Another featured lineup is AIoT World, centered around Sharp’s unique synthesis of AI and IoT. “AIoT World extends the smart home concept beyond the home itself with a network of AI-enabled IoT devices which constantly monitor users’ lifestyles and offer optimal services and solutions whether at home, at work, or on the move,” said Ishida.

“In Japan, Sharp’s vision of People-Oriented IoT is already exemplified by over 150 products in 10 categories, including kitchen, pet care and audiovisual solutions. And we plan to roll out such items to other markets according to local needs, lifestyles, and culture.”
Along with various other home appliances, the booth also showcases Sharp’s recently acquired Dynabook brand of notebook computers, highlighted by Ishida as another key element of the company’s vision: “Combining the Dynabook brand with our AIoT and 8K solutions, we will explore new possibilities for computers to offer innovative experiences to both business users and individual consumers around the world.”
