Google Home to Receive Gemini Smart Upgrade

2024-08-07

In the prelude to the autumn hardware release, Google has revealed three new intelligent features for the Gemini platform of Google Home, which are expected to be gradually launched before the end of the year. Among them, the Nest camera will add automatic subtitle function, making visual information clear at a glance; users can easily set the daily operations of Google Home through natural language; in addition, an upgraded Nest smart speaker and a smarter Google Assistant display version will be launched, bringing a brand-new voice interaction experience.

It is worth noting that many intelligent upgrade features need to be unlocked through the Google Nest Aware subscription service, which provides affordable video recording function on a monthly basis. Initially, these new features will be released in the form of a test version, prioritizing Nest Aware subscription users and gradually expanding the scope.

This series of measures by Google marks the acceleration of its smart home platform's intelligent process. The product manager of Google Home emphasizes that they are laying a solid foundation for the future development of Google Home, meeting users' expectations for functional upgrades, display screen updates, and the return of common functions, and helping users smoothly transition to the Google Home application.

With the release of Google TV Streamer 4K and the new Nest smart thermostat, coupled with continuous investment in the intelligence of Google Assistant, Google's layout in the smart home field is steadily advancing.

It is worth mentioning that Google did not simply apply Gemini technology to Nest products, but conducted in-depth optimization to deeply integrate it with Google Home. For example, the Nest camera will use Gemini technology to intelligently recognize and understand the situation at home, only pushing key information and reducing irrelevant disturbances. At the same time, the newly added text search recording function makes it more convenient to search for specific video clips.

In terms of home automation, the Google Home application has added a "Help me create" function, allowing users to simply describe the scene and automatically generate automation routines, such as "locking the door and turning off the lights when going to bed", greatly simplifying the setup process.

Google Assistant is also constantly being optimized, with the addition of multiple special voice features for more natural and fluent communication. It can not only understand the user's intentions but also maintain the context of the conversation and learn about the home environment, providing customized intelligent services for the family.

Google is leading the development of digital voice assistants towards a more practical and intelligent direction. In the future, the digital assistant in our homes will become an indispensable and capable helper, making smart home life more convenient and comfortable. This trend is worth looking forward to together.
