Virtual Chef Arriving To A Kitchen Near You

The technology is made possible by pairing a Cloud Connected Smart Thermometer called the FireBoard, with a device enabled with Alexa voice recognition software.  The FireBoard is a 6 channel, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth thermometer available via Kickstarter at a discounted price of $149.

Alexa enabled devices include the Amazon Echo, Dot, Tap and the Fire TV.

According to FireBoard founder Ted Conrad, adding voice integration to the FireBoard was a natural extension of FireBoard's existing software.  "The main goal of the FireBoard is to make it easier to monitor temperature, and by adding Alexa skills, our users can now get temperature updates hands free."   

FireBoard provides iOS, Android and web applications for users to check their realtime temperatures or receive alerts remotely, wherever internet is available.  The FireBoard cloud based thermometer also serves as a data logger, keeping a history of previous cooking activity.
