The InducTable is a pretty high-tech table, coming equipped with a built-in sensor system and temperature sensitive surface. The InducTable has a metal frame that is made with thermochromic glass-ceramic, which allows the InducTable to transform into a cooking table!
The table is also equipped with a grill and can be transformed into a work station. Its built-in sensors can also sense objects that are near to the table. I wouldn't mind having one of these InducTables in my house.
