I am 46 years old and my hobbies are no longer traveling abroad, playing video games or going to watch the latest movies at the cinema. The truth is that when life gets dark, home is no longer a place to stop but the best relaxation room to unwind after 5 days of work.
A week ago I was invited to attend the Samsung Southeast Asia Technology Seminar in Bangkok, I was given a little taste of how life can be more pure, relaxing, healthy, comfortable and relaxing with the help of AI.
All this is done using their latest home appliance ecosystem in the form of refrigerators, washing machines, dryers, vacuum cleaners, robot vacuum cleaners and air conditioners.
Samsung Suci
The main tasks I often do on weekends as a responsible modern husband are helping my wife wash clothes and clean the floor. This is not because I am a feminist and justice fanatic but because these are the two easiest tasks to do and allow me to move a few four-legged bones on the weekend.
At the seminar, Samsung Bespoke AI Jet Ultra's artificial intelligence (AI) function ensures that the issue of missing phone calls or important notifications from the phone will not happen again. This vacuum cleaner will automatically stop when the user's Galaxy phone rings. Dirty areas in the house can be cleaned easily without having to worry about important phone calls not being answered while doing so.
Samsung Relax
Next, if you are not diligent enough to clean the floor of the house yourself, Samsung's robot vacuum cleaner can do it for you. AI technology is paired with lidar and cameras to identify dirt on the floor. Therefore, the issue of cables getting stuck or dirt being sucked in that should not happen.
I have two "furry children" at home. Both cats that I bought are very cute but have a habit of regurgitating food or fur balls. Samsung's latest robot is smart enough not to suck up this dirt and instead uses the built-in floor mop mode. Unfortunately, the robot that I was shown is not yet on sale because it solves the universal problem of all cat (and dog) owners worldwide since humans began to domesticate them thousands of years ago.
Samsung Healthy
I also had time to use the Bespoke AI Top Load Washer and Bespoke AI Washer and Dryer sets. These two models of washers and dryers are smart enough to identify the amount of water and detergent that needs to be used. This is a feature that I saw on the Samsung Bespoke AI Laundry Combo last year, only in a more affordable package. Unlike the robot above, all the washing machine products shown are already offered in Malaysia.
Samsung Fresh
The freshness of items to be cooked can also be maintained better through several refrigerator models powered by Bespoke AI. Through Bespoke AI, the refrigerator can be accessed through SmatThings, allowing it to be monitored and controlled locally. The Samsung Bespoke AI Side-by-Side Refrigerator also comes with a 9″ screen built into the door. Through this screen, answering phone calls, monitoring smart home cameras and controlling music streaming can be done using the refrigerator.
The most unique feature is that the refrigerator can be opened by simply touching the sensor on the surface of the door or through Bixby voice commands. Electricity consumption can also be reduced by up to 10% using the AI Energy Mode feature.
Samsung Comfort
Finally, after being tired of cleaning the floor, washing the clothes I wore and cooking healthy food for the body, it's time to rest comfortably. If I'm at home, I spend it by streaming videos on the TV or trying to have a video game session for a few hours. The sweat on my body can be dried and sometimes I fall asleep on the sofa/bed while watching TV.
Through Samsung's AI system, the air conditioner will now be set to Good Sleep mode if it recognizes that the user is asleep through the biometric readings of the Galaxy Watch and Galaxy Ring. You can now rest comfortably without being surprised by high electricity bills because the device has been plugged in for too long.
While we're on the topic of electricity, all the electricity consumption of the devices I touch on in this article is related to the SmartThings system. The electricity consumption of each appliance can be monitored and controlled directly from within the SmartThings application in real time.
So what did I learn from this Samsung seminar in Bangkok? We are already living in the future world as predicted 40 years ago. All devices are connected to each other with smart features that were once just science fiction.
