LG Electronics maps out new technological ideas for the future

Published by

LG Electronics has outlined the company’s vision for the future at the just-concluded Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2019, which took place at the MGM Park Theatre in Las Vegas, Nevada, United States.

President and Chief Technology Officer (CTO) of LG, Dr. I.P. Park, while delivering the keynote address at an event recently outlined how the three key pillars of artificial intelligence – Evolve, Connect and Open – could deliver a robust AI ecosystem with diverse solutions for the real world.

A leading proponent of consumer-focused AI technology, LG has continued to take a leadership role in advocating the beneficial role of AI in consumers’ lives.

The keynote featured LG’s AI technologies implemented in daily-life scenarios to give the audience of more than 3,000 industry figures, influencers and journalists a better understanding of how the company is working on transforming tomorrow. The LG CLOi GuideBot shared the spotlight with Park during the address, becoming the first ever robot to help deliver a CES keynote in the process.

“Is technology making your life better?”, Park began his keynote by asking the audience. “Over the past 100 years, household appliances such as refrigerators, washing machines and vacuum cleaners have reduced time spent on housework by around 75 per cent, but the amount of cognitive labour involved has significantly increased.” Park explained, “the answer lies in AI – but only if we can achieve true intelligence.”

Since its launch in 2017, the company’s AI brand LG ThinQ has seen its portfolio grow rapidly to include air conditioners, washing machines, TVs, smartphones and robot vacuum cleaners.

Park presented LG’s latest innovations in these appliances, which leveraged the power of AI: the world’s most advanced AI chip for home appliances, a washing machine with reinforced learning, and “self-healing” machines that can detect and fix malfunctions automatically without interrupting operation.

“But I want to talk about more than just improvements,” Park continued. “Our ambition is to go way beyond LG’s current role as a leading manufacturer of consumer electronics and to become a lifestyle innovator that serves a truly intelligent way of living,” he added.
