The gentle Samsung robot in the form of the celestial crime gets a Smarts promotion thanks to the Goeni Ai from Google. Robot Home, which will be available this summer, will be able to participate in more advanced conversations with you, your family, friends and guests.

Using voice commands, you will be able to give instructions to Ballie about managing your home environment, including adjusting mood lighting, creating time tables and greeting people at the door (although the robot does not have thumb and has a small position, it is not quite clear how the door will already open).

According to Samsung, Gemini integration will also allow Billy to give design advice when you try to choose what you wear in the morning, indicating accessories or “new colored shirt” (we hope you also know if you have one of this ready to go.

The two companies have a long history of cooperation, and it has been done Work in particular together over the past few years To integrate the latest developments in Amnesty International into Google’s leading Samsung phones, such as Galaxy S25 series.

“By peer of strong media thinking in Gemini with Samsung AI’s capabilities in Ballie, we benefit from the power of open cooperation to cancel the insurance of a new era of personal artificial intelligence – who moves with users, expects their needs, and interacts in more dynamic and meaningful ways ever.” press release.

Bali is slowly floating

When Samsung The veil was first unveiled for Ballie in CES 2020 In Las Vegas, it was not clear whether the robot would make it out of the floor. I have covered robots in CES for nearly a decade, and it is safe to say that most of them are simply concepts that technology companies use to attract crowds and attention. But not my mind.

Bali It has emerged again in CES 2024Then again in the show this year, as Samsung recently announced that the robot will Go for sale in the United States and South Korea In the summer of 2025.

However, Samsung might have that work may be cut to persuade people that they need Ballie in their homes, says Ben Wood, chief analyst at CCS Insight. “Personal robots like Ballie gives the main addresses and consumer imagination, but as Amazon found with Astro Robot, which was launched in 2021, it is a difficult market.”

People are definitely concerned with the idea of ​​home robots, but this does not mean that they will buy them. According to Wood, Amazon is believed to have sold only a few hundred ASTRO units. But the recent developments in artificial intelligence, in addition to rumors, are planning Apple to enter the robots market in the coming years (and Show concepts in the meantimeIt means that there is hope so far on this technology that has been overpowered and finds its way to our homes.

“Samsung will hope to get more success with Ballie, and will make him a more attractive Gemini assistant,” says Wood. “However, the question remains: What do you really need when you have Gemini on the smartphone in your pocket?”

Samsung still has announced Ballie prices, and without that, it is difficult to guess exactly the popularity of Droid Companion. If it is relatively reasonable, it may become the first robot to be welcomed by many people in their families, which destroys Gemini beyond our lives and our homes.
