Faber received the Innovation Award at Smau, a reference event in the innovation and digital industry, held in Milan. The award was assigned to the Italian specialist of kitchen hoods for its J-Project, the first ever open source hood. The model is a really vertical hood that, thanks to the new Nautilus diffuser, with very small dimensions, achieves the highest energy performance, reaching the A class. Moreover it is fully integrable with the Arduino platform, being totally open source.
«J-Project – explains Andrea Coccia, Faber appliances innovation manager – is the first tangible application of the IOT (Internet of Things) and Robotics, in the world of kitchen hoods. It has been developed with the collaboration of five young engineers of the Faber Tech team who have integrated open source software, smart technologies, robotic engineering and industry-leading know-how.»
