It is a cooking device, an entertainment device, and an invisible wireless charging device; it is a table, an island in the family, and an intelligent platform connecting multiple family life scenarios. It is a Versâtis full-scene home intelligent interactive platform, produced by EuroKera, a world-renowned glass-ceramic supplier in France.(egg boiler)

On November 25, 2020, François Vianey, project manager of Versâtis in the Asia-Pacific region of France Okey, shared the story behind this innovative product to the reporter of “Electrical”.

When glass-ceramic meets smart home

In 2012, Corning released the video “A Day Made of Glass 2″. The video showed many scenarios of future glass technology applications, including family members cooking, watching videos, and socializing on an all-glass workbench. Interaction etc. “The original idea of Versâtis came from this video released by the parent company Corning. The scenes and applications shown in the video remind us of the high-end glass-ceramics produced by Okey, whose characteristics can perfectly support the future life scenes described in the Corning video. Needs.” François told the reporter of “Electrical Appliances” that Okey’s team observed two trends and finally strengthened the company’s determination to develop this innovative product.

First, the positioning of the kitchen is changing. François said: “In modern homes, the kitchen has been upgraded from a closed and narrow space to a more open and diverse place, and has gradually become the core of family life.” Second, the trend of intelligent development has become more apparent. He said that more and more brands have begun to develop smart products, and the development of smart home appliances has become more and more popular. “Combining Corning’s ideas and market development trends, we decided to make a very interesting product that fits the future smart scene.” François said, “What’s more surprising is that when we shared this idea with Corning’s experts, they were very Recognition also means that we will actively cooperate in the research and development process.”(egg boiler)

As François said, the Versâtis full-scene home intelligent interactive platform is a product that can freely switch between cooking, home office, home entertainment and social networking. According to reports, Versâtis currently integrates many functions such as cooking, home appliance interconnection, wireless charging, and projection. “These functions can be achieved thanks to the particularity of the glass-ceramic material.” François explained, “First of all, glass-ceramic is a safe and efficient high-tech material. Not only heat energy can be efficiently transferred to the pot, wireless charging signal It can also be easily transmitted; secondly, it has the attributes of technological interconnection and can be integrated with a variety of smart products. The functions of Versâtis have yet to be explored. In the future, more smart devices will be integrated with glass-ceramics.” It is mentioned that Versâtis also won the 2020 French Grand Prix Stratégies Product Design Gold Award.(egg boiler)

The Versâtis full-scene home intelligent interactive platform is a key created by French Okey using glass-ceramic as a carrier, a key that can open multiple smart home scenarios. Eventually this key will be dedicated to end consumers. “In a smart home, there are not too many physical restrictions on the kitchen, living room and other spaces, and the space has been opened up. We hope to follow this trend and meet the needs of end customers in the smart home.” According to the introduction, for end customers , Positioning the high-end market, Versâtis is taking the road of one-to-one customization and large-scale manufacturing of standard models. On the one hand, France Okey can tailor the family-specific Versâtis for super large customers; on the other hand, France Okey will also produce standardized models for more advanced customers in the market.(egg boiler)

At the same time, France Okey hopes to recommend Versâtis to more home appliance manufacturers. “Versâtis looks like a very large table on the surface. It breaks through the size limitation of glass-ceramics. In the future, if kitchen appliance brands need large-scale seamlessly integrated surfaces and high-end materials with strong mechanical properties , Glass-ceramics can be used as the preferred material for cooperation. As the world’s leading supplier of glass-ceramics, we can provide this material to interested customers and cooperate with them to carry out more research and development based on this.” François revealed, “We We have already connected with some major domestic brands to discuss the possibility of cooperation and application.”(egg boiler)
