Along with smartwatch, Gemini will also appear on Android Auto, smart TVs and mixed reality (XR) devices, gradually replacing the role of Google Assistant.
According to Google, bringing Gemini to Wear OS will help fill the void in situations where users do not have a phone by their side. This new generation AI assistant can perform many tasks such as making reminders, retrieving information from Gmail, Google Maps, or getting data from other applications in just one command. Gemini also understands context, has the ability to remember and dialogue naturally, similar to what happens on phones and computers.
The outstanding feature of Gemini is the ability to process enhanced natural language, allowing users to interact by word of mouth instead of having to press a button or enter a specific command. On smartwatches, this will open up a more flexible hands-on experience and suitable for many practical situations.
Not only stopping at wearables, Gemini will be rolled out on Android Auto and the Google Built-in integrated car system in the coming weeks. In the car environment, Gemini helps users stay focused on the steering wheel by handling interactions without touching the screen.
The AI assistant can help plan routes, summarize news, summarize articles or books, and especially process messages. Gemini will connect with texting apps on the phone, automatically summarize, translate and respond to voice messages or create automatic responses.
After being available on Android Auto, Gemini will continue to expand to smart TVs. On Google TV, users can request recommendations for action movies suitable for young children or ask questions about other topics. Gemini will use a rich database to provide information not only about the content being watched but also many other areas of knowledge.
In the near future, Gemini will be available on the Android XR platform, supporting devices such as Samsung's smart glasses or premium mixed reality headphones. With a multi-screen floating layout, AI can display maps, information from the Internet, and illustrative videos for requirements such as planning heritage travel. In addition, the Gemini will also be integrated into wireless headphones of brands such as Samsung and Sony.
Gemini's strong expansion shows Google's ambition to build a comprehensive, seamless AI ecosystem that is present on every device users use every day.
