The Family Hub refreigerator also connects to a user's smartphone, allowing for a remote view of the contents inside the fridge. Using the smartphone connect feature of the fridge, users will also be able to go grocery shopping without having to worry about forgetting an item. Users can access the contents of the fridge when they go shopping and also post shopping lists, notes and other reminders on the door of the fridge.
The Samsung Family Hub refrigerator sports four doors and is divided into two sections. The smart fridge can also be used to keep a check on the available food stock, along with reminders of when the stock is about to run out. In addition to this, the Samsung Family Hub will also help users maintain a record of the expiry dates of products in their fridge, allowing for decreased wastage of food. In Korea. users will also be able to see food products that are on sale, which they can then order from the comfort of the Family Hub's display. The Family Hub will also serve as a central hub and will connect to all other connected devices in your home.
Last year, at CES 2015, Samsung had showcased its T-type line of refrigerators. The T-type had a clear door inside the main door of the fridge, allowing users to look at the contents without letting the cool air escape. The T-type had a similar design sans the 21.5 inch Full HD display. This year of course, Samsung has upped the ante with the Family Hub refrigerator, which seems like a very useful addition to its IoT portfolio. The connected devices space is probably one of CES's most popular tech categories this time around. According to the McKinsey Global Institute, the value created by smart connected devices is going to reach a whopping $11 trillion by 2025. Samsung is also expected to unveil a whole new line-up of smart IoT-ready televisions, which will probably have the ability to connect to other Samsung IoT products such as the Family Hub refrigerator.
The price and availability of the Samsung Family Hub is yet unannounced, but it is expected to be unveiled during the course of CES 2016. For all the news and updates from CES 2016, keep a close eye on Digit's CES 2016 news hub.
