Samsung plans to unveil three new projects at CES 2018, developed from its C-Lab (Creative Lab) programme, namely its S-Ray portable directional speaker, the GoBreath system and new Relumino glasses. It will also showcase the new products released by seven start-ups spun off from C-Lab. These include LinkFlow, Kitten Planet, lululab, Kidsoft, Mangoslab, Innomdle lab, and analogue plus.
The S-Ray (Sound-Ray) portable directional speaker which users can carry anywhere. Samsung said the speaker is much smaller, lighter and portable with its unique system module, but still provides the advantages of conventional directional speakers and earphones. S-Ray helps people avoid having to put on earphones for a long time and avoids the distractions to others Bluetooth speakers can cause. At CES 2018, S-Ray will showcase a variety of product options such as Neckband, Handy and smartphone cover.
The second product introduced will be GoBreath, a recovery system for people who have experienced lung damage and suffer from postoperative pulmonary complications after general anesthesia. It is a portable device and mobile app that can teach patients basic techniques such as inspiration, coughing or deep breathing. Patients can refer to exercise guidelines and check how well their lungs have recovered through the app. The product also offers a web and cloud service for doctors to help them monitor patient recovery as well as provide reminders to practice.
Finally, Samsung will show off its Relumino glasses, smart visual aid eyeglasses to help people with vision challenges see images clearer when they are reading a book or viewing an object. The Relumino app was first showcased at Mobile World Congress 2017. The glasses were developed after. They work together with a smartphone, using its processors and batteries. Samsung said this makes the glasses light and comfortable to wear. The smartphone processes images from videos projected through the camera of the glasses, and the processed images are floated into the display of the Relumĭno glasses to help the wearer see things better.
