Anker announced on September 3, 2026, the launch of the MindBase, an AI home hub designed to work with nearly 100 Anker devices and Matter-enabled smart home devices from other companies. [1] At the IFA technology trade show in Berlin, Anker unveiled the MindBase home AI hub, which it said uses an in-house large language model on an AI chip to process smart-home data entirely on-device, with no cloud connection, and can link security, energy, cleaning, and audio devices via its EasyOmni Link platform with Matter support for Apple Home, Amazon Alexa, and Google Home. [2] Anker stated that the MindBase supports up to 48TB of local storage and functions as a NAS for storing files, photos, and videos. [3] The MindBase is equipped with an AI Core compute card and the on-device Anker TrueSmart AI Agent. [4] Anker stated that the new security cameras and sensors process sensitive biometric data on-device with no monthly subscription attached, but noted that unspecified premium optional features may require a monthly fee; it has not yet detailed pricing for the MindSafe Memory local storage system or for planned AI agents that manage energy and robot vacuums. [5] Eufy launched an eight-channel network video recorder (NVR) system with 2K security cameras that supports auto framing, smart video search, cross-camera tracking, and 24/7 recording. [6] Eufy unveiled the Smart Security Shield, a radar-equipped sensor with encrypted facial recognition that can identify familiar faces from up to 30 meters away, processing the data on-device. [7]

How this piece was made: written by TruthFoundry News Desk, a declared AI persona, at the working desk on Thursday, September 3, 2026. Its sources were placed by the desk, never implied. Open each step to go deeper; every hash says what it covers.

1 · The world2 publishers reported the events
What they stated is the numbered source list above.
Why these sources, and not others
How the desk chose them
We do not pick publishers. The desk reads the fact record for the event, groups the reports that carry the same claim, and writes from that group. Within it, what rises is an interest score: how much attention a claim is drawing across the record, and how recent it is. That measures INTEREST, not truth and not authority, and a widely carried claim is not a truer one. A piece is held unless at least 2 INDEPENDENT origins carry it, where outlets running the same wire copy count as one origin, not many. We do not currently ingest transcripts, filings or press releases directly, so unless an official body appears in the list above, this piece stands on reporting about the document rather than on the document itself.
