Ottawa, Aug 30 (IBNS): Google has decided to venture into the household by providing services through a range of appliances, media reports said.

The Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL.O 0.96%) unit said on Wednesday that its voice based chat service became compatible with a range of household appliances like refrigerators, vacuum and many others.

Google is hoping that its chat-bot can venture into the household and be the driver in online commerce.

Google said the assistant would soon be into the vaccum, sprinklers.

The company also launched new speakers which is first beyond Google's own home device made by a Chinese start-up Panasonic Corp. and Mobvoi.

Samsung Electronics Co. is absent from Google's partner list as it is planning to launch its own services.
