Imagine watching your favorite cooking show and suddenly craving the mouthwatering dish on screen. Thanks to Samsung’s innovative AI-powered TVs and the Samsung Food app, that craving can now turn into action. By leveraging AI vision technology, these TVs can identify food displayed on the screen and provide you with a detailed recipe to recreate it at home.
For instance, if a chef pulls a steaming beef bourguignon from the oven during your favorite cooking show, Samsung Food’s AI can recognize the dish and suggest a recipe directly on your TV. Beyond recipes, the app can also keep you updated on grocery or takeout orders placed via its mobile companion, seamlessly integrating your culinary needs into your living room experience.
Samsung Food has already made waves with features like AI-guided cooking steps and recipe suggestions based on uploaded images. Now, by bringing this functionality to TVs, Samsung is redefining the role of home entertainment. “With Samsung Food, we’re making it possible to bring dishes from TV shows and movies right to your dinner table,” the company explained in a press release.
The system doesn’t stop at recipes. Samsung Food can analyze the contents of your fridge, generate a shopping list of missing ingredients, and even let you order groceries or takeout using partnered apps. You can track deliveries directly from your TV, effectively turning it into a high-tech sous chef.
AI-Powered Groceries and Beyond
Samsung’s AI ambitions don’t end with TVs. The company’s Bespoke refrigerators come equipped with cameras capable of scanning your fridge’s contents. Combined with Instacart’s product-matching system, the fridge can suggest restocking options and allow you to place grocery orders with just a few taps on its touchscreen. This same-day delivery convenience enhances Samsung’s vision of a connected home ecosystem.
Under the branding of Vision AI, Samsung TVs now include several futuristic features like the Click to Search tool, which identifies on-screen actors or filming locations, and Live Translate for real-time subtitle translations. With Samsung Food’s inclusion, your TV becomes an even more integral part of your daily routine.
While these advancements are exciting, they come with limitations. No algorithm will dice onions or ensure your soufflé doesn’t collapse. However, for adventurous cooks, these features could be a game-changer, turning casual TV watching into a culinary adventure. Whether you’re planning to recreate iconic dishes from a movie night or impress dinner guests with AI-curated recipes, Samsung’s Vision AI is paving the way for a smarter, more interactive home.
