Zoom Anyplace is expected to be one of the key features of Samsung’s next-generation flagship smartphone, the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, scheduled for launch in the first half of 2024. While Samsung is yet to officially confirm this, the promotional video for the technology makes it clear that the technology is powered by Qualcomm’s new AI Engine, which made its debut with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip — the very chip that is likely to power the Galaxy S24 Ultra.
As outlined earlier, Samsung claims that Zoom Anyplace uses AI to identify and track moving objects in the frame. Once a subject has been identified, Zoom Anyplace will automatically keep the subject in focus and centered in the frame, even if the subject is moving erratically. This technology could prove helpful for people who use their smartphones to shoot sporting events, concerts, and events where the subjects tend to move around a lot, making it difficult to keep track of them.
In addition to its automatic tracking capabilities, Zoom Anyplace also offers a number of other features, including the ability to zoom in and out on a subject without losing focus or resolution while keeping a subject centered in the frame. The promotional video showcasing Zoom Anyplace in action makes the technology seem like an interesting new addition to Samsung’s video capture capabilities, which have traditionally lagged behind Apple’s.
