/PRZWT/GUANGZHOU, June 4, 2024 - With the launch of the Samsung Galaxy S24 series at the beginning of the year, Samsung has embarked on a new era of AI artificial intelligence and promised to introduce Galaxy AI to more devices [1]. Driven by this concept, Samsung has decided to add the smart experience of Galaxy AI to the Samsung Galaxy Watch, further strengthening its popular health features. By combining powerful end-to-end AI with a comprehensive Samsung Health app, Samsung will provide users with a more personalized and safe health experience.
Sophisticated intelligent experience, equal emphasis on insight and motivation
Samsung has always been committed to providing an excellent health and exercise experience, providing users with practical and valuable health insights to help them better understand their physical health. The innovative features brought by the combination of Samsung Health and Galaxy AI will bring more comprehensive and in-depth health insights and encourage users to further improve their daily health. The newly launched Energy Score [2] function allows users to better understand themselves and spend each day healthier by comprehensively analyzing personal health indicators such as sleep, average time, sleep time consistency, bedtime/wake time consistency, sleep time, previous day's activities, sleep heart rate and heart rate variability [3]. In addition, the Health Tips [4] feature will provide health insights, exercise motivation, and exercise guidance based on specific goals set by users to help users better achieve their personal health goals.
More accurate, more in place
Accurate and comprehensive health metrics are the foundation for providing users with a better smart health experience. To this end, Samsung is combining advanced AI-based detection tools with enhanced health algorithms to provide more comprehensive, personalized, and effective health insights.
Samsung has also further improved the AI algorithm of the sleep function to provide users with more in-depth sleep quality analysis, and protect their health through stable sleep. A number of sleep indicators have been added to the sleep analysis function. In addition to the previously supported snoring duration, blood oxygen level and sleep cycle, sleep movements, sleep latency, heart rate and sleep breathing rate have also been added. It can provide more detailed and accurate sleep quality analysis to help users further understand their sleep patterns and develop good sleep habits.
In the cognition of the traditional fitness system, physical fitness measurement and training programs often need to be supported by high-tech professional equipment. With the help of Samsung's new motion tracking function, an intelligent, convenient and tailor-made experience will become possible. On the basis of personalized heart rate interval, the addition of detailed aerobic threshold (AT) and anaerobic threshold (AnT) heart rate interval [5] indicators will help users run more efficiently, and at the same time, users can quickly analyze their exercise performance. In the bicycle riding scenario, cyclists can easily calculate the functional threshold power (FTP) index after only 10 minutes of exercise [6], and can obtain a personalized power index based on AI data analytics, thus maximizing the exercise effect. In addition, fitness tracking tools make it easier for users to track their workouts and progress. Users can also use the newly launched daily exercise function to integrate various exercise programs in an orderly manner according to their personal situation, and connect between each program, allowing users to transition to the next exercise without interruption. When running or riding, use the Competition [7] function to compare current and past performance on the same route, record bit by bit progress, and increase the motivation of exercise.
Junho Park, vice-president of the Galaxy Ecosystem Product Planning Team at Samsung Electronics' Mobile Experience Division, said: "Samsung looks forward to deeply empowering the product ecosystem through optimized experiences and smart connectivity, opening up unlimited possibilities for users to be more personalized and intelligent. Introducing Galaxy AI for the Samsung Galaxy Watch will be a new beginning of this process, and in the near future, Samsung will demonstrate more AI integration experiences in the Galaxy product portfolio."
The above-mentioned AI-based innovative features are expected to be officially launched in the second half of this year and will be installed on the One UI 6 Watch system of the new generation of Galaxy Watch products. Samsung's surprises for users are far more than that. More amazing features and experiences that integrate Galaxy AI with advanced hardware will be presented on the upcoming new Samsung Galaxy Watch series products, so stay tuned.
Notes:
1. Some Samsung AI features may require a login to a Samsung account. Samsung makes no promises, warranties or guarantees as to the accuracy, completeness or reliability of the output results of the AI features. The availability of the Galaxy AI features may vary by device model. Currently users can use the Galaxy AI features for free, but in the future Samsung may change some or all of its AI features to paid services. Different terms may apply for AI features provided by third parties.
2. Features are for general health and fitness purposes only. For Android phones (operating system Android 10 or above), you need to use the Samsung Health App (v6.27 or above) and log in to your Samsung account. To view the "Energy Score", the health data tracked by the Samsung Galaxy Watch (Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 or later, Samsung Galaxy Watch) must be synchronized with the Samsung Health App, and at least have activity data from the previous day, sleep data, and heart rate data while sleeping. Service availability may vary by market.
3. It is not intended to replace traditional methods of diagnosis or treatment.
4. Health Tips are available for Android phones (operating system is Android 10 or above). You need to use the Samsung Health app (v6.27 or above) and log in to your Samsung account. The availability of the service may vary by market. The results are for personal reference only. Please consult a professional doctor for advice.
5. When running outdoors, a personalized heart rate range can be enabled. You need to run continuously at a speed of 4km/h or faster for more than 10 minutes.
6. To measure an individual's functional threshold power, a cycling power meter needs to be installed on the bicycle. Connect the Samsung Galaxy smartphone to the power meter, and then connect the Samsung Galaxy Watch to the smartphone to obtain a more accurate indicator. After riding at medium to high intensity for more than 4 minutes, the functional threshold power is automatically calculated. The more times the user rides repeatedly, the more accurate and personalized the indicator calculated through machine learning. The cycling power meter needs to be purchased separately. The average analysis time for functional threshold power of traditional professional equipment is up to 1 hour.
7. The race function is only available for outdoor running and outdoor cycling scenarios. For comparison measurements, you need to run on the same path as the pre-generated path. The user can choose one of the records from up to 14 days ago for comparison. The record comparison function can only be used if you start at the same position as the starting point of the previous record. If the starting point is different, it is automatically converted to running mode.
