AC Future, a sustainable living platforms company, is unveiling the final design of its flagship AI-enabled smart home, developed through a partnership with Southern California-based Hydra Design Labs.
The AI Transformable Home (Ai-TH) project launched in January 2024 as the first product from AC Future aimed at addressing the affordable, sustainable and mobile housing crisis worldwide. The Ai-TH is a zero-emissions housing solution that transforms at the push of a button into a 400 sq. ft. smart home with complete off-grid capabilities, including solar charging, water generation, and internet connectivity.
The Ai-TH concept was first unveiled to the public during the 2024 Consumer Electronics Show (CES). Following CES 2024, AC Future partnered with Hydra Design Labs to turn their original smart home concept into a reality.
Working collaboratively with AC Future, Hydra designed the interior and exterior of the Ai-TH and provided CAD surfacing, Class-A surfacing, Color and Trim design services, and UI/UX design. Finally, Hydra's team brought the Ai-TH to life through engineering and fabrication – producing a functional prototype.
AC Future and Hydra shared updated renderings that showcase the Ai-TH's new design direction and refinements in its technology and appointments, compared to the initial concept. These images give the public a look at the final shape and functionality of the Ai-TH prototype that will be demonstrated at CES 2025.
