The Samsung 'Tag+' smart toy device is a new creation from the brand's C-Lab that is set to debut this year at CES 2017. Essentially a button-like device, the Samsung 'Tag+' works by being pressed, shaken or bumped in various sequences in order to create a kind of reactionary event. This comes in the form of whatever the child has programmed the particular toy that they are playing with to do.
The Samsung 'Tag+' smart toy device connects toys to the Internet to enable kids to share their experience with other users around the world in order to further implement the IOT into the framework. With toys becoming smarter and more integrated than ever, the Samsung 'Tag+' comes as a logical new release to help make toys more reactionary and modern.
