On January 09, 2024, Samsung shared a quick review of its vision that was announced at the press conference of CES 2024. Samsung explained how artificial intelligence (AI) can help people experience their devices more intuitively and conveniently than ever before.
Jong-Hee (JH) Han, Vice Chairman, CEO and Head of Samsung’s Device eXperience (DX) Division, opened the press conference by describing how AI will enable connected technologies to improve people’s daily lives while always remaining nonintrusive and “in the background.” The strategy that he and others outlined focused on the role of AI in enhancing connected experiences that are both simple and useful. Throughout the press conference, Samsung presented a number of products and services that help achieve these aims.
“With the emergence of artificial intelligence, smarter, better experiences will redefine how we live,” Han said. “Samsung’s broad portfolio of powerful devices, along with the pursuit of open collaboration, will help bring AI and hyper-connectivity to all.”
AI-Enabled Visual Display Products
At the CES 2024 press conference, Jonathan Gabrio, Head of Connected Experience Center at Samsung Electronics America, explained the utility of AI technology in Digital Appliances. For example, Samsung Neo QLED 8K QN900D boasts a built-in AI Processor, NQ8 AI Gen 3, equipped with an 8 times greater AI neural network and a two times faster NPU than its predecessor.
The all-new Samsung TV is capable of enhancing low-resolution content to provide users with up to 8K quality viewing experience and sharpens fast-moving images via AI Motion Enhancer Pro.
More enhancement on Ballie, the rolling Samsung AI robot
Samsung has also made major upgrades to Ballie, the rolling AI robot first introduced at CES 2020. Ballie has now evolved into your AI companion capable of interacting with other smart devices to provide customized services such as taking care of bothersome tasks or projecting images and videos on walls so that users can view key information for their daily lives such as weather or other relevant content wherever they are.
Samsung revealed New Intelligent Connectivity Features on Galaxy Book 4 Series in Collaboration with Microsoft
Samsung collaborated with Microsoft to create new, seamless connected experiences with the new Galaxy Book 4 Series.
Multidevice Connectivity with Microsoft Copilot
Using intelligent, intuitive AI capabilities, Microsoft Copilot connects the Galaxy Book4 series with your smartphone to make them work seamlessly together. Microsoft Copilot empowers you to find, read or summarize text messages from your Samsung Galaxy phone and even automatically create and send messages on your behalf directly from your PC.
Transform Your Smartphone into a Powerful PC Camera
Samsung has officially confirmed that you can now turn your Galaxy Book 4 into a PC webcam using your phone camera, for example, letting you access Galaxy smartphones’ powerful cameras for video calls on virtual conferencing apps such as Microsoft Teams.
This powerful, portable webcam functionality enhances any camera experience so users can enjoy both high-quality smartphone visuals and unrestricted PC productivity at the same time.
Spatial Intelligence and Bixby improvement
As per the Jaeyeon Jung, Executive Vice President and Head of SmartThings, now there are several new ways in which AI technology is impacting the relationship between users and their devices, including Samsung’s vision for SmartThings.
For your information the Samsung Spatial AI is the key to enabling this vision, by helping devices understand the living space and routines of the user, thus enabling more a personalized home management experience. SmartThings uses LiDAR9 on connected devices like robot vacuums to create digital floor plans so users can easily check the status and location of all their devices.
In March, SmartThings will roll out the upgraded 3D Map View for a more detailed experience on Samsung smartphones and TVs. Furthermore, a simple QR code will allow users to add family and friends to their SmartThings ecosystem, so that every member of the household can create their own routines.
Samsung says “Bixby can now automatically route commands to the most appropriate devices based on an understanding of the user’s location and activities. Key technologies like Multi Device Wakeup combined with a shared communication protocol, enable Bixby to listen to commands with all the devices in a room but then only perform the requested action on the most relevant device. So if a user is in the kitchen watching a recipe video on their Family Hub™, and they can call out, “Hey, Bixby! Play music!” At that point, music will play from the user’s smart speaker, but the recipe video will continue to play on the Family Hub™, uninterrupted.”
