RIDGEFIELD PARK, N. .J., April 1, 2010 – Samsung Electronics America, Inc., a market leader and award-winning innovator in consumer electronics, today unveiled new intelligent refrigerators as part of its expanding kitchen line. The RF268ABBP features one of the industry’s most advanced automated inventory tracking systems, designed to help consumers save time and optimize their eating and grocery shopping. Additional products announced include feature-rich over-the-range microwave ovens and an energy-efficient dishwasher.
“This year we are introducing a number of innovative products to our expanding kitchen line that exemplify what Samsung appliances stand for: helping our consumers in their everyday lives, offer best-in-class value and address common issues,” said James Politeski, vice president of Home Appliance sales and marketing at Samsung Electronics America. “From our highly rated over-the-range microwave ovens, to our energy-efficient dishwashers, our products go beyond their given tasks and offer solutions to the consumer. Our new refrigerators save consumers time by offering instantaneous up-to-the-second reporting on their contents, purchase dates, and freshness. With their always-on networking shoppers no longer have to worry about forgetting their shopping lists at home, they can just check their refrigerator contents while they’re at the store, or be automatically reminded to go to the store before they leave their office.”
“Samsung appliances offer best-in-class power efficiency, and Symas OpenLDAP delivers best-in-class software efficiency and reliability. SAMSUNG needed a compact, trouble-free data engine to back their innovative content tracker and Symas’ professionally built OpenLDAP offering was a natural fit to their needs”, said Howard Chu, Chief Technology Officer at Symas Corporation. “Symas has extensive experience porting to diverse environments, and building on our previous experience working with ARM processors, we are uniquely qualified to tailor a solution for the controllers embedded in these appliances.”
