here's an idea, have a look in the fridge and make a list like everyone has been doing for as long as refrigeration has existed
I'm a firm believer in appliances that do what they're supposed to do and don't need anything more powerful than a microcontroller in them for computing

Fuck off, grandpa.
And, like a lot of smart technology, it won't receive any security updates and will inevitably become vulnerable to some sort of attack. Your fridge will end up in some kid's botnet.

Obvious Samsung shill
But to answer your question, no. This is technology that seems novel at first but serves little to no actual purpose. If you dont know what is currently in your fridge then you probably arent the person buying groceries regularly, and simply installing a camera somewhere inside is only going to allow you to see what is directly in front of the camera.

meanwhile my family has a samsung fridge with a broken "door open alert bell" thing, so it just randomly dings ALL DAY LONG ALL NIGHT LONG NON-STOP. we've all become deaf to it but when i have people over theyre like "wtf is that sound?" fucking shamsung
>>52282513
Why are you too poor to call a repairman?
>>52282495
It doesn't
>>52282425
You know those moments when you're at the fridge and think up a clever shitpost to make, and you think how great would it be if you could post it from your fridge?
Stupid idea,
Depending on where the camera is and what you have in your fridge you wont be able to see everything like you can looking in person and moving shit. Not to mention the extra cost added to the fridge.
I love using my phone for all sorts of shit that's not really needed, but I would much rather make a list than look at a live stream of my fridge at the store like a retard.
Why not just make a list like a normal fucking person?
>>52282523

Because most are willing to compromise privacy to become technologically and intellectually dependent.
Even if privacy is concerned, maintaining it is more of a hassle than the convenience it brings.
>>52282354
smart fridges and dishwashers and shit like that are prime time entry points
>>52282354
Once they become mainstream, some sort of standard will emerge so that they can continue to be updated.
Or, Cyanogenmod for Fridges will happen.
who are these things made for?
is it somehow difficultt to remember what you have in fridge? or is it somehow hard to look into it before you go to store?

They say that's what this feature is for, but we all know the purpose is making sure no one touches the stuff you bought or that leftover cheesecake with your name on it.
The idea of calling someone angry as shit for raiding the fridge is funny to me.

LG's Fridge Is Better Familias
you can knock on it and see whats inside or use the feet sensor to open it when hands are full.(animals wont open it)
If you aren't entirely off the grid with your refrigerating, you're doing it wrong. Entirely off solar power.

Or you could just take a picture of the inside of tier fridge with your phone before you leave the house. I'd rather my fridge have useful features, like a massive backup battery in case the power goes out and I don't want to throw out all of the meat.
>>52282165
The cost of that fridge would feed me McDonald's for a year
>>52282165
>This actually seems useful.
It seems retarded and unnecessary.
Look into your fridge before you go shopping. Write a list of the stuff you need. Take the list with you when you go shopping. Buy what you need. Throw list away.
But I forgot, writing things down isn't something the younger generation does anymore.
>>52291159
It's not something my parents or grandparents ever did either.
Not for shopping at least.
