  + stars: | 2024-12-13 | by ( John Towfighi | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +5 min
CNN —Google and Samsung are stepping into the wearable headset race. The Samsung headset will be the first product powered by the new Android operating system for XR before the new OS becomes available for other companies to use in their own devices. Android for XR — an umbrella term for various types of virtual and augmented reality — was built in collaboration by Google, Samsung and Qualcomm and will be able to power hardware devices like headsets and glasses. A customer tries on the Apple Vision Pro headset during the product launch at the Apple Store in New York City on February 2, 2024. The Vision Pro, the tech giant's $3,499 headset, was its first major release since the Apple Watch nine years ago.

"So Bixby has been a key voice assistants voice assistant for Samsung not just for the mobile devices, but also for TVs and digital appliances that exist in Samsung's ecosystem. So it has been the core voice assistant assistant so far," Won-joon Choi, executive vice president at Samsung's mobile business, told CNBC in an interview last month. Choi did not give a timeline when Bixby may get generative AI features, but said that Samsung is "working so hard" to deliver them. Samsung's focus on the technology comes at a time when investors are scrutinizing what Apple will deliver when it comes to generative AI. Apple announced it would hold its annual developers conference, WWDC, in June, when the company is largely expected to talk up some AI features across its products.
