At the earlier Galaxy Unpacked 2025 event, Google DeepMind CEO Demis Hassabis said that the general artificial intelligence digital assistant technology demonstrated at Google I/O 2024 last yearProject Astra, will be integrated into Samsung's newGalaxy S25 series flagship phone, and Google's Gemini App.
This feature is expected to be gradually available on more mobile phones in the coming months, allowing users to capture images directly with their phone’s camera and have artificial intelligence interpret the details of the captured content.
"Project Astra" was conceived and created by the Google DeepMind team, and aims to be a general-purpose artificial intelligence digital assistant, allowing users to improve work efficiency, simplify work processes, and solve difficult problems in daily life through this service.
This technology combines voice interaction, image recognition, environmental perception and other methods to enable artificial intelligence to instantly describe and interpret the content captured by the mobile phone camera, and can even be seamlessly transferred to glasses with camera lens functions for continued use.
In addition to being available on the Galaxy S25 series flagship phones, Google is also preparing to integrate this technology into the Pixel 9 series phones, and will make it available on more mobile devices through the Gemini App in the future.
