The market for smart industrial accident prevention solutions is emerging as a new market for telecommunications companies. The Act on Punishment of Serious Disasters, which came into effect on January 27, is the detonator. One of the strengths of mobile telecommunications companies is that they can easily utilize basic technologies such as communication networks and artificial intelligence (AI). Sejong Telecom, a medium-sized mobile communication service company, announced on the 16th that it will cooperate with AI robot system companies Hyunsung and Timon to enter the 5th generation (5G) communication specialized network (Eum, 5G)-based safety management platform business. Sejong Telecom will provide communication networks and solutions using the 5G specialized network currently under construction at the Internet Data Center (IDC) in Bundang-gu, Seongnam-si, Gyeonggi-do. Hyunsung is in charge of the 'AI rail robot' that combines information and communication technology (ICT), and Timon is in charge of the integrated control platform. Once the platform is completed, it plans to complete a service model for companies, starting with applying it as a model to distribution centers of logistics companies. This platform is characterized by intelligent rail robots equipped with security cameras (CCTV) that move inside and outside the distribution center to detect emergency disaster situations and transmit high-definition images in real time. Utilizing a 5G specialized network that is used in limited spaces such as specific buildings, the transmission speed is fast and big data processing is easy 24 hours a day. ○Artificial intelligence "Autofence"
"Industrial accident prevention solution" Telecommunications industry competes
Prior to this, KT installed 'AI auto fences (photo)' at 11 manufacturing sites in Kia's Gwangju plant. AI is a system that recognizes people and automatically stops the lift, applying sensor technology that is a rider that recognizes 3D space. A KT official said, "It can be applied to all sites where there is a risk of pinching and narrowing accidents." We are continuing to work together,” he said. ○ IoT safety equipment LG Uplus is jointly developing a 'smart safety device management system' in cooperation with Hyundai Elevator. Smart safety equipment Internet (IoT) sensors are applied to safety helmet chin straps, safety rings, etc. to manage whether workers wear safety equipment. We plan to develop a dedicated app platform to recognize dangers in advance and prevent crash accidents. The company has selected 30 model sites and plans to begin demonstrations in May. ○ Intelligent Mobile CCTVSK Telecom has also developed construction disaster prevention solutions. Together with affiliated company SK Shield, it built a “smart safety platform” and first introduced it to construction sites where SK had many accidents. We use biometric recognition, IoT sensors, and smart band technology that combine intelligent mobile CCTV and wearable cameras with AI to check the health status of workers at the entry and exit stages.
