This year at the Samsung booth they're showcasing their brand new redesigned digital cockpit.
What makes this cockpit special is a lot of enhanced safety features, but most importantly, it's the world's first 5G telematics control unit enabling a lot of great features. So when we think about cellular vehicle-to-everything technology, it's about incorporating infrastructure, other vehicles, and even pedestrians to make sure that we have a safer environment for them to operate the vehicle.
So, for example, if an ambulance were to leave the firehouse in order to reach out to an emergency, that ambulance could communicate directly with the infrastructure, individuals around it, and other vehicles to make sure that every light in its path turns green, that crosswalks are stopped so pedestrians aren't trying to cross the street, and other cars in front of it get alerted immediately so they can move out of the way for that emergency vehicle to move forward.
They actually engineered the digital cockpit in partnership with Harman from the ground up. It's running on a Samsung Exynos processor utilizing Samsung QLED and AMOLED technology inside the vehicle. They're partnering to actually deliver this as an OEM solution, and they just had an announcement with BMW where they'll be launching one of their vehicles starting in 2021.
Samsung Ballie is their first personal care robot and companion for houses.
So what makes Ballie so special is not only can it help you do things like check your to-do list and tell you what's on your schedule—it does that customized for each individual user—but inside of it right now is a microphone, a camera, and a speaker so you can interact with the device. The camera on the inside can differentiate between different people's faces, voices, and even pets. So Ballie is able to interact with you throughout the day to help you stay focused but also takes care of things proactively even if you're not at home.
If Ballie were to detect debris on the floor, it can communicate not only with the Powerbot to send it over to clean it up, it can actually help you control all the other IoT products in your home. So if you have an air sensor and it detects any type of impurity in the air, Ballie will pick up the information from that sensor and actually interact with our air bots and tell it to go clean it up.
So, Ballie is a product that they have every intent to manufacture, but right now it is a prototype. But Samsung can conceptualize a lot more features, which is why they're showcasing it here at CES. The future of Ballie is rather undetermined, but there's going to be quite a few things that it can do.
