1. Multifunctional Tech:
In 2024, we will witness the rise of multifunctional tech as the focal point of innovation. Hybrid products combining various appliances and gadgets into one are expected to make a significant impact. Take, for instance, the LG Air Purifying Table – a remarkable tech appliance that combines a table, air purifier, LED light, and wireless charger into a single, multifaceted device. Additionally, the Novabot, a lawn mowing robot equipped with security features, will ensure your lawn stays well-maintained while enhancing your home's security. An air-purifying robot called the Airbot Z1 will not only refresh the air in different rooms but also double as a portable audio speaker, accompanying you throughout your home.
2. AR Home Control:
Apple's Vision Pro, slated for release in 2024, will have a significant impact on smart home devices and how we control them. Furthermore, Xiaomi has introduced smart glasses that enable users to control their home devices through intuitive gestures and visual interactions. The merger of these two technologies promises an exciting future for smart home enthusiasts.
3. AI Habit Learning:
Artificial intelligence will play a pivotal role in our smart homes, with next-generation products leveraging AI to adapt to your habits. By optimizing your living spaces based on your lifestyle and daily routines, these products will enhance your overall experience. Voice assistants, with the help of machine learning, will expand their capabilities and provide assistance similar to ChatGPT, making them even more indispensable.
