Berlin, Germany and Amsterdam, the Netherlands
– At the 2019 Internationale Funkausstellung (IFA,
September 6-11, Berlin, Germany), Royal Philips (NYSE: PHG, AEX:
PHIA), a global leader in health technology, today highlighted a
range of intelligent, adaptive and personalized consumer health
solutions that seamlessly integrate into people’s lives and
lifestyles, empowering them to make healthier choices and
fulfilling their personal needs.
“We are increasingly seeing the need for a personalized approach
to health. Consumers have never been more engaged in their health
and they want solutions that fit easily into their daily lives,”
said Roy Jakobs, Chief Business Leader Personal Health businesses
at Royal Philips. “We are using the very latest technologies to
work together to really understand consumers, so that our solutions
intelligently adapt to their needs. The innovations we are
showcasing at this year’s IFA offer consumers data-driven
personalized insights and coaching advice, making it easier for
them to adopt healthier choices that integrate seamlessly into
their daily routines.”
New Airfryer takes over and cooks for youWhat
we eat has a significant impact on our overall health and
wellbeing. Enjoying delicious healthy meals together with loved
ones not only makes for the best eating experience, it also boosts
one’s mood and helps to build relationships. However, for many
people, cooking involves quite a bit of guesswork. Recipes often
need to be adapted and how does one really know when a meal is
perfectly cooked. Building on the success of more than 10 million
Airfryers sold since 2008, Philips is taking the next step with the
new Philips Airfryer XXL featuring Smart Sensing technology that
takes over the cooking process to ensure a perfectly cooked meal.
It has five ‘smart chef’ programs for the most popular Airfryer
dishes. At the touch of a button, the Philips Smart Sensing
technology automatically adjusts the Airfryer’s time and
temperature settings, sealing in juices and flavors and delivering
superb tasting meals. Food is perfectly cooked, eliminating the
need to switch appliances or the chance of overlooking steps in the
cooking process.
Healthy looking and feeling skinWith a growing
number of men highlighting sensitive skin as a key issue when
shaving, the Philips Smart Shaver series 7000 analyzes shaver
motion and provides a personalized shaving plan to tackle specific
skin issues and needs. With the Smart Shaver series 7000, Philips
is spotlighting the world’s only connected AI-powered shaving
solution, with an in-built sensor to detect the user’s shaving
motion and provide visual guidance. Integrating easily into a daily
routine, the accompanying app uses a combination of daily questions
and sensor data to identify the health of the user’s skin and
provide a personalized shaving plan to help them keep their skin
healthy and looking great.
Sleeping well and getting enough restAlmost a
quarter of all women and around 40% of all men snore, often
disturbing the sleep of their partners [1] and for some, snoring is
caused by sleeping on their back. To solve this problem, Philips is
highlighting the SmartSleep Snoring Relief Band as the latest
innovation in its growing portfolio of consumer sleep solutions
aimed at addressing 80% of all sleep issues. Launching this year in
the United States and expanding into Europe and other global
markets in 2020, Philips’ Snoring Relief Band is a
clinically-proven, personalized solution for positional snoring
[2]. Worn in a soft band around the lower chest, a sensor monitors
when the wearer is turning onto their back. It detects the position
change and uses adaptive vibrations that prompt the wearer to move
onto their side to avoid the snoring position. Philips’ SmartSleep
offering also includes the Connected Sleep and Wake-up Light with
new and improved sleep coaching features, and the SmartSleep Deep
Sleep Headband.
Philips at IFA 2019Other innovations on display
at this year’s IFA in Berlin include Philips’ new line of Air
Purifiers, the complete oral care platform by Philips Sonicare,
including its latest Sonicare teledentistry service, its Pregnancy+
and Baby+ apps, which support parents from pregnancy to the baby’s
first years, and the Lumea Prestige and associated coaching app,
which provides women with a personalized hair removal treatment
plan. These solutions are showcased alongside many other
innovations in the areas of sleep, oral care, air purification,
nutrition and personal care.
The Philips press conference, hosted by Roy Jakobs, Chief
Business Leader Personal Health, takes place on September 5 at
12:15PM CET in Hall 22 in the Messe Berlin. A live stream of the
event can be viewed at the Philips IFA 2019 website. Roy will be
joined on stage by Kostas Vouzas, CEO Philips TV Europe at TP
Vision.
