Over the last three years, SRI-B has introduced several products and services for its Indian customers. When Bixby Voice came to India with the Galaxy Note8, it was optimized for India by the SRI-B team to understand English in Indian accents. The device was also embedded with a feature that recognized text messages written in Hindi with the S-Pen and converted the message into Devanagari script. Engineers at the R&D centre had recently developed the Social Camera mode that was launched in the Samsung Galaxy J7 Max Smartphone. The Social Camera mode allows users to instantly edit and share photos and videos directly to social media sites from their camera app. SRI-B has also developed the Samsung Tab IRIS, which is the first commercial IRIS integrated tablet to be approved by UIDAI for Aadhaar and KYC verification.<\/p>\n
