Bixby Vision: How the AR assistant works

Augmented Reality means augmented reality. With Bixby Vision, Samsung has developed an in-house variant and made it ready for the market. With us, you can learn what Bixby Vision is all about and how it works.

Samsung's Bixby Vision is a digital assistant that enriches reality with information.

AR links reality and the digital world. Smartphones are driving its spread decisively, for example through Bixby Vision.

Bixby Vision: Augmented Reality in everyday use

Bixby Vision has been permanently installed as a feature on smartphones since the Samsung Galaxy 8 and all more current models. The application runs as follows:

• When using the camera, you can activate Bixby Vision via an icon.
• Thereupon, the camera scans the objects in the viewfinder and tries to identify them via online matching.
• As a result, you get useful information. This can be branded products such as shoes, but also buildings such as churches or skyscrapers.
• All results can be found collected in Bixby Home, which is a kind of digital pinboard.

Bixby Vision is thus one of the first truly practical AR solutions. It is suitable for many purposes and already has a consistently good hit rate. Die Qualität dürfte in Zukunft noch steigen und dabei helfen, Augmented Reality im Alltag zu etablieren.
