Many of us go through our daily routines without thinking much about them. For young individuals with Down syndrome, executive functioning differences can make some everyday tasks more challenging to navigate. These individuals often require constant reminders and support from caregivers to complete their everyday routines, placing additional pressure on family members and caregivers to guide them through the demands of daily life.

For Team BuddyBot from Edgefield Secondary School, the newly-crowned Grand Prize winner of the Samsung Solve for Tomorrow 2025 competition, technology is the key to unlocking greater autonomy for these individuals. Their winning solution, BuddyBot, is a game-changing smart assistant designed to help young people with Down syndrome build independence in their daily routines, while alleviating the burden on caregivers to provide continuous guidance and support.

“Our goal is to help young individuals with Down syndrome develop greater independence when managing their daily routines, while reducing the demands on their caregivers. BuddyBot offers users guided, step-by-step instructions, promoting autonomy and confidence in everyday activities. Designed with accessibility, empathy and inclusion in mind, we hope that it will make lives easier for families with children that have special needs,” said Shannon Ong from Team BuddyBot.

A Smart Assistant for Everyday Routines

BuddyBot consists of the BuddyBot Companion – a portable, compact device for users and the BuddyBot Caregiver App. Caregivers can customise the daily routines and break down each task — such as brushing teeth, washing hands and getting dressed — into simple steps using the app. The BuddyBot companion device then delivers instructions through visual prompts and voice guidance to users, guiding them through each task to complete their routines with confidence.

Beyond breaking down the steps into easily digestible instructions, BuddyBot harnesses Artificial Intelligence (AI) to analyse users’ past actions to uncover patterns — such as skipped steps or longer time spent on tasks — and identifies areas where additional support is needed. It also compares the data from the user’s everyday behaviours against the designated routine to provide further suggestions for improvement. This enables BuddyBot to optimise routines and provide timely reminders to help users foster greater independence over time.

Inspiring Youths to Champion Social Change Through Innovation and Technology

Highlights of the Samsung Solve for Tomorrow 2025 Grand Finale

Samsung Solve for Tomorrow Singapore is an annual competition designed to ignite the passion for championing social change among youths. Now into its ninth year, the competition received 90 entries from over 260 secondary school students addressing four key themes: Environmental Sustainability, Sport, Health and Technology, Inclusivity and Social Harmony, and Digital Readiness and Security, presenting innovative solutions that can help build a better and more secure future for Singapore.

As the Grand Prize winner of this year’s competition, Team BuddyBot received $7,000 in cash, $10,000 worth of Samsung products, and a sponsored trip to Samsung’s headquarters and innovation facilities in South Korea. During the trip, Team BuddyBot visited the Samsung Innovation Museum and saw how Samsung’s innovations – from its earliest cathode ray tube (CRT) TVs to the advanced mobile devices of today – solved real-world problems and achieved global impact. They also visited the eX Home, a fully-furnished smart home with over 300 interconnected devices that seamlessly integrate technology into consumers’ everyday lives using Samsung SmartThings. The experience taught them that true innovation is not just about creating cool gadgets, but about connecting vision and fundamental discoveries with societal needs to create tangible long-term impact.

Every day, people navigate unique circumstances that shape how they live and interact with their surroundings. At Samsung, we hold fast to our commitment to enhance daily experiences for everyone; developing solutions and technologies that empower people to experience a more personal and impactful world.

Reflecting on this purpose as we mark this year’s International Day of Persons with Disabilities, we turn the spotlight to inspiring solutions developed by youth in Southeast Asia and Oceania for Samsung Solve for Tomorrow (SFT) 2025 — our global flagship corporate social responsibility programme now in its 15^th year. The programme encourages students to address local and global issues using STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics), and we have seen innovative solutions developed by the next generation of changemakers committed to break barriers and drive equity within their communities.

Innovating for Independence in Sports  

Many of us stay healthy, build friendships, and enjoy the thrill of competition and achievement through sports and physical activities. Yet, individuals living with disabilities often face barriers when taking part in such activities.

Inspired by real challenges faced by the community and even close friends around them, some of our SFT teams explored how the intersection of sports and technological innovation can create meaningful opportunities for all to participate and compete. Projects from the Indonesia and Singapore teams were recognised for their innovative and impactful ideas, developed in line with SFT 2025’s new global theme — Social Change Through Sport & Technology — created in collaboration with the International Olympic Community.

 

Designed to help visually impaired runners navigate safely, RunSight combines smart glasses with a camera, earbuds, a computing unit, and a mobile app

 

 

Team LABMINO, winner for the University category in SFT Indonesia, were inspired by a close friend and avid runner who lives with impaired vision due to cataracts. This led them to create RunSight—a wearable device that recognises track lines, detects obstacles and estimates depth in real time. RunSight is designed to work without internet connectivity and with the goal of enabling these individuals to run freely and independently, which may reduce their need for guide runners.

 

Team Pei Pei Hwa Hwa’s Ando Hypohidrosis Vest acts like a “mechanical sweat gland”, helping individuals with hypohidrosis stay cool during outdoor activities

 

In Singapore, Team Pei Pei Hwa Hwa set out to improve outdoor experiences for individuals living with hypohidrosis—a condition that limits the body’s ability to produce enough sweat and regulate heat. In tropical climates, overheating can pose a serious risk, often leaving individuals reliant on ice packs, portable fans, or even surgery to stay cool during outdoor activities. To address this, the team developed the Ando Hypohidrosis Vest, an energy-efficient solution designed to keep the wearer’s back cool by circulating chilled coolant, enabling them to participate in everyday outdoor activities and exercise.

 

 

Bridging Voices, Building Shared Understanding

 

Deaf and hard of hearing individuals often face difficulties with understanding others and being understood. This prompted our Australian SFT winner to create a solution to support clearer communication.

 

Access Lens helps both Deaf and hard of hearing users feel more confident, connected and included in everyday conversations

 

Within Australia’s Deaf and hard of hearing community, accessible and affordable Auslan (Australian sign language) translation tools remain limited. Major Prize SFT winner, Faiz Noorani, created Access Lens, a real-time augmented reality solution that uses smart glasses or a smartphone camera to convert spoken English into Auslan. Designed to run locally, Access Lens enables clearer communications with English speakers while avoiding the common barriers of other translation platforms, such as delays, cloud fees and advertisements. With his AUD 10,000  prize money, Faiz plans to enhance Access Lens’ features, expand its reach and build strategic partnerships to support long-term impact.

 

 

Equitable Medical Access and Early Intervention

 

AI SpineCheck provides a quick and easy way to screen children for scoliosis risk

 

In Thailand, Team AI SpineCheck set out to improve early detection of scoliosis after seeing many high school students needing spinal braces or surgery due to late diagnosis, leading to higher treatment costs for more advanced cases. Current screening methods often depend on medical personnel and can be inaccessible or inconsistent for local communities. AI SpineCheck simplifies this process with an AI-powered platform that analyses photos to assess spinal alignment. This offers a more accessible and convenient way to screen for scoliosis, supporting early intervention and better health outcomes.

 

 

Creating Better Accessibility and User-Centred Design for All

 

A key part of inclusion is not only designing innovations specifically for persons with disabilities, but ensuring everyday products and services meet the needs of all users, regardless of ability. Guided by this philosophy, Samsung devices, appliances and solutions are designed to be inclusive, intuitive and convenient for all.

 

Visibility enhancement settings on the Bespoke AI Laundry Combo

 

Our 2025 Bespoke AI home appliances incorporate more streamlined control experiences that empower all users—including those with limited mobility—towards comfortable and accessible use. With simple voice commands, such as “Open the fridge door”, to cue features like Auto Open Door for refrigerators^[1], or “I’m going to sleep”, to turn off lights and appliances via SmartThings routine once its set up^[2]—users can manage their home hands-free. The Bespoke AI Laundry Combo also features a large, easy-to-read digital display that replaces traditional dials and small text for smoother wash-cycle selection.

 

Guided by an accessibility-first approach, we constantly refine our designs across product development cycles, working closely with users to test and enhance usability. For instance, Samsung added audio guidance, colour inversion or grayscale modes in their screen-equipped appliances for users with visual impairments. To make Samsung appliances easier to navigate, it keeps discovering new ways to enhance accessibility as shown in the award-winning^[3] “Samsung Inclusive Essentials” concept, which aims to standardise sensory cues across products.

 

Building a More Inclusive Future Together

 

By seamlessly weaving intelligent, inclusive technology into everyday life, Samsung ensures that everyone—regardless of ability or environment—can enjoy connected and personalised experiences. From empowering communities through programmes like SFT to embedding accessibility into our products and services, we remain committed to enabling individuals to live more independently and open up more possibilities for people in their daily life.

Inspired to help young individuals with Down Syndrome overcome challenges with executive functioning, Team BuddyBot set out to develop a smart assistant to help such individuals manage their everyday routines more independently. Using a portable, compact device designed for users complemented by a mobile app for caregivers, BuddyBot enables caregivers to break down everyday tasks such as brushing teeth, washing hands and getting dressed into simpler steps via the app, and deliver easy-to-understand instructions through a combination of visual prompts and voice instructions using the compact device.

Beyond serving as a smart assistant that helps individuals with their routines, BuddyBot also taps artificial intelligence (AI) to analyse users’ past actions, to uncover notable patterns in the users’ behaviours (e.g., skipped steps; longer time spent on tasks) and the areas where the users are struggling. By unearthing insights on where users require more support and guidance, the solution can suggest changes to their daily routines and provide timely reminders to help them complete their daily tasks more independently.

“Many young individuals with Down Syndrome face challenges with executive functioning and need constant reminders and support from their caregivers to complete their daily tasks. Our solution, BuddyBot, can help these individuals build independence for their daily routines, and alleviate the burden on their caregivers. By giving families and caregivers a smart assistant that is built with accessibility, empathy and inclusion in mind, we hope to create meaningful impact and help improve the quality of life for families with special needs children,” said Shannon Ong.

“Today, as we face a myriad of complex global and local challenges, it is more important than ever for our youths to step out to champion social change in their respective communities. Samsung Solve for Tomorrow encourages students to think critically about societal issues and harness technology to create meaningful solutions that can make a real difference. I am heartened to see the depth of thinking that each team puts in to create original solutions that address key issues that they personally care about. By inspiring our next generation of leaders to take action and drive change in our society, I believe that they will make a tangible difference and help create a better tomorrow for Singapore,” said Jeffrey Hahn, President of Samsung Electronics Singapore.

Driving Positive Change Through Technology and Innovation

Team Through Their Eyes from Cedar Girls’ Secondary School secured second place with their project – Through Their Eyes – an empathy simulation that promotes inclusive and respectful online behaviour. Through their solution, the team aims to address the rise of cyberbullying and cancel culture by placing students in everyday scenarios to help them understand how hurtful comments can gradually erode self-esteem and lead to isolation. The simulation incorporates visual and audio effects, an emotional health tracker, and recovery options that teach students coping strategies such as reporting abuse or seeking help. Aimed for implementation during Character and Citizenship Education (CCE) lessons with Samsung Gear virtual reality (VR), laptops and smartphones, the simulation encourages empathy and responsible digital conduct by enabling youths to experience first-hand the long-lasting impact of cyberbullying.

Team Smart Cane won the People’s Choice Award after receiving the most online votes for their project, Smart Cane – an innovative attachment designed to transform any traditional cane into a multifunctional mobility aid that enhances safety, independence, and confidence for the visually impaired. Equipped with sensors such as an ultrasonic distance detector, accelerometer, and Bluetooth module, the device detects nearby obstacles, monitors sudden movements, and transmits alerts to a connected smartphone app. Caregivers can track the user’s location and receive instant notifications during emergencies. By offering an affordable and user-friendly solution, the team aims to promote inclusivity and empower visually impaired individuals to navigate their surroundings with greater assurance and freedom.

“Technology has the power to break down barriers and unlock limitless potential for our youth, and the projects presented are testament to how today’s youth are leveraging such skills to shape the future. With opportunities to expand their skillsets and exposure to tech industry leaders, we hope that our youths can gain the confidence to pitch innovative solutions to drive social change and real-world impact,” said Karen Lee, Director of Partnership Lab, National Youth Council, and Solve for Tomorrow 2025 judge.

Picture this: a student in rural Indonesia collaborates on a science presentation with peers in Singapore and Thailand, using their AI-powered tablets to translate their respective languages for one another in real-time while an intelligent display in their classrooms brings their shared workspace to life. Far from being science fiction, these scenarios are already possible today, thanks to technology.

Working with educators across Southeast Asia and Oceania, I have had the privilege to witness a generation of digital-native students who don’t just use technology; but intuitively reach for it as something deeply embedded into their every day. Compared to preceding generations, these students approach problems differently, learn differently, and simply put, are also expecting their educational experiences to match the increasingly connected world that they will one day inherit from us.

This is not a question of whether technology belongs in education, but instead, whether we can be bold enough to reimagine how education can further grow thanks to technology.

Classrooms Powered by AI

Samsung AI Assistant on the new AI-powered Interactive Display is built with intelligent, intuitive tools to organise lessons and collaborative learning

At Bett 2025 earlier this year, we unveiled something I’m genuinely excited about – our new AI-powered Interactive Display that integrates Samsung AI Assistant, equipping educators with more intelligent and intuitive tools to both organise and transform lessons.

Features like AI Summary help teachers create concise lesson recaps automatically, making planning much easier and simplifying post-class reviews for students. Meanwhile, Live Transcript converts conversations into text in real time for students to revisit and reinforce what they’ve learned in class. Armed with these tools, educators can transform lessons into dynamic and interactive experiences that maximise learning outcomes.

Students at Al Muslim Bekasi utilising the Samsung Notes app, with in-built Galaxy AI features

Furthermore, we recently rolled out the Samsung Digital Lighthouse School programme in Indonesia, starting with two schools: Al Muslim Bekasi and Salman Al Farisi Bandung. The programme aims to accelerate the digital transformation journeys of schools and enhance the learning experiences of over 2,500 students with AI-enabled Galaxy devices such as the Galaxy Tab S and A Series, with holistic protection by Samsung Knox.

At the end of the day, we want to have technology that inspires both educators and students to explore, discover and collaborate. Technology should not overshadow the human connection but instead, enhance it.

Equity and Ecosystems

A concern that many educators have with technology is equity and access. When done right, technology can bridge, instead of widen, the gaps.

When a student in Bandung accesses the same AI-powered learning tools as someone in Seoul; when language barriers are removed through real-time translation; and when personalised learning can be adapted to the different paces and styles of both teachers and students, that is democratisation in action. A decade ago, high-speed internet used to be accessible only to those who could afford it.; today, these technologies are well within reach of most students across our region. Technology for technology’s sake doesn’t solve anything; instead, it is about creating ecosystems that benefit everyone.

However, educators are also just as concerned about having the right solutions on hand to help them fully maximise that potential, not just for students, but also for teaching staff. We work with local Edutech partners for classroom device management, as well as change management support, to better enhance learning outcomes for students. These collaborations are built around the understanding that technologies, like tablets for classrooms, are only as transformative as the support system around them. After all, tools are only as good as the hands that wield them.

Working within the System, Not Against It

Beyond devices, software and services, it is extremely important to have a clear understanding of national education strategies, curriculum requirements, as well as the long-term vision for digital learning. We have been engaging and collaborating with education ministries across the region to ensure that initiatives are designed to support and integrate with these existing frameworks.  

Our Samsung Learning Hub, launched in January, exemplifies this approach. This digital resource hub for educators offers online training, teaching materials, certifications, and a community to further support teaching and learning outcomes. For digital learning initiatives to succeed, they must aim to complement and not replace traditional teaching methods.

The Imperative for Collaboration

The future of education cannot be a solo act, but must be built through collaboration among educators, students, parents, policymakers, and technology companies like Samsung. Here is my challenge to everyone reading this: whether you are an educator frustrated by the limitations of current teaching methods, a policymaker grappling with budget constraints, or even a fellow technology professional looking to make a real difference:

Let’s stop talking about the future of education and start building it. Let’s be bold enough to experiment, humbly explore new innovations to figure out what works, and persist in our efforts to continue iterating until we get it right, together.

Our students today will inherit a world shaped by AI, climate change, and other challenges that we have yet to discover. They deserve an education that prepares them not just to adapt to that world, but to lead it. For that to happen, we must also ensure that they are both enabled and empowered with the right tools and support to drive better and more effective learning outcomes in this digital-first world. Are we ready to lead it together?

Experience the Future of Education with Samsung at Bett Asia

At Samsung, we believe in building the future of education together. We welcomed attendees to experience our vision in action at Bett Asia in Kuala Lumpur that happened from 1-2 October 2025, and discover how technology can enhance, not replace, the human connection in the classroom. Attendees had the opportunity to speak with our experts, see live demonstrations, and learn how Samsung is helping create dynamic, interactive, and equitable learning environments for the next generation.

Let’s start building tomorrow’s classroom, today.

At Samsung, we strive for continuous growth and improvement, while also recognising the importance of empowering the next generation to drive its own innovation and progress. Today, technologies like generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) are fast becoming the transformative technological developments of this era, and we strongly believe in such technologies’ potential in enhancing our capabilities.

I found a recent report from the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) to be quite interesting; the findings revealed global human development progress – a measure of improvements in health, education and income levels according to the UNDP’s Human Development Index (HDI) – has slowed to a 35-year low. While this take is concerning, what follows is unprecedented optimism about AI’s potential – with 60% of respondents worldwide hopeful that AI will create new job opportunities^[1].

We now stand at the edge of a digital divide. As a global technology leader, we are taking on the responsibility to equip all with technology – such as AI – as well as with skills that empower them to co-create meaningful change at scale.

Inspiring Collective Innovation through Human-Centred AI

In the vibrant Southeast Asia & Oceania (SEAO) region, we are already seeing the next generation embracing AI’s potential, not just to shape careers, but also to drive meaningful social change^[2]. These insights align with the UNDP findings that show two-thirds of respondents anticipating the usage of AI in education, health or work within the next year^[1].

At Samsung, initiatives like Solve for Tomorrow (SFT), our global flagship corporate social responsibility (CSR) programme, embodies the United Nations’ (UN) call for building an economy where people leverage AI rather than compete against it^[1]. Across SEAO, the 2025 edition of SFT has kicked off in Vietnam, Indonesia, Australia, Thailand, Singapore, Philippines, Malaysia and New Zealand.

The Solve For Tomorrow 2024 Philippines Grand Prize winner hails from Lipa City Science Integrated National High School, with their entry, “Hi-LoWall: A Solar-Powered Rice Husk Fog Wall Utilising Evaporative Cooling”.

Through the competition, participants gain the skills and confidence to tackle complex problems, transforming their ideas into actionable solutions that solve real problems. One such example is Samsung Philippines’ Solve For Tomorrow champion in 2024, where students from Lipa City Science Integrated National High School presented an innovative and water-efficient solution using rice husk biochar fog walls to combat rising heat indices caused by El Niño, which disrupts public school operations.

Our approach to CSR also reflects the UN’s focus on embedding human agency across the full AI lifecycle, from design to deployment^[1]. Through programmes like SFT, we ensure that young innovators remain at the centre of technological solutions, and not just as passive recipients.

Investing in the Leaders of Tomorrow

Today, we are also seeing the democratisation of AI underway. Our own youth survey on AI reveals that 9 in 10 youths in SEAO are using AI daily, with the UNDP also reporting similar findings, indicating that 1 in 5 survey respondents are already utilising AI^[1].

Notably, the UNDP highlights that 70% of people in low- and medium-HDI countries expect AI to increase their productivity^[1]. At the same time, our youth survey on AI also highlights that 78% of youths in SEAO are using AI for learning^[2]. These insights reinforce the potential of AI as a bridge to new knowledge and skills, thereby making Samsung’s contributions towards skills development not just beneficial, but essential for regional economic growth and competitiveness.

Creating a future-ready workforce means bridging the digital divide, and ensuring those without easy access to education, technology and upskilling opportunities, have the support they need to both participate in and drive change.

Samsung Innovation Campus is a global education programme that helps youth build advanced IT skills and practical capabilities for better opportunities.

Across the region, we empower young people through initiatives like Samsung Innovation Campus (SIC)^[3], providing information and communications technology education in areas such as Coding & Programming, Internet of Things and AI. By bridging the skills gap and laying a foundation for future employment, we’re contributing to the development of skilled professionals and supporting national goals, such as Indonesia’s digital economy growth, which will need an additional 9 million digital talent by 2030.

In Thailand, our decade-long partnership with the Office of the Vocational Education Commission through the Dual Vocational Education (DVE) programme empowers vocational students with real-world experience and future-ready capabilities. By combining classroom learning with on-the-job training, the programme not only strengthens technical expertise, but also cultivates vital skills such as critical thinking, problem-solving, and teamwork. This well-rounded approach ensures that students are fully equipped to succeed and contribute meaningfully to Thailand’s development.

Technology as a Bridge

This commitment to inclusivity extends beyond product design and into how we think about the future of work. As industries evolve and the green economy expands, we must ensure that no one is left behind.

By working closely with government agencies, educators, partners, customers, and the youth who will inherit this future, we are building not just products but responding to the urgent need for new approaches to development, by creating pathways where innovation uplifts communities, and ensuring that everyone has a role in shaping an AI-enhanced future.

Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. announced the findings of its 2024 survey on Artificial Intelligence (AI), revealing that Southeast Asian (SEA) youths are not just witnessing the AI revolution, but are also actively shaping it. The survey showed that close to 9 in 10 youths are already using AI in their day-to-day routines, and the primary platform that they use to access AI services is through their mobile devices. This highlights the role and potential of mobile devices in empowering SEA youths today and tomorrow.

The survey, conducted among 884 youths^[1] aged 13 to 24 in Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore and Thailand, highlights the profound impact of AI on their lives, ambitions, and aspirations for social change.

CU Kim, President and CEO of Southeast Asia and Oceania for Samsung Electronics, said, “We have always been passionate about enabling the next generation in our region to reach their fullest potential through our innovative technology and our global Corporate Citizenship programmes. This is why we have sought to understand the hopes and aspirations of youths in our region. Our survey findings show that Southeast Asian youths are high adopters of AI and believe in its potential to shape their careers or for driving social good. This reinforces the need to continue to empower the next generation with meaningful AI innovations, and Samsung is committed to helping youths unlock new possibilities, amplify their creativity, and drive positive change in their communities.”

High Adoption of AI among SEA Youth Today

Based on survey findings, AI is no longer a future concept for the SEA youths – it is a present reality empowering them to thrive in all aspects of their lives. A staggering 9 out of 10 youths already incorporate AI tools and services into their daily routines, using such tools for learning, creativity, staying informed, and driving positive changes in their communities. Specifically, the top three daily uses of AI are for learning (78%), for creativity (56%), and to stay informed (38%).

Mobile devices^[2] are central in driving AI usage among this demographic, as it is the preferred way SEA youths use to access AI tools and services. This trend is expected to continue, as more youths expect mobile devices to be their main mode of access to AI in the future. Samsung is at the forefront of this mobile-first era, bringing AI tools and services to all with Galaxy AI, which enhances communication, fosters creativity, and boosts productivity. The new Samsung Galaxy S25 Series is an example of how Samsung continuously sets new standards of what AI smartphones can do, by understanding users’ needs and preferences to provide personalised AI experiences with privacy assured at every turn.

SEA Youth See AI as Catalyst for Shaping Their Future Careers

Youths surveyed are optimistic about the future of work in the age of AI, proactively preparing for new opportunities by developing essential AI skills. While 65% believe AI will create new job opportunities, 81% are also aware that some jobs will inevitably disappear. This awareness has fueled a strong desire for AI skills development, with 70% of youths surveyed expressing a keen interest in upskilling and learning more about AI. More than half of the respondents also feel that AI may change their job fields substantially in the future, reflecting the keen awareness by SEA youths on how AI will shape their career paths.

Through the expansion of intelligent AI features on even more Galaxy devices such as the new Galaxy S25 Series as well as the Galaxy A56 5G, A36 5G and A26 5G, Samsung is committed to empowering even more users by making AI more accessible across various models. Interactive features such as Google’s Circle to Search^[3] and Math Solver in Samsung Notes help create immersive learning environments that bring meaningful educational experiences to life.

Collaborative Action for Responsible AI Among Youth

When asked about what influences their use and perspectives of AI, social media (77%) was ranked as the top encouraging force by SEA youths, followed by technology companies and services (73%), then friends and siblings (57%). As such, building a responsible AI future for youth today requires collaborative action among various groups, as well as creating a safe environment for youths to learn and grow.

Samsung’s approach to AI prioritises security and privacy, as exemplified by features like Personal Data Engine^[4] on the new Galaxy S25 Series. This ensures context-aware, personalised AI experiences with robust protection for user data across the Samsung connected device ecosystem. Across Galaxy devices, innovations such as Knox Vault keep personalised data private and secure while laying the groundwork for youths to boost their productivity and creativity using mobile AI, with complete peace of mind.

Continued investment in AI education and infrastructure is crucial in ensuring equitable access to the benefits of the AI revolution. Samsung is dedicated to this through its global Corporate Citizenship prgorammes such as the Samsung Solve for Tomorrow global contest, which empowers youths to leverage technology for social good.

Winners of Singapore’s Solve for Tomorrow 2024 competition harnessed AI technology through SilentGuide—a pair of smart glasses that uses AI-driven speech recognition to transcribe spoken words into real-time subtitles, enabling people with hearing impairments to participate more meaningfully in conversations. Inspired by a classmate with a hearing impairment who struggles to engage in noisy environments, the team developed a solution that functions without an internet connection, and is comfortable to wear, user-friendly and affordable.

By fostering AI literacy and supplying the right innovative tools through these initiatives, more youths will be equipped to thrive in the future world of AI and new technologies.

Supporting Marine Ecosystems Through Global Collaboration

Introduced at Galaxy Unpacked in January 2025, Coral in Focus is an initiative launched last year that supports local communities, including communities in Fiji, Indonesia and the United States, to restore coastal ecosystems.

Samsung has partnered with Seatrees, a nonprofit organisation dedicated to restoring marine ecosystems, to explore new, innovative solutions for coral reef restoration. The company has introduced Ocean Mode^[1] on the Galaxy S24 Ultra, an exclusive camera feature that enables vivid image capture underwater. These images provide accurate visual data for marine researchers who create 3D photogrammetry models to continuously monitor and analyse coral reefs. Local partner organisations then use these findings to guide their on-site coral restoration efforts.

Ocean Mode: How Galaxy Camera Innovation Is Helping Restore Coral Reefs

Partners and local field teams use Ocean Mode to reduce the excessive blue tones common in underwater photography, allowing for a more accurate representation of coral colours. The feature also helps minimise motion blur through optimised shutter speed and multi-frame image processing. Additionally, the interval shooting function enables thousands of high-resolution coral images to be captured in a single session — improving both efficiency and image clarity.

With these coral restoration initiatives, photos taken with Ocean Mode have been used to produce 17 3D models of coral reefs to analyse the health and growth of reefs. In total, 11,046 coral fragments were planted to restore 10,705 square metres of coral reef habitat — roughly the size of 25 basketball courts.

Since unveiling its “Galaxy for the Planet” environmental vision in 2021, Samsung has continued its efforts toward a more sustainable future — not only by incorporating ocean-bound plastics from discarded fishing nets into its products but also by expanding into marine ecosystem restoration. These actions reflect the company’s ongoing commitment to reducing its environmental impact across the entire product life cycle and beyond.

^[1] Ocean Mode was exclusively developed for this project and is only available to participating partners.

Elevating Youth Voices for Global Action

In the coming months, these Young Leaders will attend various major global events, where they will engage with policymakers, innovators and fellow changemakers. Through these platforms, they will contribute to international conversations on sustainable development and drive tangible progress toward the Global Goals, ensuring that youth voices play a crucial role in shaping a more sustainable future.

This year, Generation17 alum Tamara Gondo took the stage at Samsung’s Galaxy Tech Forum, highlighting the company’s commitment to sustainability and the power of collaboration with like-minded partners to tackle worldwide challenges. She also shared how the initiative has helped scale her organisation’s impact since she joined in 2022.

“Young people are the future of global development, and with fewer than five years left to achieve the Global Goals, the time to act is now,” said Achim Steiner, Administrator of UNDP. “Through our long-standing partnership with Samsung, we are empowering youth to advance solutions that address climate and human rights challenges and to inspire a new generation to join the fight for a more sustainable and just future.”

Generation17 reflects the shared commitment of Samsung and UNDP to harness technology for positive impact. The collaboration began in 2019 with the launch of the Samsung Global Goals App—a mobile platform that educates users about the Global Goals while enabling them to contribute through everyday use of their Galaxy devices. As detailed in Samsung’s Global Goals Report, as of September 2024, the app has been installed on nearly 300 million Samsung Galaxy devices worldwide—including smartphones, tablets and smartwatches—and has helped generate more than USD 20 million to support UNDP’s global environmental and social initiatives.

Gabriel Anthony, a 12-year-old from Whitby Collegiate in New Zealand was awarded first prize in the Year 7 to 10 category at the Solve for Tomorrow New Zealand 2024 competition with his invention, Pill-Bot, an artificial intelligence (AI) medication identifier designed for the visually impaired, inspired by his grandmother’s experience of taking the wrong medication. His innovative approach involves training an AI bot to recognise different types of pills and verbally announcing their names to enable patients, especially those with visual impairment, to identify their medication before consumption.

SilentGuide processes spoken words directed at an individual and transcribes them into subtitles

In Singapore, Team redbluegold made up of Anglo-Chinese School (Independent) students Aiden Lim and Karan Gopu Pillai claimed victory in Singapore’s Solve for Tomorrow 2024 competition with SilentGuide—a pair of smart glasses that transcribes spoken words into subtitles, helping people with hearing impairment participate more meaningfully in conversations. Inspired by a classmate with a hearing impairment who had struggled to maintain a two-way conversation in a noisy classroom, the team set out to create a solution that functions without an internet connection, and is comfortable to wear, user-friendly and affordable.

Cough Aid can be used anywhere and at any time, easing access to preliminary screening and boosting the chances of individuals receiving timely treatment

Meanwhile in Thailand, Team Kao Kee’s Cough Aid innovation emerged as one of the finalists in the Solve for Tomorrow 2024 competition in Thailand. This web application relies on AI technology to analyse cough sounds and preliminary diagnose respiratory diseases, potentially enabling pre-emptive treatment and better health outcomes. In a region where respiratory conditions remain prevalent, such early-warning systems could prove transformative.

Recognising these talented young minds as a glimpse into the future of industries such as healthcare, participants in the Solve for Tomorrow programme receive mentorship from industry experts, alongside access to innovative technology and resources to help transform their concepts into reality.

Transforming healthcare through technology

Everyday wellness at a glance with Samsung Health^[1]

At Samsung, we believe that technology has the power to enhance everyday life. Galaxy users can benefit from the Energy Score^[2] in the Samsung Heath app^[3], which provides holistic insights through multiple health indicators including sleep, heart health, and physical activity. When paired with the Galaxy Ring, users can enjoy comprehensive health tracking throughout the day and night, enhancing the accuracy and ease of sleep tracking.

The Galaxy Watch series offers more advanced capabilities suited for users interested in a broader spectrum of health insights—from Electrocardiogram (ECG)^[4] to Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA)^[5]. Connect these to a Galaxy smartphone, such as the latest Galaxy S25 Series, allows users to receive actionable insights to improve their well-being.

Building a healthier future together

The intersection of youthful innovation and established technology can offer unexpected breakthroughs that address the healthcare challenges of today; solutions that improve accessibility, enhance prevention, and enable early intervention are becoming increasingly vital.

Samsung remains committed to advancing healthcare innovation through a dual approach that includes empowering young problem-solvers through programs like Solve for Tomorrow, while continuing to develop innovations that support users’ wellness goals.

This World Health Day, we celebrate not just the innovations of today, but the possibilities of these innovations—and the brilliant minds behind them—to create a healthier tomorrow for all.
