What is Bixby, competitor of Siri, the voice assistant of the future?
Bixby, as mentioned above, is a voice assistant. Its task will be to "help the smartphone user to interact not only by voice but also by touch". During the presentation, there were also several demonstrations to better understand how this feature can be used. Its task will be to harmonize the daily visual experience, concentrating it in a single device.
How does Bixby, the new search method, work?
Its main features have been described in three short examples. First of all it will be possible to report your position to a person, to invite them to join us. Through the Google "Maps" application it will be possible, using the voice, to capture the image of one's position, and send it via voice command to the person we have or want to meet.
