South Korean technology major Samsung earlier this week offered a sneak at the company's upcoming new AI-powered Bespoke home appliances.

They will come equipped with inbuilt Wi-Fi, internal cameras and a dedicated AI chip.

For instance, the upcoming new Bespoke Refrigerator will feature an AI vision camera that helps in automatic food recognition of up to 33 food items initially.

The number of items that can be identified will increase over time depending on the storage done by the user over time. The refrigerator, through its screens, suggests what to cook for lunch or dinner, based on the food items stored.

And, with the new smart food management system, the fridge will notify users when a specific food item is about to expire.

Also, Samsung will soon introduce a new smart AC. They will come with AI Geo-fencing features. This allows users to set commands and the SmartThings application will send the owner a notification to start or turn off your appliances when he/she is within a specified range or moving away from the range. The specified range is between 150 meters to 30 metres.

Samsung has plans to bring AI-powered microwave ovens and washing machines as well.

The new Samsung Bespoke AI-based home appliances will come with an energy-efficient system. The AI Energy Mode can give up to 10 per cent energy savings in refrigerators, up to 20 per cent in Air conditioners and up to 70 per cent in washing machines. This will greatly reduce the monthly electricity bill.
