Smart sensor

Artificial intelligence is no longer just a laboratory technology or by futuristic applications: today it begins to be present even in the simplest daily gestures. A concrete example comes from the personal care sector, where also a common object such as electric razor becomes smart thanks to machine learning -based solutions. Philips, a Dutch company of reference in the sector, has launched the new range of electric razors with rotating heads, introducing advanced functions in the top model, the i9000 prestige ultra. This device is equipped with an intelligent sensor capable of analyzing the density of the hair 500 times per second and automatically adapting the power of the cut. The blades, designed to lift and cut the hair up to 0.08 mm from the root, reduce the risk of skin irritation. But the distinctive element is represented by the Skiniq Pro technology, which offers five customizable shaving modes. To support the user experience, an LED system also intervenes that lights up to guide the user during use, offering visual feedback in real time. Among the advanced features, Pressure Guard also stands out, a system designed to protect the skin by adjusting the pressure during shaving. This attention to the skin care – increasingly relevant concept also in the male public, especially in Asian markets such as South Korea – represents a new frontier for the category of intelligent razors.

The device is also supported by a mobile application that allows you to monitor the movements of the hand to optimize the shaving technique. An additional innovative element is the travel custody, designed to eliminate 99.9% of bacteria through a UV rays system: an attention to hygiene that fits perfectly into the post-painted context. The price, goes by itself, is not for everyone: 700 euros (the i9000 prestige ultra) for the top of the range. The line also includes two more accessible versions, respectively at 420 and 330 euros, with slightly reduced functionality.
