At the main CES 2015 keynote, Samsung CEO BK Yoon focused on the Internet of Things. The cool kids just say IoT here at CES, because it's a shorter way to refer to the massive influx of devices that have an internet connection and utilize cloud services to tie them all together. This past August, Samsung bought SmartThings, and it's using that purchase to full effect in 2015. SmartThings is releasing a new home hub that features a more powerful processor, backup battery, and contains a cellular connection for when the power goes out. Finally, the hub will also support Bluetooth Smart, which should help it connect to more devices (including, of course, Samsung phones, watches, TVs, and whatever else).
