As usual, there has been a raft of innovative products showcased at CES 2024. One of the Philips offerings is the 5000 Series Wi-Fi Palm Recognition Smart Deadbolt. The new Philips smart deadbolt features palm sensing technology which allows the user to unlock the door by placing the palm close to the deadbolt.
The Philips smart deadbolt is part of the expanding Philips home security smart lock lineup and will be compatible with the Philips Home Access app. Using the app, users can remotely control the lock system in the house. It is also compatible with smart home assistants like Google Assistant and Amazon’s Alexa.
The new product is Philips’ first-ever smart deadbolt security smart lock. It works using the touch-free palm reading system that allows the homeowner to unlock the door by bringing his palm forward. It automatically detects the unique palm vein patterns using built-in proximity sensors. The Philips smart home security ecosystem includes indoor and outdoor cameras, as well as monitors.
Palm sensing technology is an emerging innovation but several new products are now featuring the technology. The Philips 5000 Series Wi-Fi Palm Recognition Smart Deadbolt will go on sale in the US later in the year. The gadget will retail for $360 in the US but there is no global availability information yet on the product. However, it is expected that the Philips smart deadlock could also berth in a few other markets.
CES 2024 is currently on in Las Vegas, Nevada since January 6 and will end on January 12, 2024. The program is always signposted by a raft of innovative tech offerings by tech brands. This year’s event has already seen several new and upcoming innovative products showcased.
