Samsung unveils fridge of the future

Samsung’s new Family Hub Fridge is a smart refrigator with an interactive screen that lets you directly order groceries.

Samsung Electronics introduced its 2016 Smart TV line up at CES 2016 in Las Vegas.

Samsung has unveiled its “Family Hub” refrigerator, which features a touchscreen display and cameras located inside to view the contents remotely.

The company, for example, also showcased the remote to end all remotes- a smart remote capable of controlling your television, cable set-top boxes, gaming consoles, Blu-ray and media players.

Samsung is using its own operating system Tizen for its new remote and Smart TV interface.

To make that happen, Samsung is throwing in a free SmartThings Extend USB adapter with a purchase of one of its 2016 4K TVs. “All you need is one Samsung Smart TV”.

Previous year at the Consumer Electronics Show, Mr Yoon pledged that all the company’s products will be able to communicate with one another by 2020. This fridge has an array of cameras in the door that snaps a photo of the fridge contents each time the door is closed.

That means when you’re down the shops and you can’t remember if you’ve got all the ingredients you need for the kids’ dinner, you can log onto the app on your smartphone and have a look. According to Android Authority, the Samsung Family Hub refrigerator is on display at the CES show floor.

Smart fridges have been in smart home concept videos for decades and have never really been a reality.

The new feature also enhances the entertainment experience by allowing consumers the ability to program a routine that puts the TV in the appropriate picture settings for a movie and activate the soundbar and surround system while watching TV. MasterCard Labs has partnered with grocery chains FreshDirect and ShopRite, as well as MyWebGrocer to kick things off, but more outlets will be added over time as the fridge goes on sale in more markets around the United States of America and the world.

“We’re excited to find out how more traditional manufacturers are going to find ways for appliances and for other pieces of technology in your house to talk to each other and work effectively without you”, CNET Editor-in-Chief Lindsey Turrentine said.
