Samsung has been unveiling a multitude of new things at CES this year. Amongst the many new and heady unveilings is a new play a trick on that Samsung is teaching it's personal assistant. Bixby has quietly been learning how to count the calories in your food via Bixby Vision.

Bixby may count calories in the futurity

Samsung says the feature works by pointing the camera directly at an individual nutrient item, which Bixby volition and so place, analyze, and then summate the amount of calories using generic data for the food item.

Manifestly, many people take their own recipes for specific dishes, therefore information technology will not be entirely accurate, but information technology will give a basis for agreement. Representatives did mention that the information collected via Bixby Vision will exist synced with Samsung Health to not only allow one to track their calorie intake but compare it with their daily calorie burn down.

This would definitely simplify the process of scouring Samsung Health for each of the ingredients inside your food, which I take experienced firsthand. Information technology would also be a overnice addition to the growing suite of features Bixby offers.

The feature is in experimental stage currently and Samsung has non confirmed when or if this characteristic will indeed make information technology to Galaxy smartphones. Nonetheless, it is overnice to know that Samsung is actively working to amend Bixby every bit evidenced by this unveiling and last month'southward conquering of South Korean startup Fluently.
