Artificial Intelligence (AI) in smart phones

Just seen Samsung Galaxy S3 Ad in Television got more curious what new is in Galaxy and what difference it has than Apple 4S. Then gone to Samsung website about Galaxy S3, what I see there they have introduced few Artificial Intelligence features in Galaxy S3. They called it as SMART Stay and Direct call.

Smart Stay is a feature which uses the front facing camera to track your eyes. When the phone detects you have looked away from the device, it will dim the display and switch off the screen. The screen maintains a bright display as long as you're looking at it. What it means as long as you are reading anything it will continue at full brightness. So it is a very good feature given in a Galaxy S3. It is gone save battery of your handset. According to Samsung “it waits till you are sleep”. Very smartly they have tag lined its feature.

Direct call When you are viewing or writing a text message, browsing a contact or checking a missed call, the phone will call the person if you raise the device to your ear. I don’t know how much it will be useful in day to day life. Because it hardly happens that when you are writing a message to a person, you want to call him immediately that time. But this feature can be useful in other way that you don’t have to dial that person number just go to the message and bring the handset to near to your ear it will automatically connect to that person. It will save your time many times. Here also Samsung present this feature as “It knows when you want to talk”.

It’s good to see that Samsung has introduced AI in Smartphone. Hopefully in near future other companies like Nokia and Apple provide new AI feature in their handset. All this going to very useful to consumers and make everyone life easy. We have already seen how AI is useful in day to day life.
