The pan has a smart temperature sensor that talks to an app on your phone. The app alerts you to adjust temperatures, tells you when to flip meats or add vegetables based on the recipe you pick. Simple! It can work with your existing cooktop or you can purchase accessories.

Smart Large Kitchen Appliances can better coordinate your home-cooked meals. Microwaves, refrigerators and ovens can be connected, creating a smart hub in your kitchen.

This technology is relatively new and can be quite expensive. Before shelling out your hard-earned dollars, be sure to do some research and talk to professionals when possible.
