Smart Kitchen Innovation in Taipei: Range Hood Turns On Automatically with the Stove

Kitchen appliances are getting smarter, and now even turning on the stove can automatically activate the range hood! ROBAM held the grand opening of its flagship showroom in Neihu, Taipei, on November 13, 2026, showcasing kitchen appliances that combine smart controls with modern design and giving visitors a look at different ways to plan their cooking spaces.

The showroom highlights the Truffle Salt Series kitchen appliance collection, which includes a range hood, gas cooktop, steam oven, and dishwasher. One of its standout features is the synchronized operation of the gas cooktop and range hood. When the burner is turned on, the range hood activates automatically, reducing the need for manual adjustments while cooking.

Beyond smart connectivity, ease of cleaning is another major focus of the showcase. The Truffle Salt Series features nano black crystal stain-resistant panels, which the brand emphasizes are easier to clean. ROBAM has also identified AI cooking technology as a direction for future development. During the opening event, interior designers were invited to share insights into AI and emerging trends in future home living.

Smart kitchen appliances can make cooking more convenient, but choosing the right cookware for everyday use is just as important. The Fiskars Functional Form 24cm Ceramic Nonstick Frying Pan features a Ceratec™ ceramic nonstick coating and a design that distributes heat evenly. Whether you're frying eggs in the morning or preparing a simple home-cooked meal, it's a practical addition to any kitchen.
