Homie 帶你去德國 IFA

一年一度的 IFA 一向是最新技術的指標，2019年在德國舉辦的展覽也不例外。而今年，智能家居更是重中之重。Homie 小編，作為智能家居的愛好者，當然要第一時間為大家介紹一下新的產品和行業方向。

Hoover 智能廚房

Hoover Candy 在 IFA 展示了一堆新的智能廚房設備，包括焗爐（之前介紹過）、吸塵器和洗衣機等。它的智能吸塵器能夠在你做家務時計算消耗掉的卡路里。它的智能洗衣機 - Candy Rapido加了一個新功能 - 拍攝你要洗的衣服，Candy 的 App 就會自動選擇適當的程序來洗衣。

看完展示之後，小編覺得新功能暫時是噱頭多於實用性，期待廠方在之後的更新加入更多的創新想法。

智能音響大混戰

年初，Sonos Beam 和 Polk Command Bar 的成功令智能助手 + Soundbar 開始普及。在 2019 年 IFA，Amazon 與Anker 合作推出了 Nebula Soundbar Fire TV Edition。

Nebula Soundbar Fire TV Edition 除了是一個智能 Soundbar 外，也內置了 Fire TV。用家還可以透過 Amazon Alexa App 把 Soundbar 加到不同房間的 Soundbar 模組。

Roku 也在今年的 IFA 推出了智能 Soundbar，Soundbar 可以透過 HDMI ARC 連接任何電視使用，Roku OS 可以把普通電視變聰明，同時Soundbar又能升級音響。

Bosch x Google 強強聯手

Bosch - 德國著名的電子和工程公司在 IFA 2019 上推出了智能家居產品，正式進入戰團。

首發的產品包括了智能恆溫器，專為地板暖氣系統設計，用家可以自定義場景和不同設置進行編程。 Amazon Alexa 和 Google Assistant 都能兼容。

雖然初出的產品不太適合香港的市場，但小編還是期待 Bosch 之後的一番動作。

August 登陸英國市場

August 一直是美國智能門鎖的生產商，但一直主力發展美國市場，在 IFA 中，它宣佈以 Yale 來打英國市場。

新推出的 Yale 智能門鎖將可以與 Google Assistant 和 Amazon Alexa 配合使用，甚至可以遙控、自動鎖門/開鎖，甚至可以與SimpliSafe和Alarm.com對應。

智能燈光的巨頭 - Philips Hue 在 IFA 推出了兩個新產品 - Hue 鎢絲燈泡和智能插頭。

傳統的鎢絲燈泡加上 Philips Hue 平台的連接性，十分創新，適合走經典風的家但又嚮往智能家居的家庭。

另外就是智能插頭，代表著 Philips 走出了智能燈光的框框，向整個智能家居市場進發。Philips Hue 智能插頭和一般智能插頭一樣，可以支援 Apple HomeKit、Amazon Alexa 和 Google Assistant。

期待Philips Hue 繼續推出智能家居設備，讓用家多點選擇。
