If style got translated to switches, Sentido light switches have it full volume. Using Patented Multi-touch technology, Basalte has designed Sentido switches.
Each such switch is simple, yet, spells comfort, elegance and quality. Far from the jarring switch designs in living spaces, it complements the decor of such places. The switch is available on retail in two versions, two-way and four-way.
How does it work? The Sentido light switch uses patented multi-touch technology to detect a multiple keypress. By touching more than one area simultaneously, an extra comfort function is activated. This can be used to switch all the lights in the room on or off in a single movement instead of multiple movements.
It features a timeless design that would become relevant after decades too, using the soft touch technology and high-quality material.
The touch-sensitive surface is brushed with aluminum, and controls scenes or curtains with a mild touch and effortless ease.
The switch has a built-in temperature sensor. It means you get an idea of room temperature on the home automation system. It also has an integrated color LED that you can program to light up blue and locate it in the dark too. The switch has an integrated bus-coupler to connect to the worldwide KNX standard.

Technology has indeed taken BBQ grills to newer levels, but this time we spotted creativity doing a real slick job with the whole outdoor cooking regime. And in all fairness, we are completely blown away by it.

This time it is a truck, or should we say Ford truck to be precise, that is at your service to cook up some crunchy meats and breads for you on the go.
This one comes decked with all the high-tech gadgets giving one the ultimate in tailgating. In fact, it might just remind you of the Fire Truck grill that was launched last year. Well, the two are different and you will know once you take a look at the Ford Truck grill’s price tag which is a huge $15,000.
