Amazon and Brita team up for Wi-Fi water pitchers
Back when Amazon first revealed plans for its Dash Replenishment Service, its automatic-reordering system that would be triggered by “smart” appliances, it named Brita as a partner. Now, that partnership has come to fruition. Starting today, Brita will sell a sensor-filled, WiFi-connected Brita pitcher (yes, you read that correctly) that will work with Dash Replenishment Service.
The new pitcher, called the Brita Infinity pitcher, will be able to track how much water is flowing through the pitcher. When approximately 40 gallons of water have passed through the pitcher’s purification filter, the pitcher will then send a signal to the Dash Replenishment Service to reorder more filters.

Perfect simple reason for a sensor-filled home.
