Samsung AI Assistant complements this experience with practical AI tools, including Circle to Search, Live Transcript, AI Summary and AI Quiz, that help teachers quickly find instructional content, generate lesson recaps, create formative assessments and support multilingual learners.2 Together, these solutions empower educators to spend less time managing technology and more time focused on teaching.
Supporting Educators Through Practical AI
Unsurprisingly, artificial intelligence was one of the most talked-about topics throughout ISTE, with educators expressing strong interest in tools that enhance, not replace, teaching.
During a joint session, Jonathan del Rosario, Head of Product, Display Solutions Division, Samsung Electronics America, and Madeleine Mortimore, Global Education Innovation & Research Lead, Logitech, explored how thoughtfully designed technology can increase classroom engagement while reducing friction for educators.
“The educator remains driving force in the classroom,” said del Rosario. “We design our Interactive Displays to make lesson planning and classroom engagement easier, using AI to help teachers focus more on students while creating richer, more immersive learning experiences.”
The Samsung-Logitech conversation underscored a broader shift toward integrated classroom ecosystems, where hardware, software and pedagogy work together to enable differentiated instruction and sustained student engagement. The discussion also highlighted growing momentum around connected, scalable learning environments, as schools increasingly prioritize unified platforms that extend beyond individual classrooms to support campus-wide collaboration and consistency.
“It’s no longer enough to have a device with an app and call it a day,” said Mortimore. “The right combination of hardware and software enables students to hear and be heard, see and be seen, and interact effectively with both the technology and their peers.”
Educators Demo Classroom-Ready Innovation
Throughout the conference, educators experienced Samsung’s newest AI-powered capabilities firsthand, with many emphasizing their immediate classroom applications.
Tambra Clark, Technology Integration Facilitator at Birmingham City Schools and a Samsung Solve for Tomorrow Top 10 winner, highlighted Samsung AI Assistant’s Circle to Search feature as a significant time saver, allowing teachers to instantly surface credible instructional resources without disrupting the flow of a lesson. Clark also described the Live Transcript, AI Summary and AI Quiz capabilities as transformative classroom tools that simplify lesson reflection and formative assessment.
“The transcription component is the secret sauce,” said Clark. “It listens to your lesson, creates a summary and even generates a quiz from what you taught. It becomes an incredible reflective tool for teachers while helping identify where students may need additional support.”
Jelena Zivko, Senior Instructional Technology Specialist with Volusia County School District, emphasized how Samsung AMS addresses one of today’s biggest classroom challenges: supporting teachers who regularly move between learning spaces.
“The seamless login experience means teachers can walk into any classroom and immediately have access to their lessons, files and personalized teaching environment,” said Zivko. “It also opens opportunities for substitute teachers, multilingual instruction and extending learning beyond the classroom through summaries and transcripts.”

Learn more 6G ISAC: Expanding the Value of Mobile Networks Beyond Connectivity
Mobile networks have traditionally been designed to connect people, devices, and services. Each network generation has seen improved data rates, latency, reliability, coverage, and capacity. In the upcoming 6G era, networks are expected to go beyond delivering information, and to understand the physical environment in which communication takes place.
Integrated Sensing and Communication (ISAC) is a key technology of the 6G shift. ISAC means that radio signals used for communication can also carry information about the surrounding environment, and it can create a distributed sensing layer without requiring a separate nationwide sensing infrastructure, by reusing the existing communication infrastructure, radio resources, and signal processing capabilities.
While research in the 5G era largely focused on UAV detection, ISAC in 6G expands the scope beyond simple object detection to a broader framework for environmental awareness, including environment/background sensing, vehicle/fixed-UE sensing, and indoor CPE-based sensing. Take a deep dive into ISAC, the core 6G technology that extends network beyond simple connection by sensing its environment, on the Samsung Research blog.
Learn more When One Sensor Learns Another: Cross-Modal AI for Wearables
Wearable devices are expected to deliver increasingly accurate health monitoring while remaining compact, lightweight, and power efficient. However, combining multiple sensing modalities often introduces challenges involving hardware complexity, battery consumption, and robustness. For example, photoplethysmography (PPG), a key technology for heart rate monitoring, is highly sensitive to motion artifacts, signal degradation, and increased power usage during continuous tracking. accelerometer (ACC) sensors, in contrast, are more robust and energy efficient, but do not directly measure cardiovascular activity. Existing multimodal approaches rely on explicit sensor fusion by combining both sensors simultaneously, and assuming that all sensors remain available and reliable during inference.
Based on Samsung Research’s recent work presented at ICASSP 2026, we would like to introduce a lightweight, cross-modal virtual sensing framework for wearable devices. The framework learns latent relationships between synchronized sensor streams during training and operates using only a single sensor during inference, enabling virtual PPG representations to be reconstructed from accelerometer signals. Evaluated on data collected during high-intensity interval training (HIIT) sessions, the new approach significantly improves ACC-only heart rate estimation and achieves performance close to full multimodal fusion systems, even under severe motion conditions. Learn more about this cross-modal virtual sensing technology, which demonstrates the potential of hardware-efficient wearable AI without relying on explicit sensor fusion, on the Samsung Research blog.

▲ Visitors explore the Samsung Lounge at Art Basel in Basel 2026, where Samsung Art Store was presented as a physical exhibition. Each June, Basel, Switzerland becomes a meeting point for the global art world, with Art Basel’s flagship fair drawing leading galleries, artists, collectors and institutions to Messe Basel and cultural sites across the city.
From June 18 to 21, this year’s fair brought together 290 galleries from 43 countries and territories presenting works ranging from historical foundations to the most progressive contemporary and digital practices, reaffirming its place at the center of the international art calendar. As the Official Art TV provider of Art Basel, Samsung Electronics presented an experience that connected personal taste with digital curation, showing how Samsung Art Store can bring art discovered at the fair into everyday spaces through screens designed for the home.
A Living Gallery of Personal Aesthetic
Samsung Art Store is a digital art platform on Samsung Art TVs, where users can explore curated works from leading museums, galleries and artists. At Art Basel in Basel (ABB), the Samsung Art Store Lounge translated that experience into a physical exhibition, showing how digital curation can make art discovery more personal.
▲ Through a survey order form, artworks are matched to each visitor’s personal art preferences. The experience began with a short order form. Visitors answered survey questions about what first drew their eye, what they looked for in art and what kind of piece would add meaning in their home. Their responses were scanned through a tablet, then matched to one of four curated themes: Geometric, Surreal, Vibrant or Painterly.
▲ (From left) Custom badges showed each visitor’s art theme, turning their results into a keepsake from the experience. At the center of the lounge was the Art Wall, a gallery-style installation composed of Micro RGB, OLED,1 The Frame Pro and The Frame displays from Samsung’s 2026 Art TV lineup. Once each order form was scanned, the Art Wall displayed artworks from the theme matched to the participant’s results.
“The Frame is so stylish and I loved how clearly you could see the artwork from every angle,” said an attendee.
The experience continued into the Giveaway Zone, where visitors received a custom warranty card and badge tied to their theme. The card playfully certified their art style, while the badge carried the result beyond the Art Wall, sparking conversations around shared tastes, contrasting preferences and the kinds of art guests imagined living with at home.

▲ Artist Daniel Arsham, Samsung’s 2026 Art TV Ambassador, stands with The Frame Pro featuring his custom bezel. In collaboration with Samsung, Arsham created a custom bezel for The Frame Pro that brings his sculptural language to the television frame. Made with stone-like material, the bezel features a raised texture that recalls topographical maps and the erosion patterns seen throughout his work. The surrounding wallpaper was developed from ultra-high-resolution 3D scans of sculptures from Arsham’s studio, enlarging their crystalline and weathered surfaces into an immersive installation around the screen.
▲ Arsham’s custom bezel for The Frame Pro features a raised texture inspired by topographical maps and erosion patterns. Together, the bezel and wallpaper gave The Frame Pro the feeling of an object already marked by time.
To mark his role as Samsung’s 2026 Art TV Ambassador, Arsham joined visitors at the Samsung Art Store Lounge for a June 17 book signing, giving guests a closer look at his practice and his collaboration with Samsung Art TV.
▲ Arsham meets visitors during a book signing at the Samsung Art Store Lounge on June 17. “An artist’s job is to interpret everyday life through their own lens. When viewers see that perspective, it creates a shared experience and a deeper connection,” said Arsham.
A Conversation on Discovering Your Artistic Sensibility
Samsung’s Basel story continued, moving from the fair floor to Gare du Nord for a special event, “Art Night with Samsung Art TV.” During the event, invited guests gathered for a conversation about finding art in everyday spaces and how Samsung Art TV brings curatorial instinct into the home.
▲ Daniel Arsham, Karim Crippa and Daria Greene discuss individual preference, art and Samsung Art TV during Art Night with Samsung Art TV. The evening’s talk brought together voices from across art, curation and digital display. Moderated by content creator Daniel Fanslau, Arsham spoke alongside Karim Crippa, Director of Art Basel Paris and Daria Greene, Head of Content and Curation for Samsung Art Store how artistic sensibility is shaped by everyday experiences and how art can be curated, discovered and lived with.
▲ Guests exchange thoughts on personal taste and the artworks they would choose for their own spaces. The conversation returned to a simple idea: art can have a place in the home without losing its presence. Through Samsung Art TV and Samsung Art Store, artistic sensibility becomes something people can choose, display and return to every day.
