Customers of Samsung Electronics who previously utilized their Galaxy Watches to locate misplaced phones can now enjoy similar functionality with the company’s newest refrigerator models.
The innovative Bespoke AI-powered refrigerators feature a nine-inch home screen, enabling users to simply say, “Hi Bixby, find my phone.” The updated assistant can recognize the voices of individual family members, allowing it to ring the appropriate device.
In addition to phone-finding capabilities, users can control home air conditioners and window blinds through voice commands, with the system adjusting settings based on real-time weather data.
These advancements were part of the offerings highlighted by Samsung at an event held in Seoul, where the company introduced its new lineup of home appliances for the year. By integrating cutting-edge AI technologies, Samsung seeks to maintain its market leadership while providing a more interconnected and personalized experience across its products, which include robot vacuum cleaners and washing machines.
Moon Jeong Seung, head of the R&D team for Samsung’s digital appliance division, stated during a press conference that the drive to enhance AI features across devices is predicted to increase sales this year.
By leveraging its unique position as a frontrunner in both mobile technology and home appliances, Samsung aims to fortify its ecosystem. The company’s ultimate goal is to create a stronger connection among the half-billion devices it sells globally each year.
