. The products of this wireless audio brand all use WIFI wireless connection, which can be connected to the home wireless LAN, allowing users to control music playback through mobile devices. Compared with Bluetooth, WIFI transmission signals are more extensive and stable, and at the same time, each speaker can play independent music and be linked with smart light bulbs and other devices, which is obviously more suitable for home environment than Bluetooth speakers. In addition, manufacturers including Samsung and Sony have also entered the field of wireless audio, giving users more choices.
Motion monitoring
Technology has brought us new ways of exercise and fitness. You may have used a sports bracelet or smart watch to monitor your daily exercise. Moreover, placing a new intelligent weighing scale at home can achieve a more comprehensive motion monitoring effect. Products like Withings have built-in advanced sensors, which can monitor blood pressure, fat content and even air quality, provide users with health advice through applications, and can also be interconnected with other brands of sports bracelets to achieve more accurate and seamless personal health monitoring.
Personal care
Not only sports fitness monitoring, but also the Internet of Things technology has been radiated to the field of personal health care. Smart toothbrushes have been introduced, including Oral B and Beam toothbrushes. The toothbrush itself is connected with the smart phone through Bluetooth 4.0, which can remind the time and location of brushing teeth, and can also generate an analysis chart according to the data of brushing teeth of users to predict the oral health status.
In addition, home self-test equipment such as GoBe blood glucose analyzer has also made substantial progress in the near future and is expected to form a huge market in the future. By then, the elderly and patients can realize basic self-care and medical care applications through these devices without leaving home.
