Take a look at the best, worst and weirdest technology on display at the Smart Kitchen Summit, a trade show dedicated to connected kitchen appliances and devices.
Kenmore Smart Refrigerators

Crepe Robot
Cooking robots like this Crepe Robot were big at this year's Smart Kitchen Summit.

GammaChef
GammaChef is a cooking robot that automatically dispenses ingredients and cooks a meal with a robotic stirring arm.
RF cooking technology
This concept countertop cooker uses radio frequency (RF), a type of electromagnetic wave, to cook food. Microwaves use this same type of energy, but on a different frequency.

Vulcan
This device, called Vulcan, is designed to make normal appliances smart.
Vulcan
You plug appliances into the Vulcan, which also connects to a temperature probe. You can then work with an online recipe app to control the appliance, so when the Vulcan's temperature sensor detects that your food has reached the correct temperature, it can control the appliance's power.
Loki Smart Meat Thermometer
This Wi-Fi-enabled temperature sensor can measure the temperature of the food you're cooking and the ambient temperature of the grill, smoker or oven in which you're cooking.
PantryChic
The PantryChic is a storage and dispense system for ingredients like flour and sugar.
PantryChic
You put your dry goods in PantryChic's SmartCanisters, and the PantryChic will automatically dispense the right amount of the ingredient based on the recipe you're making.
Innohome Stove Guard
This device is designed to be placed around your stove and detect high temperatures to prevent cooking fires.
