"This will be the first time this revolutionary technology has been seen in the Middle East," said Mr Kyung Rin An, Manager, LG Electronics Gulf FZE. "We hope, depending upon customer demand, to introduce the Internet-control systems to the region next year."
At the LG Electronics' Big 5 pavilion, visitors will be able to 'test' the system for themselves by controlling a floor-standing LG air-conditioner from a note-book.
"They will be able to switch the a/c on and off and also adapt the temperature as required," explained An. "Internet-control protocol has been launched and well received in the split a/c sector, but the move into the commercial segment has much wider implications, particularly for designers and owners of new generation 'smart' buildings who want optimum energy efficiency."
LG is aiming to be the number one supplier across all a/c sectors in the Middle East by 2005.
