There exists a fridge that has the ability to hear and act without being touched. The special fridge, in a recent video shared by Yabaleftonline, drives to its owner when called.
The innovation which is a brainchild of Panasonic, according to TechInsider, uses a tech called LIDAR and deep sensor to make a map of its owner's home for prospective movement purposes.
