hi I'm Megan willerton for cnet here again at the first build facility in Louisville Kentucky with the smart pitcher basically it takes a regular picture add some smart sensing technology and makes it a lot easier for you to fill up your picture so this picture is outfitted with two magnets and the dispenser kit inside is outfitted with two reed switches the first reed switch comes in contact with a magnet and lets you know that the pitcher is there the second reed switch is built on a float so as the water fills up it comes into contact with the reed switch and tells it to stop the water and there you have an autofill pitcher that's built into your refrigerator first build will be selling these pitcher kits on their website but you can fit to your refrigerator but it's only going to be available right now on one frigerator model you will also have the option of buying the refrigerator with the kit already built in this is definitely something that's geared around the maker movement something for someone who really likes DIY you have to drill a hole into the back of the fridge but that's the extent of the installation process so it's pretty simple and if you're interested in kind of an entry-level DIY that has a pretty practical application I think this might be an interesting way to start
