Samsung is just about to launch a brand new
range of smart connected built-in ovens, but it’s not just traditional kitchen appliances that benefit from smart features…
The Jet Bot AI+ Robot Vacuum (pictured right) is more than just a vacuum cleaner. It can remotely monitor the house and check on pets through its front camera – a very useful feature for pet-owners who are now out and about a bit more. This feature is called Jet Live.

There’s also CookView (right), an internal camera located in the handle of the oven door, which allows users to watch a live feed of their dish via the app. Dishwashers are also compatible with the app.
“Looking forward, we are keeping focused on creating unique experiences for our consumers,” states Iain Wareham, Head of Product Line Laundry at Electrolux UK and Ireland. “We will continue to reinvent our connected experiences through Taste, Care and Wellbeing,
