LG’s Thinq Cleans Your Home, Feeds Your Dog While You’re Away

LG HOM-BOT

LG has introduced Thinq, a new technology that could change your everyday life for the better –- and help you to rely on machines even more!

All you need is a wireless network and LG Thinq-enabled appliances, and you’ll be able to clean your home, program your washer and dryer, and feed your dog using your smartphone.

Ultimately, LG Thinq technology seeks to save energy (by letting you remotely control the temperature on your fridge, for example) and enable us to manage our homes more easily.

Start with the LG vacuum robot, HOM-BOT. Using your smartphone (or tablet), you can program HOM-BOT to clean certain rooms on certain days and even watch via built-in camera as it feeds your pets. In the near future, LG washers, dryers, fridges and dishwashers will also be Thinq-enabled.

A little over-the-top? Sure. But as your next vacation comes to a close, you might find yourself wishing you could do your laundry, feed Fido, clean the carpets and start the oven before you even walk in the door.
