LG Electronics is positioning robotic actuators — the joints that drive robots — as a next-generation growth engine, with the company nearing what could be its first major order from a global technology giant. Baek Seung-tae, head of LG Electronics' home appliance business, said the company has developed actuators that are more efficient, lighter and cost-competitive than rival products, and it is preparing for mass production, Saturday. "We are pursuing orders from several big technology compan
Dyson is extending artificial intelligence, vision systems and sensor-based automation across its appliance portfolio, introducing a new robot cleaner family alongside its first oral-care device and updated air-treatment and beauty products. At its Dyson Unveiled event in Berlin on Thursday, Chief Engineer Jake Dyson said the company is shifting its focus from mechanical performance alone toward products that can interpret and respond to data about their surroundings. “Now Dyson is moving beyond
Shinsegae Group Chairman Chung Yong-jin joined US Vice President JD Vance and leading technology executives in Washington on Thursday for the launch of a government-backed expertise program, as the Korean retail group expands its role in a US-led AI supply chain initiative.

Trump Institute of Peace at the invitation of US Vice President JD Vance and the US Department of State. Foundry School, led
LG Electronics’ reported talks to take on part of SK hynix’s next-generation enterprise SSD controller design have ended after the memory maker decided to do the work in-house, according to local media reports. The two companies held several meetings in July and August over outsourcing part of the controller’s physical backend design to LG Electronics, the reports said, citing semiconductor industry sources. The work involves turning a chip’s circuit design into the detailed physical layout need
Samsung Electronics lifted its share of global high-bandwidth memory revenue to 33 percent in the second quarter, narrowing the gap with market leader SK hynix to 17 percentage points. Samsung’s share jumped from 21 percent in the first quarter as it expanded shipments of its latest HBM products to major global technology companies, Counterpoint Research said Friday. SK hynix retained the top spot with 50 percent of revenue in the April-June period, down from 64 percent a year earlier. Micron Te
“The Indiana fab will become a gateway to deliver the first ‘Made in USA’ HBM products,” SK hynix CEO Kwak Noh-jung said at the groundbreaking ceremony on Aug. 26. Those products, however, will begin in South Korea. SK hynix will make the DRAM wafers at its Korean fabs, ship them across the Pacific and then stack, package and test them in West Lafayette, Indiana. The $4 billion-plus facility, the company's first HBM production base in the US, is due to begin mass production in the second half of

Rapid AI data center expansion is pushing Samsung Electronics and SK hynix to compete over high-capacity enterprise solid-state drives, as the AI infrastructure race moves toward storage solutions. For much of the AI boom, investment has focused on computing power required to accelerate AI model training, particularly graphics processing units (GPUs) and high-bandwidth memory (HBM). But as large language models become more complex and AI inference services expand, the industry faces another chal
Samsung Electronics and LG Electronics are using IFA 2026 in Berlin to show how they want AI to work across the home, not just inside individual appliances. Samsung opened its main IFA exhibition Wednesday at Humboldt Carre in central Berlin, ahead of the trade show's Friday opening at Messe Berlin. The company is presenting "AI Living" across TVs, home appliances and Galaxy devices. Samsung first introduced the broader "Your Companion to AI Living" theme at CES in January. At IFA, it is bringin
Gaon Cable is targeting the AI data-center power infrastructure market with low-friction distribution cables designed to cut installation time and costs, the company said Wednesday. The cables feature an improved outer sheath that reduces friction during installation by about 30 percent compared to conventional products. Gaon Cable said this can extend the cable-pulling distance by up to 45 percent while lowering labor requirements and construction costs. Distribution cables are used in certain
