The Coolest Gadgets for Your Home Today

Technology has completely transformed the way we live. From our fitness activities to food intake, everything is monitored by the smart devices we own. While there is an array of gadgets for the home, we have curated a list of gadgets here that we think are truly innovative.

Before we start, here is a disclaimer: These gadgets may look a little expensive, but they will surely make you look smarter than your friends. Trust us! Just imagine the look on your friend’s face when the lights of your living room suddenly brighten up as you start talking.

PS: The last gadget on our list is just plain cool.

Feel safe with digital locks

Do you often lose your door keys or leave them inside your car? Do you ever wish that the door unlocks itself whenever you come home with your hands full after grocery shopping? Your wish is granted. Digital locks will not only make your life convenient but also make your home more secure.

These easy-to-operate locks work either with your smartphone or an inbuilt digital keypad or both. Digital locks have features such as:

  • Auto-lock and unlock
  • Home automation integration
  • Built-in alarm

These locks are also useful if you leave your keys with the housekeeping person or your cook. You can assign them their own codes. This way you can also track when they arrive and when they leave. Smart, right?

However, before you buy one, make sure that your doors are properly aligned and open smoothly.
While the concept is popular in the West, it is yet to catch pace in Indian markets. Our top three picks are digital locks by Yale, Samsung, and Godrej.

Make your shower more fun

Who doesn’t love to start their mornings with some music, especially during a shower? We often end up taking the wireless speaker or the radio to the bathroom. You no longer have to do this as a showerhead with a wireless speaker is already in the market.

We recommend Moxie by Kohler, which seems to be leading the show in the bathroom technology front.

Smart toilets for a smarter you

Smart toilets are also making a quiet entry into the Indian market. From ambient-coloured lighting to wireless Bluetooth music sync capability to the heated seat and foot warmer- smart toilets are creating new standards of excellence in bathroom technology.

If you are thinking of splurging on your bathroom, consider Numi by Kohler.

For a good night of sleep

Monitoring sleep quality has become the latest fad in the health industry. After fitness bands, sleep monitors are the next big thing. These monitors slide under your sheets without disturbing your slumber.

Nokia Sleep and Withings Aura Smart Sleep Systemis are two of the most popular monitors that are easily available online.

If you have friends or relatives coming from abroad, you can also ask them to get you a smart pillow, which consists of a water-filled hub to keep you cool.

Have the right ambience for every occasion

Want to control the lighting of your home and create the right ambience for every moment? Then bring home smart lights. These lights usually work with a bridge and an app to control the colour and intensity.

Also, you can switch off or on the lights using the app itself. While there are several products in this space, Philips Hue is worth a try.

Get a digital personal assistant

Smart Speaker is another product that has created a buzz in the technology industry. These speakers work like your personal assistant. Further, you can also control all your smart devices with just one speaker. There’s a bevy of smart speakers available in the market.

These include Google Home, Alexa, Amazon Echo, and Apple Home Pod, to name a few.

Create classy cocktail evenings

You may have come across the smart cooker, oven, or refrigerator. But we have something more interesting – a gadget that will help you recreate your favourite cocktails!

Meet The Barman. Comprising of a digital scale, LED lights, Bluetooth, and a mobile app, you can prepare your drink in a jiffy. All you have to do is to place the glass on top of The Barman. Using the app, you can select a recipe and the Barman will guide your further.

So, what are you waiting for? Go ahead and make some manhattans or negronis.
