On Sunday, April 14, Samsung Electronics Co. revealed that it will team up with FLOW, an American real estate firm, to promote shared residential smart homes in the United States. The South Korean electronics firm will install its SmartThings IoT platform at a residential complex in Miami, Florida.
Building a Smart Apartment in the US
Smart Through this partnership, Samsung Electronics will supply its cutting-edge home appliances and lifestyle products, including washing machines, refrigerators, projectors, and dryers, to around 422 households that will move to the complex this year. According to The Korea Economic Daily, the company will link all the appliances to the SmartThings platform.
Once activated, the SmartThings-linked smart apartment complex will use sensors and AI solutions to adjust humidity, lighting, and temperature. The system will make adjustments based on the lifestyle pattern of the apartment owner.
Samsung's SmartThings provides a coordinated platform for IoT appliances and devices to interoperate, allowing smarter living solutions to make life easier. By applying a customized solution based on artificial intelligence (AI), Samsung can help apartment residents enjoy an optimized smart home living environment.
Innovative Home Management
According to Chosun Business, Samsung Electronics will also provide home management solutions to the residents of the Miami apartment complex. This will allow households to save on their energy bills and help reduce the building's overall energy usage.
Samsung Electronics said this is possible since its SmartThings platform will optimize lighting and air conditioning. The sensors will turn off lights when not in use, saving energy. Lastly, the system automatically connects to Samsung's after-sales service center when a problem occurs with the smart home appliances.
"We will continue to develop the shared smart home business based on the competitiveness of solutions such as SmartThings," Park Chan Woo, Samsung Electronics' vice president, said in a statement.
