Top 100 Tech Trends in October

From AI-Powered Cookbooks to GPS-Powered Robotic Lawnmowers

— October 16, 2021 — Tech
The October 2021 tech innovations showcase how the industry is leaning on tracking services for self and home improvements. GPS-powered robotic lawnmowers, Segway Navimow, for example, utilize the power of GPS -- a commonly used tracking service -- to perform home maintenance. Manufacturers in the tech industry are using pre-existing technology to create all new products.

Another example is the Everyday Experiments from Ikea's SPACE10 design lab. The Algorithmic Chef identifies ingredients and recipes to create a personalized cookbook. This innovation uses the power of AI to help users create healthy food habits. Similarly, The Fresh Fridge promotes a healthy lifestyle inspires recipe creativity by analyzing its contents and curating meal preparation options for its users. Technology is thus being used to encourage health through innovative product inventions like the aforementioned devices.
