Samsung Presents Comprehensive Hospitality Portfolio Focusing on Guest Experience at HITEC 2018Samsung Electronics America, Inc, is showcasing its latest hospitality innovations at HITEC 2018 by simulating a hotel experience that spotlights how Samsung (News - Alert) technology elevates guest engagement and experiences. The broad range of hospitality offerings featured at the booth include the latest HTVs, indoor and outdoor digital displays - LYNK™ REACH 4.0 with HMS 2.0 - and wearable solutions built for hotels. The SMART Signage displays will be powered by the Tizen 3.0 operating system, and Samsung's cross-architecture open source software platform. The Samsung HITEC Booth will be open for visitors at the George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston, Texas at booth #1929 from June 19-21, 2018. This year, Samsung will display how hoteliers can differentiate the guest experience using technology from check-in to check-out. Visitors will experience the "Samsung Hotel", a hotel environment with real life scenarios of Samsung products and solutions including digital display, hospitality TVs, mobile, wearables and Wi-Fi solutions. In addition, the Samsung team will provide an overview at the booth of exciting advancements to look forward to following HITEC such as Samsung's two new hospitality TV series, NJ670U and NJ690U. Designed to enhance the guests' viewing experience and the series will launch later this year. "Samsung's portfolio of hospitality solutions demonstrates our understanding of how technology can contribute to a differentiated, high quality guest experience," said Jonas Tanenbaum, Vice President of Samsung's Hospitality TV Division. "These solutions, from in-room hospitality TVs to lobby LED signage to wearables for hotel management, showcase Samsung's ability to create a connected, intuitive environment for hotel guests. The single platform powered by Tizen 3.0, allows for full connectivity of devices." The LYNK™ REACH platform's graphical user interface (GUI) provides various guest-facing benefits that allow hoteliers to transform in-room displays to a digital concierge. The interface is customizable so hotel managers can either control the development in-house or leverage certified partners to create content. This year, Samsung will demonstrate the versatility of this GUI by showcasing three different interfaces with unique layouts, features and services. Hotel operations platform ALICE partnered with Samsung to deliver a hotel management smartwatch solution to improve employee communications, increase responsiveness to guests and enhance customer service. The wearable solution gives hotel employees 'hands-free' connectivity, enabling them to handle objects and complete tasks while in communications and responding to requests. Hotel employees who benefit include maintenance workers on repair jobs, room service staff carrying trays and housekeeping service handling cleaning tools without instant access to phones. This also eliminates risks of dropping devices while on the job and silences disruptive radio communications. Luxury hotel brand Viceroy Hotel Group will be the first company to implement the solution. Additional Samsung products and solutions displayed at the booth include:
