What is a Smart Kitchen?
A smart kitchen integrates connected appliances, AI-driven software, and IoT (Internet of Things) to create a seamless cooking and household experience. These kitchens are called "smart" because they:
i) Understand user behavior
ii) Learn from habits and preferences
iii) Offer predictive suggestions
iv) Improve time and energy efficiency
v) Integrate voice and mobile control systems
