白色產品創新背后不那么秘密的因素

　　在今天的房地產市場，包括廚房在內的大廚房是家庭的主要賣點。為此，傳感器技術正在被用來增加設備變得更加創新和節能。家用電器是主要的能源使用者，傳感器用于幫助降低電力消耗，從而實現二氧化碳排放。

　　從監測濕度干燥器在洗衣機保持最佳水位（圖1），并從控制噴霧壓力在洗碗機為更好的烘烤效果在烤箱溫度監測，傳感器在白色家電設計的主導作用，提供測量精度要求的頂級家電制造商，誰，反過來，努力使生活更容易，我們的環境更好的客戶。

　　Plainly stated， sensor-driven white goods are now just plain smart. It wasn‘t too long ago that the smartest thing to hit our kitchen was an espresso maker — a mini attempt at barista quality — but one that required you to measure， froth， and well， do it all yourself. Now， based on the integration， miniaturization， and advances in sensor technology many appliances perform jobs more efficiently and accurately， and as a result， smart appliances are expected to become a major share of the total appliance market as early as 2015. According to a recent smart appliance report from Navigant’s Energy Practice1 research， the market will grow to an annual value from $613 million in 2012 to $34.9 billion in 2020.

　　Now let‘s look at some specific examples of sensor-driven appliance innovation.
