There are plenty of home automation devices based on powerful AI systems that run in the background, but Duo is something different. Duo is a digital AI butler in a mirror. Need a recipe for a special meal? Ask Albert. Need help tying a tie? Ask Albert. Local restaurant recommendations and an Uber ride there? You guessed it, ask Albert. Where Duo really sets itself apart is the 27″ 1080p HD display with 5-point multi-touch that functions as a home command center in addition to being a perfectly good mirror. You can sync it up with everything from Spotify and your calendar to a Ring doorbell and a smart thermostat to get daily reminders, see who’s at the door and even adjust the temperature—without ever having to pull your phone out of your pocket or take it off the charger. If having a Tony Stark-esque digital butler isn’t cool enough, you can change Albert’s name, gender, accent and even the jokes it tells.
