There is a control panel on the wall that clearly shows the plan of the apartment, all that Mi Yung needs to do is . press the button, then everything will be cleverly managed by the system. First of all, air quality is always kept at the best level for health thanks to the cleaning mode.

Unsatisfied, engineers continue to think of higher ideas and test applications into model houses.

Accordingly, there is no need for a wall-mounted control panel, just a tiny personal computer worn on the wrist will help with everything, like turning on and off the device, opening the door, locating the owner. . all are voice activated.

The refrigerator automatically lists items inside to make suggestions with appropriate cooking methods and will alert if the food is out of date.

The key lies in the labels attached to the packaging, containing all food related information. Refrigerators can 'read' this information whenever food passes by the door.

In the bedroom, the wardrobe will advise the appropriate style of clothing, based on the work schedule and the weather, traffic is constantly updated through the system. When the owner leaves the house, the house automatically 'sleeps' to save energy.

With the rapid development of today's technology, these 'surreal' ideas will soon be present in our own homes.
