Smart Home Tools:

Wireless Internet has enabled the use of smoke detectors, smart lights, burglar alarm system, video door phones, CCTV, electronic lockers, and smart entertainment systems. This means that while you are away at work, your home is completely secure and these systems will report any inconsistencies directly to your mobile. Additionally, during your commute back home, you can set your room temperature, record Live TV as you missed the live telecast of the big game, turn on the bathroom geyser for a warm shower, and set the room lights to your mood from a simple mobile app.

Smart Printers:

With so many devices connected to the internet in a single household, the need for a wireless printer is imminent. It not only connects wirelessly, but you can also send print jobs to it from a remote location outdoors. On the other hand, many companies have started using wireless 3D printers for digital modeling of the design and testing phase of their products before market launch. This has substantially reduced their R&D costs, as they can in-house manufacture, experiment and experience their product at a fraction of the actual production cost.

Smart Glasses:

Do you remember the excitement of watching your first 3D movie in a theatre? The trends are quickly changing as terms like Virtual Reality & Augmented Reality is becoming commonplace. Both of these cutting-edge technologies change the way we perceive and interact with our own surroundings. While Google Glass is anticipated to resume production by the end of this year. There are a few companies selling smart glasses in India fitted with a high-quality camera to capture HD quality images and videos. The astounding success of Pokemon Go on one hand and the hundreds of listings of "affordable VR glasses" selling in India across various e-commerce platforms is an indication that we are ready to embrace both of these new technologies with aplomb.
