The first item on the list is the FOODsniffer. They say half the taste is the smell. However, it is not all the time that a person's nose and instinct is accurate. Besides, not all people are confident in their olfactory functions. With this in mind, tech developers have come up with a remote control-like device that was built to detect the freshness of food. The users would simply point the handheld device towards the raw meat that they have in the kitchen and the machine processes the "smell". The wireless "eNose" runs a bioorganic test to measure gas levels. Through this process, the FOODsniffer determines whether the meat in question is fresh, starting to spoil, or is already spoiled. The analyzed data will be sent to the user's smartphone or tablet. This gadget ensures that consumers will be eating meat that is safe for consumption. The FOODsniffer can be bought at $129 and is available in four different colors.
The next item is called the Bartesian which mixes cocktail drinks for the user. The machine offers premium drinks on demand through a sleek dispenser that can be placed on any kitchen countertop.

After that, the user will then select the beverage strength ranging from mocktail, light, regular, or strong. All that is left to do is hit mix and wait for the drink to be done. For some drinks, the machine would recommend a stemware to be used. The Bartesian goes for $299 and the drink capsules are available in six-packs for $14 and 36-packs for $79.
Perhaps the most extravagant one is the Moley Kitchen Robot. The gadget is a pair of articulated arms descending from the ceiling of the cook station. It also includes a stove top, oven, and a sink.
