Thailand’s first-ever Taiwan Expo finally hits Bangkok after successful runs in Indonesia, Vietnam, and India over the past several years. Our version of the massive expo—taking over BITEC Bang Na from Aug 30-Sep 1—runs the gamut of flag-bearing expo fare, like tourism and travel deals, career information and truckloads of products to browse, including lots of tech.

One of the more prominent themes of the inaugural edition is smart living technology—basically the catch-all phrase for advanced everyday stuff. There is some eye-opening stuff here. Smart trash bins, anyone?

Air Quality Sensor SAQ-200

Barely survived dusty Bangkok these past months? Get hold of this device whose sensors are capable of detecting cancer factors like PM 2.5, carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, TVOC, temperature and relative humidity. Each comes with wireless technology, high-performance MCU solutions for market usage, and compensated multi-sensing solution integration.

iTrash

Aimed at encouraging more eco-friendly behavior, the world’s first 24/7 garbage disposal and recycling service provides five times more capacity than regular trash cans. On top of airtight deodorant and antibacterial capabilities, and a cloud management system, this user-pay service can be integrated with card or mobile payment, as well as offer rewards to users for recycling.

Magic Flying

Attention thrill-seekers! Step into the virtual world with this four-axis VR product that simulates the act of paragliding in all its extreme glory. Comes complete with energy saving function.

Smart Environmental Analysis

Designed to help enhance environmental governance, the Smart Environmental Analysis platform uses artificial intelligence technology to establish algorythms that can automatically trace pollutions sources. 

Alpas II

This lightweight, unmanned helicopter helps reduce pollution and decrease the manpower required for farming. Equipped with central tank and electrical pump, this helicopter is capable of dispersing agricultural chemicals over a wide area through four high-powered nozzles.
