In 2020, Samsung unveiled Ballie, its tiny robot on wheels, as a concept. Four years later, the company brought back a redesigned and significantly more capable version of the robot, signaling that it was finally ready for commercialization. Samsung initially said Ballie would launch later in 2024 before pushing the release to 2025 and even opening a sign-up page for interested buyers.Unfortunately, neither launch materialized. Samsung then skipped showcasing Ballie at CES 2026, strongly suggesting that it had canceled the product. However, the company may not have shelved Ballie after all, as the UI design for its companion app has now surfaced online (via SammyGuru). It offers a glimpse of Samsung's vision for the robot and the features it could offer.As you can see, at the top, there is a status card displaying the battery level, current location (Kitchen, Living Room, Station, etcetera), and status (Ready or Error). It also features a Streaming button, which we assume would let users view the feed from Ballie's onboard camera, allowing it to double as a home surveillance device.

There's also a Greeting section with a toggle, suggesting users may be able to enable Ballie to welcome people as they arrive homeâa capability Samsung has demonstrated before, with the robot recognizing family members and interacting with them.At the bottom are Media and Robot tabs. While it isn't clear what the Robot tab offers, the Media tab could provide controls for projecting content onto walls and other suitable surfaces using Ballie's built-in projector. Samsung has previously demonstrated the robot using the projector to display videos and video calls.

This suggests the robot can scan its surroundings and create a 3D map of the environment, similar to Samsung's robot vacuum cleaners. The latest discovery hints that the company may still be planning to bring the product to the market.
