Amazon is reportedly working on a smart refrigerator that could track stored food and make it easier to order items through the company's ecosystem. To turn this idea into reality, the e-commerce giant apparently plans to leverage some of the technology already used in its Amazon Go cashierless stores.

Is there anything that's not set to become "smart"? From watches and glasses to bath mats and refrigerators... Indeed, according to BusinessInsider sources, Amazon is working on a smart fridge capable of tracking the food stored inside and quickly reordering more when stocks run out. Its code name is Project Pulse.
