Samsung's upcoming innovations including NB-IoT NTN satellite comms

At its inaugural Samsung System LSI Tech Day 2023 event in San Jose, Samsung previewed upcoming technological advancements, including:

  • the Exynos 2400 flagship mobile processor with Xclipse 940 GPU, based on the latest AMD RDNA 3 architecture, with substantially enhanced ray tracing capability. The Exynos 2400 processor features a 1.7x increase in CPU performance and a remarkable 14.7x boost in AI performance compared to the previous Exynos 2200 product
  • a new AI tool for upcoming smartphones, demonstrating text-to-image AI generation using its Exynos 2400 reference board
  • Zoom Anyplace technology based on its 200-million pixel image sensor, enabling up to 4x close-ups of moving objects without any image degradation
  • Narrowband Internet of Things (NB-IoT) non-terrestrial networks (NTN) ready next-generation 5G modem
  • A new vision sensor brand, the ISOCELL Vizion; 
  • a Smart Health processor
  • the Exynos Auto V920, an automotive processor slated for mass production in 2025 capable of running several applications across multiple displays;
  • Video demo of NB-IoT NTN satellite communication in collaboration with Skylo Technologies, an NTN service provider, using Samsung’s next-gen modem reference device
  • Live demo of wireless lighting control through its ultra-wideband (UWB) solution, the Exynos Connect U100

“Generative AI has quickly emerged as perhaps the most significant trend of the year, demanding more powerful foundational technologies to process data and bring AI to life,” said Yong-In Park, President and Head of System LSI Business at Samsung Electronics. “We are paving the path toward a new era of proactive AI, leveraging our Samsung System LSI Humanoid platform, which seamlessly converges our capabilities across a broad spectrum of logic semiconductors, from powerful computational IPs, connectivity solutions to sensors emulating the main five human senses.”
