A device can be called smart if it helps us out with our daily tasks. If our phones can be smart, then so can be our homes. To understand how smart appliances work, let's first go through the concept of IoT, that is the internet of things. As its name suggests, the internet of things is a network in which various devices are interconnected with one another. Having such a network helps decrease human intervention, thereby allowing the interconnected appliances to become smart and act on their own. Communication and synchronisation between devices are made achievable over wi-fi.

In the category of home appliances, let us consider smart fridges as an example. Keeping track of household items can be one big hassle. If you have a large family, then more effort is required to keep track of items. Many smart fridges make use of cameras and keep updating the quantity of every unique item on a synchronised app that can be installed on your smartphone.
