As it does at this time of the year, Samsung announced the C-Lab incubator project at the 2022 International Consumer Electronics Show with the purpose of evaluating customer responses and furthering the most promising ideas. This year's star project is ZamStar, a combination of guitars and apps designed to make collaboration and learning easier. Other notable projects include an artificial intelligence solution that helps children develop good smartphone habits, and a parenting phone that can detect infant strabismus (crossed eyes) early.
ZamStar samanstendur af forriti og sérsniðnum gítar sem heitir ZamString. Hugmyndin er að þú getur spilað hluta á gítarinn, bætt við effektum og síðan samstillt við aðra tónlistarmenn um allan heim. Þetta er augljóslega eftirlíking af COVID-19 TikTok tónlistarsamstarfsstefnunni (munið eftir þeim frá byrjun þessa árs), og hugmyndin er að gera tónlistina þína auðvelt að samstilla. Á sama tíma er ZamString gítarinn með gripborði, sem er upplýst af inntak lagsins, sem gerir það auðvelt fyrir þig að finna út hvar þú átt að setja fingurna. Þetta er ekki nýtt hugtak, en það gæti verið það fyrsta sem sameinar nám og samvinnu.
At the same time, Piloto is what Samsung calls an "artificial intelligence solution to help children cultivate the correct habits of using smartphones." Its purpose is to teach children "self-regulation skills" on smart devices and help them make the right choices. Finally, Innovision is "an eye care system in daily life. There is a nursery mobile phone that can capture suspicious symptoms of strabismus and monitor the baby's visual ability development." This seems to be a smart idea, because the baby naturally looks at the phone. .
In addition to the internal incubator, Samsung's C-Lab also supports nine start-ups, including an AI-based pet biometric solution called Petnow. All these projects will be displayed in their own booths at CES in 2022. So far, Samsung seems to still plan to participate in the event, and has not followed the pace of other exhibitors (Google, Lenovo, Intel, Amazon, Meta, T-Mobile) to cancel.
