LG Electronics Inc. on Thursday announced that it released 2024 LG Whisen Objet Collection Tower air conditioner, which features an artificial intelligence (AI) smart care system.

This new model boasts advanced AI capabilities, enhancing wind direction, strength, and temperature control for optimal comfort.

The air conditioner's AI Smart Care feature automatically adjusts settings based on the user's location, eliminating the need for manual adjustments of wind strength or direction.

It offers three distinct modes: Rapid Cooling delivers a strong breeze when it's hot, Comfortable Cooling gently cools without direct wind, and Air Purification activates when air quality is low.

The premium 9 series includes a radar sensor, enabling AI Smart Care to provide real-time cooling by pinpointing the user's location.

In the 7 series, AI Smart Care analyzes the installation space using the LG ThinQ app.

Users can tailor their cooling experience with modes like Home Training, Home Cinema, and Healing through the app.

The air conditioner also features an upgraded automatic cleaning function.

The Clean Outlet sterilizes the air outlet, while the Allergy Care Air Purification filter minimizes allergens.

Additionally, the Comfort Priority Mode maintains a cool temperature with about 77% less energy than the Ice Cool Power mode, which is the most energy-intensive cooling setting.
