Inside HCA's booth at CES,LG will be exhibiting its latest smart home appliances – including the MoodUP™ refrigerator,WashTower™ laundry solution,ARTCOOL Gallery air conditioner and Puri with Care™ AeroTower™ – together with those from other alliance members. Visitors will be able to see the realization of HCA's "Any app to any device" vision,which presents users with the ability to manage each brand's products via each brand's smart control app,such as LG's intuitive ThinQ app. This new level of interoperability is currently supported by HCA member companies including LG.

Utilizing existing industry standards to define Cloud-to-Cloud (C2C) interoperability guidelines,the new HCA Specification 1.0 has been established to ensure that home appliances,TVs and HVAC systems can interoperate seamlessly with one another,irrespective of brand. In addition to newly-launched models,consumers can continue using the smart home appliances and HVAC solutions,customers have already owned at home and are covered by HCA Specification 1.0,without having to install any major firmware updates.

Furthermore,HCA Specification 1.0 will help member companies to make the smart home more sustainable in the future,leveraging data collected from across alliance members' appliances to gain insight into usage and improve energy management.

"As a member of HCA,LG is contributing to the realization of a safe,secure and interoperable connected home ecosystem,"said Lyu Jae-cheol,president of the LG Electronics Home Appliance & Air Solution Company.
