This R2-D2-Inspired Refrigerator Will Deliver Drinks To You On The Couch
f you’ve always wanted your refrigerator to come to you when you’re on the couch, your dream may soon come true.
Furthermore, it’ll come true in Star Wars form. A new refrigerator modeled after the series’ R2-D2 robot has been developed by Haier Asia’s AQUA brand, according to Gizmodo. And it isn’t just any old fridge: This product moves on its own via remote control. This means you can direct it to roll right up to you whenever you want an iced cold beverage.
Unfortunately, the refrigerator has a battery that needs to be recharged in order for it to remain mobile, though this may be a small price to pay for robotic convenience. The refrigerator holds 12 cans and has all of the flashing lights that R2-D2 features in the popular films.
This, along with its standard refrigeration capabilities, are sure to attract kitchen owners and Star Wars fans alike. The price and launch date for the product have yet to be released.
Refrigerators are one of the many appliances that continue to see upgrades as the Internet of Things movement expands. For example, the ChillHub made a splash this May when it debuted with “smart” capabilities. The ChillHub has two USB ports and Wi-Fi connectivity. It also has an open-source iOS-compatible app.
