Period: Purchased new for collection, never used.
Canada: Taken from acquisition worksheet: "Home automation, or smart-homes, is an area of increasing consumer interest in Canada. Home automation involves, to some level, the control and automation of lighting, heating, ventilation, air conditioning, appliances, and security. Modern systems generally consist of switches and sensors connected to a central hub sometimes called a “gateway” from which the system is controlled with a user interface that is interacted either with a wall-mounted terminal, mobile phone software, tablet computer, or a web interface."
Function: This ‘smart’ slow cooker cooks food. It provides both the container to hold the food and to heat it. It can also be adjusted (temperature, cook time, on/off) via a smart device.
Technical: Taken from acquisition worksheet: "A basic slow cooker consists of a lidded round or oval cooking pot made of glazed ceramic or porcelain, surrounded by a housing, usually metal, containing an electric heating element. The lid is often made of glass and rests in a groove in the pot’s edge; condensed vapour collects in the groove and provides a low-pressure seal. (ref.2) This slow cooker operates WeMo, which is a product of Belkin International Inc. that enables users to control home electronics from anywhere as long as the device’s network is connected to the internet.
