Samsung Electronics reportedly filed for new trademark applications for various Extended Reality (XR) products. It was also mentioned that the South Korean electronics firm is currently working on the development of AR-powered glasses called the "Galaxy Ring."
Samsung Electronics' trademark filing is said to be related to gadgets with fresh designs. It comes a month after it revealed its partnership with Qualcomm and Google for cooperation in the development of XR devices.
According to Korea Joongang Daily, the XR, which also refers to virtual reality (VR), mixed reality (MR, and augmented reality (AR) technologies, are being utilized to blend the physical or real world with the digital space. Many companies are making devices for this, and Samsung Electronics is the latest major firm to make it.
One of the trademarks that Samsung Electronics filed is for the "Galaxy Ring" AR glasses. The company made the filing with the Korea Intellectual Property Office (KIPO) last week.
Based on the information from the database of KIPO, Samsung's trademarks include smart rings, smart mobile phones, and other smart gadgets for measuring health and sleep in the form of a ring."
The Samsung Galaxy Ring is designed for tracking health, while the Galaxy Glasses provide a function for augmented reality (AR) experience. This is a wearable device and is assumed to be very similar to a pair of eyeglasses but fitted with a voice feature service.
The Galaxy Ring also offers basic functions such as contactless payments and hands-free phone calls. It can be used when linked with a smartphone or XR device.
"We are developing prototyping technology for XR devices," Samsung's head of smartphone and mobile eXperience business, Roh Tae Moon, said in a statement. "The devices will be released once they are more complete and ready to enter the market."
Business Standard further quoted Roh as saying, "It will take time to introduce new products, but we will make progress and provide you with new updates."
