Samsung has announced it is introducing a new category of “AI-native devices,” with the first product, code-named “Project Moohan,” scheduled for an official reveal on October 21st.
These devices will operate on the Android XR platform, which has been co-developed with Google and Qualcomm. The platform is described as being optimized with embedded AI from its foundation, designed to be open and scalable for various future form factors.
“Project Moohan” is the first product to be built on this new platform. The company states that the device is intended to blend everyday utility with immersive extended reality (XR) experiences. Earlier reports revealed that it will be called the Galaxy XR, and it is said to feature two micro-OLED displays, each with a 4K resolution and up to 29 million pixels.
It will be powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon XR+ Gen 2 spatial computing platform and along with sensors to track gestures and eye movement.
The official launch event will be streamed live on the Samsung Newsroom and Samsung’s official YouTube channel. The broadcast is set to begin on October 21 at 10 p.m. ET (7:30 am IST on October 22nd).
Samsung has already started perseverations in the U.S. that will give you USD 100 credit when you purchase the headset.
