Smart devices, smart homes, smart cities...what is smart living to you?
Smart living is essentially about harnessing technology to add control, connectivity and convenience to our everyday lives. Whether we’re looking at smart living from a macro lens in terms of national infrastructure and organisational evolutions, or a micro lens in terms of the individual’s activities, this innovation aims to seamlessly inject technology into our lives where technology can serve to simplify tasks.
One good example is Samsung Connect, which is the medium that allows products to “speak” the same language, presenting users with a single point of control. Imagine a smart home programmed to complement your living habits; knows what appliances to turn on when you step in and what appliances to switch off when you are ready for bed. Today, this imagination is a reality that comes to life and the possibilities are endless.
How does Samsung play into this future?
We are accelerating the realization of the Samsung smart home vision. SmartThings Cloud announced at this year’s Samsung Developer Conference will unite all our IoT clouds into a single powerful platform. This will be an open ecosystem, ready to work with not only Samsung devices, but a wide range of connected devices. Another important announcement is Bixby 2.0. Bixby will act as the controlling platform of your connected device ecosystem, including mobile phones, TVs and even home appliances to make the smart home experience even smarter.
