Bixby Vision is a feature built into some Samsung Galaxy models that enhances the camera app with artificial intelligence. Using the phone’s camera, you can use Bixby Vision to identify places and objects the camera can see, shop for products you photograph, translate text, and more.
Awesome hidden feature in Bixby Vision on Samsung Galaxy phones gets an update!
Bixby Vision is a combination of several related technologies. Because it takes action based on what the software in the camera detects, it's part of the personal assistant. In fact, it's the vision component of Bixby, Samsung's personal assistant that's supposed to work in much the same way as Apple's Siri and Google's Google Assistant.
It’s also partly an augmented reality application. Augmented reality overlays graphics and information on real-world images. In the case of Bixby Vision, Bixby identifies things in the camera view and can change their appearance (such as when it translates strange text) or overlay options for you to take action on, such as shopping for an item you point the camera at.
Behind the scenes, this is all possible because Bixby Vision is built on an artificial intelligence-driven machine learning platform.
