ASTRA 2000 FULLY AUTOMATED

It can prepare a wide variety of coffees such as caffeinated and decaffeinated espresso, cappuccino, latte, café au lait, as well as gourmet American coffee drinks. This machine does not pre-grind the coffee beans. The beans are ground only after the desired drink has been selected, resulting in a fresh and aromatic concoction every time. There is also a high power steam wand. The switch of a button transforms it from a traditional coffee machine into an automatic drink maker. PRICE: $12,500

LG KNOCK ON THE DOOR-IN-DOOR OR

Winner of several innovation awards, this refrigerator has a regular opaque door, but one which, if knocked upon, turns translucent, allowing the user to observe the contents inside without opening it. There is a mirrored glass panel on the door which lights up at two knocks, revealing the interior. Even to open the door, there is no need to use the hands. There are smart sensors at the foot of the door which open it as soon as the user steps on a projection of light in front of the door. The body is stainless steel, with a scratch resistant textured finish. The interior includes an ice and water dispenser with measured fill. PRICE NOT FIXED YET
