Panasonic and Drop Collaborate to Bring Kitchen Success

LAS VEGAS, Jan. 6, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Panasonic today announced that they are collaborating with Drop, the leading smart kitchen platform, to simplify the lives of home cooks using their appliances. With customized navigation, users will have access to advanced features like resizing recipes or offering substitutions for missing ingredients. 

"Meal preparation can be a daily challenge," said Fumi Usuki, IoT Business Development Senior Manager at Panasonic. "This collaboration offers an articulated solution, providing adjustable step by step instruction and an additional value proposition to consumers using our appliances."
