Samsung Neon Might Bring Us a Step Closer to a Black Mirror-like Future

Samsung is working on an aggressive 'artificial homo' project dubbed Neon under its STAR Labs subsidiary. The company has been teasing the projection, creating more mystery than answering questions, on social media for a few weeks now. Withal, nosotros've recently received a first look at what Neon volition exist and volition go an in-depth glimpse of the future at CES 2020 tomorrow.

Samsung'due south Neon projection is led by Pranav Mistry, who's well-known as a homo-computer interaction researcher and the CEO of STAR Labs. He took to Twitter over the weekend to share the first look at Neon, a digital avatar that may ane solar day get the smartphone or PC companion nosotros've been waiting for.

Mistry tweeted out the image of one of Neon's avatars (there are perhaps 4 digital avatars right at present, as per an official promo leak), along with the caption – "Flight to CES tomorrow, and the code is finally working 🙂 Ready to demo CORE R3. It can now autonomously create new expressions, new movements, new dialog (even in Hindi), completely different from the original captured data."

Core R3 is the applied science that forms the footing of the Neon projection and is an abbreviation for 'Reality. Realtime. Responsive," as revealed in one of the recent teasers on Twitter. It means the digital avatars (which have been created based on actual humans just interact based on AI and motorcar learning algorithms backing them) will expect real and respond in real-time based on the user's queries.

In addition, unlisted videos extracted from the source code of Neon'southward official website give us a look at some other digital avatars. The avatars, first shown off on Reddit, look pretty life-like and don't seem digital renders at all. It would be interesting to run into how Samsung managed to create these avatars with similar-like deportment and emotions. Merely, I'yard sure Neon hits close heart for Black Mirror fans who have seen something as bizarre (and even more futuristic) in one of the episodes.

Samsung volition talk about this Bixby upgrade, or maybe a totally unlike digital banana on Tuesday during its keynote presentation. So, stay tuned for more information on Neon, how it came to exist, and what it hopes to achieve downwards the road. Nosotros too are super excited to check out this project and will try to bring you lot on-ground alive coverage of the bogus humans.
