Xiaomi has been investing and developing a lot of new products lately, and not just phones. One of the strangest was an air purifier, launched last December. Dubbed Mi Air Purifier, the device in question is capable of producing 10,000 liters of clean air per minute and offers the possibility of being controlled from the smartphone. But if we believed that we had already seen everything, attention, because the Asian will dare to enter the field of drones. Xiaomi could have invested in a company specializing in them to create your own device called Flymi.

 In this case, Xiaomi only act as a shareholder and a share of the profits from sales of this model would take, which would be a great support for the company that develops the drone. Apparently, would have already made a first prototype, but because of its resemblance to the popular Phantom, which is already available on the market, would be working on another. It is not yet known when it will be available for sale, but we hope to make his appearance before the end of this year. With the landing of a drone, we can say that Xiaomi will continue to consolidate as one of the largest companies of recent times.

 The firm dares to delve into all sectors. Recently it did in the video game with the introduction of a new joystick Bluetooth which they christened as Xiaomi Gamepad. As is usual in their products, the most interesting is its price. This Gamepad Android hit the market with a lower value at 14 euros. The connectivity using the command is Bluetooth 3.0. Thanks to her, we can play, not only in our smartphone or tablet, too, why not a SmartTV or the recently introduced Xiaomi Box Mini.

 The Chinese firm also showed the end of 2014 the result of over $ 25 million invested in iHealth Labs. It was about iHealth, a dock for your smartphone that becomes your own personal health center. And again, low cost price. The dock will be available for 30 euros and will be accompanied by its own smartphone application. States may check our blood pressure (including systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure) and our heartbeat. The dock includes blood pressure cuff as usual. The phone app will be responsible for implementing operations and save your record or monitor.

 What else do we have? As they did in the Apple, Samsung or Google currently presented its proposals for automation control systems, Xiaomi also wanted to compete here with great technology. Last October presented three devices and a command center to control them all. Among them is an intelligent webcam, smart and intelligent bulb socket. With the command center of the entire automation system proposed Xiaomi, we can therefore control any device connected smart as television, music player and even air conditioning or heating. Yes, there is nothing that can resist the Asian.
