Samsung has reportedly completed the development and mass production of the Bot Fit, and the company plans to launch its first wearable assistive robot in the third quarter of this year.

From what the report tells us, Bot Fit is designed to help individuals with limited mobility and enhance physical activity. Samsung has been offering prototypes of Bot Fit to senior communities since late last year and plans to enter the B2C market within the year.

In order to strengthen its robotics business, Samsung has restructured its organisation by disbanding the robotics business team in its device experience division and reassigning research and development staff under the leadership of its chief technology officer, according to the report. A Samsung representative explained, "The R&D team has completed the development of Bot Fit and is preparing for the next step. The reorganisation is aimed at strengthening the robotics business."

In addition, Samsung appointed Cho Hye-kyung, a robotics expert and professor of applied artificial intelligence at Hansung University, as a new outside director. Last year, Samsung Research hired former NVIDIA engineer Kwon Jung-hyun as an executive, further enhancing its robotics expertise.

The report also revealed that Samsung is also developing a next-generation humanoid robot, a project that has received strong interest from Samsung Chairman Lee Jae-yong.

Samsung was scheduled to release the GEMS Hip assistive robot in limited quantities in December 2022 and begin mass production in the second half of 2022, however this plan did not materialise. in November 2023, Samsung renamed it Bot Fit.

In addition, another South Korean company, LG Electronics, will be showcasing its service robot, CLOi, which uses Google's generative AI model Gemini, at the Google Cloud Summit on 27 June. the two companies have been working together since last year, and it could be available in the second half of this year.
