[CES 2025] A New Era of Personalized Appliances: Samsung Showcases Home AI Innovations

Samsung Electronics redefined its vision for the smart home at CES 2025 in Las Vegas — introducing Home AI, a suite of user-focused AI solutions providing truly personalized services for living spaces. On January 9, Samsung Newsroom visited the company’s Home AI exhibition to experience firsthand the hyper-personalized appliances that embody Samsung’s transformative approach to home living.

Personalized Scheduling Assistance Powered by Bixby’s Voice Recognition

When asked, “Tell me my schedule for today,” Bixby instantly displayed the day’s agenda linked to the connected account on the Bespoke 4-Door Refrigerator with AI Family Hub. Bixby’s ability to distinguish between multiple voices[1] allows each household member to access information from their personal account.[2]

Additionally, Bixby offers an accessibility feature[3] that automatically syncs and transfers phone settings with connected appliances through voice recognition. For instance, if large print mode is activated on a user’s phone to accommodate vision impairments, the setting will automatically sync with the Family Hub refrigerator and display information in the same large text format for improved usability.

In addition, Bixby is useful for retrieving photos or locating a misplaced smartphone.

From Recipe Recommendations To Automated Cooking Settings

▲ Bixby helps make the most of food ingredients.

Bixby generated a list of food ingredients on the refrigerator screen when asked, “Are there any ingredients nearing their expiration date?” Noting that cream cheese and eggs were about to expire, Bixby suggested a selection of dishes when a request was made for recipes using those ingredients. Finally, Bixby promptly began preheating the Bespoke Slide-in Range when instructed to choose the first recipe and send to the oven.

Bixby’s ability to set cooking times and temperatures with just a few simple voice commands highlights the convenience of Samsung’s Home AI technology. Integrated with AI, Samsung’s appliances streamline meal preparation — changing a traditionally time-consuming process into something more efficient and manageable. Bixby and the Bespoke 4-Door Refrigerator with AI Family Hub’s AI Vision Inside feature provide helpful tools for navigating everyday cooking, simplifying the kitchen experience for those who often struggle to decide what to make.

Intelligent Home Monitoring and Management While Users Are Away

▲ AI-powered appliances handle cleaning tasks when users are away and send cleaning report notifications to their smartphone.

Home AI revolutionizes household management by utilizing mobile GPS and appliance sensors to detect when no one is home, enabling devices to automatically initiate regular maintenance tasks.[4]

With schedules set through SmartThings, appliances can begin operations like cleaning and laundry when the house is empty. The Bespoke Jet Bot Combo AI empties its dustbin and cleans the floors, while the Bespoke AI Laundry Combo performs a drum cleaning cycle.[5] Progress can be monitored remotely through SmartThings notifications, such as cleaning reports, delivered directly to smartphones.

Appliances can complete tasks like cleaning and laundry before anyone arrives when users pre-set return times, offering an efficient and hands-off experience. Home AI brings a new level of convenience to daily life, creating a home environment that is consistently comfortable and refreshed.

Intruder Detection and Monitoring for Enhanced Home Security 

▲ The Bespoke Jet Bot Combo AI responds to movement by navigating to the area and monitoring the situation using its camera.

Even when the household is away for an extended period, Samsung’s AI appliances can keep the home safe through real-time video monitoring and intrusion detection. During a demonstration in the Home AI exhibition, sensors in nearby appliances identified movement and directed the Bespoke Jet Bot Combo AI to the detected location. Functioning like a CCTV, the robot vacuum monitored the situation using its camera and sent an alert to the registered user’s account.

In this way, appliance sensors will detect suspicious activity while the user is away if the intruder detection feature[6] is activated. Notifications are sent via SmartThings, allowing users to view live monitoring footage and quickly assess the situation. For an added layer of security, AI appliances can also alert linked security services if they determine the activity to be a potential intrusion.

Reliable AI Appliances, Backed by Robust Security

Above all, Samsung’s interconnected AI appliances offer peace of mind with their robust security features. The company’s smart appliances[7] are safeguarded by the Samsung Knox security solution, protecting personal data from malicious software and external threats while significantly enhancing data safety within the home.

Additionally, appliances connected to Wi-Fi can monitor each other’s security status through Knox Matrix.[8] If a threat is detected, the affected device is disconnected from the network — and the user is immediately notified.

The Home AI exhibition at CES 2025 highlighted unmatched convenience and an impressive array of features, driven by advanced security and voice recognition technology. Samsung’s vision of interconnected AI appliances that seamlessly integrate into the household — proactively supporting and streamlining daily operations — reflects a forward-thinking approach to innovation that is quickly becoming a reality.
