Samsung 2012 SMART TV Series with Smart Gestures and SmartFit App [DEMO]

Samsung revealed some of its 2012 "SMART" TVs would include a built in camera and mic to enable a feature it calls Smart Interaction, which is just a brand name for voice and gesture control. The company showed it at the CES booth and we was squeezed between all of those 55-inch OLEDs, I you look at the demo below you will found it mirrored the suddenly common Kinect functionality we have become accustomed to closely.

Samsung setup has a keyword that activates it "Hi TV" and like the recently upgraded Xbox 360 dashboard, there has been a lot of work done to make sure it recognizes many real words. A key difference from the Kinect however, is that Samsung has also developed a Bluetooth-connected IR blaster that can sit in front of your cable box and extend the control to other devices that way.

As you can see on the DEMO Below that the control was generally tight and responsive, however it still lacks truly natural communication and the test volunteer had some trouble turning the TV off. Also the TV has an App called SmartFit that gives you Instructions on How to Work out and get in shape in very simple UI and it reminds to you with your daily training's while you are watching TV... which is the best way to get in Shape!

The Price of the Samsung 2012 SMART HDTV will start at $999 Up to $2,999 for the 65-inch version. The official market prices may vary according to your region.
