LG announced a lot of upcoming products at its event today during the CES 2014 press day in Las Vegas, including a new line of premium kitchen appliances.

The LG Studio collection includes a full complement of modern kitchen necessities, including ranges, wall ovens, cooktops, microwave ovens, and dishwashers, all of which are impeccably well-designed and equipped with innovative new technologies.

The Studio Refrigerator, for example, is outfitted with a dual evaporator system that can rapidly adapt to changes in temperature and humidity to ensure that your food stays as fresh an possible. This system is able to react quickly thanks to an array of digital temperature/humidity sensors that line the fridge’s interior compartments and constantly monitor the atmosphere.

The Studio dishwasher features LG’s TrueSteam technology that uses high-temperature water vapor blasted through special nozzles to remove food particles from dishes. This method is meant to completely eliminate the need to pre-wash dishes before you place them in the washer.

On top of all that, LG has outfitted this machine with modular, adjustable racks that allow you to rearrange the layout of the washer to better accommodate oddly-shaped bowls, pans, platters, and other dishes. Whereas most other dishwashers only featuer two tiers, LG’s TrueSteam dishwashers come with a height-adjustable third tier, which gives you some extra space to place unruly items like spatulas and whisks.

The Studio collection also offers a complete set of cooking essentials, including gas and electric cooktops, single and double wall ovens, slide-in and freestanding ranges, and microwave ovens. Appliances such as the wall oven come complete with a digital recipe bank housing over 100 recipes — 42 of which are pre-programmed into the oven.

No word on when the Studio line will be available for purchase, but we expect LG to roll them out within the next few months. For now, you can head over to LG’s CES website for further details.

Segway expands its smart home footprint with robot lawn mowers at CES 2024

The Segway i Series being set up.

Segway -- the company responsible for Paul Blart's preferred mode of transportation -- already has a surprisingly robust smart home lineup. The company expanded its catalog at CES 2024, revealing a new series of robot lawn mowers (Navimow i Series) and a new portable power station (Segway Cube Series).

The upcoming Navimow i Series makes a few big improvements over Segway's existing H Series. Along with the ability to work without wires (which are typically used to set boundaries for the robot), the i Series employs a technology known as the Exact Fusion Locating System (EFLS). Segway says this will let the robot lawn mower better track its location and ensure it's cutting your lawn as close to specifications as possible.

Mila reveals a sleek new humidifier/air purifier combo at CES 2024

Mila -- an air purification company -- debuted two new products at CES 2024, both geared towards enhancing your indoor environment and improving the air you breathe. Products on display included the Mila Air 3 and Mila Halo, though the team also offered a look at Mila Insights, a new set of reports that give you an in-depth look at your air quality and how it can be improved.

The Mila Halo is the more intriguing of the two, as it's both a humidifier and air purifier packed into a single unit. Along with outer panels that are fully customizable (allowing you to find a color or pattern that fits your home décor), it can detect when your room is unoccupied to turn off its water tank. Not only will that prevent over-humidification, but it should allow each tank to last longer before needing a refill.

Nanoleaf upgrades its music-syncing skills, launches new lighting products at CES 2024

The Nanoleaf Skylight lighting up a room various shades of purple.

Nanoleaf lit up the stage at CES 2024, pulling back the curtain on a variety of new lighting products arriving later this year. Along with the Essentials Matter Smart Multicolor Lightstrip, Outdoor String Lights, and Permanent Outdoor Lights, the company gave fans a closer look at the upcoming Skylight Modular Ceiling Light and the Orchestrator software -- with the latter bringing massive improvements to Nanoleaf's music syncing abilities.

Orchestrator is arguably the most exciting innovation of the bunch, as it connects directly to your computer's sound source to create a highly accurate lighting performance. This allows your Nanoleaf products to create a light show that's more robust than most other products on the market, which rely on sound alone.
