Korea develops ultrasound-guided HIFU apparatus for 1st time in its history

As many as 300,000 Korean patients of uterine myoma are expected to take the opportunity to receive treatment quickly and effectively with local equipment from this year.

Alpinion Medical Systems, a company specializing in ultrasound medical devices and a subsidiary of Iljin Group, said last year that it has developed a treatment apparatus utilizing High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) and has recently given final permission of medical appliances in the manufacturing list by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety.

Some Korean companies including Alpinion and Samsung Medison have already developed and sold ‘ultrasound imaging apparatus’ for diagnosis of diseases but this is the first time for Korea to develop the HIFU apparatus which needs far higher technical skills with local technology. About 20 medical device manufacturers around the world tried to develop the HIFU apparatus but a few global companies such as GE and Philips succeeded in releasing the product on the market because of high technical barriers.

The product can get rid of tumors from diseased areas of a uterine myoma patient, which helps the reduction of unnecessary total hysterectomy. In particular, Alpinion has raised anticipations of possible time and cost savings as it applied ultrasound-guided method instead of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)- guided method used by most of its competitors.

Seoul Forest

Seoul Forest is the metropolitan government’s answer to Central Park in New York City. Based on its plan to create a forest in the Ttukseom area, the metropolitan government worked for one year to open the vast, artificially formed forest to the public in June 2005.

The forest covers some 1.15 million m2 of land, with a total of 420,000 trees of 104 different species were transplanted here to emphasize the ecofriendly image of the forest. The trees are about 20 meters tall and 30 to 40 centimeters in diameter. Oak, hornbeam and cherry trees are most common here, most of which are of Korean origin. The forest consists of five areas under different themes.

Seoul-Forest_1 The first themed land is called “TtukSeom Culture and Art Park,” which includes a plaza, outdoor stage, an artificial pond, an atelier and a gateball court. The second one is “TtukSeom Ecology Forest, a grand ecological forest which is home to such wild species as the Formosan deer, Chinese water deer, squirrels and fallow deer (they were released into the forest when it opened) (a guided tour is available).

Seoul-Forest The area is connected to Hangang Waterside Park via a 472-meter -long bridge. “Wetlands Ecological Field”, the third area, features a bird observatory, an eco-friendly playground and Jeongsu botanical garden. The fourth area, “Hands-on Nature Learning Center,” is a place where visitors can gain hands-on knowledge and see examples of various plants. This area also features Gallery Garden, a greenhouse and a flower garden made from the water purifying facilities which had long been used here. The fifth area is Hangang Waterside Park which includes a cycle trail and a boat terminal.

CES 2015

CES 2015 reaffirms Korea as an electronics powerhouse with challenges to fundamentally improve the nation’s electronics industry

The recently ended CES 2015 was a place by which Korean people could reassert its status as a one of the global leading nations in the electronics industry. At the same time, concerns were raised among participants over too much investment in TVs and home appliances compared with other areas of electric items.

Samsung Electronics and LG Electronics displayed SUHD TVs and OLED TVs, each, and succeeded in making a big promotion at a similar level to what they intended. The two companies have also competitively unveiled futureoriented home appliances including next-generation washing machines capable of supporting high competitive washing functions. In particular, they emphasized “openness” in line with the era of Internet of Things (IoT). This means such an approach could help Korea take the market initiative of IoT in the near future in the global market.

CES-2015_! However, warning voices among industry experts are being raised over excessive underestimation of overseas competitive rivals including companies of Japan and China. A series of related products including 4K(3840 x 2160)cameras, switchers, from Sony, switchers, displayed at the CES 2015, were in the middle of such atmosphere – industry experts openly say Japanese companies still partly affect the quality of Korean-made TVs. Also, Sony’s integrated 4K chipset technology and Panasonic’s aerial entertainment system, unveiled at the exhibition, raised awareness of the importance of the secure of the basic technologies among participants at the fair.

The growing competition from Chinese home appliance makers emerged as an urgent challenge that needs to be addressed in the near future. In fact, Some Chinese companies including Hisense, Changhong, massively presented their cutting-edge technologies in the area of smart home including smart switch, electric bulb by utilizing their prior experiences of chasing after Korean companies in the field of TVs. Chinese-made products are being considered home appliances enhanced in terms of design and performance. This means, regarding the so-called, “Chinese Shock,” by last year, TVs were at center stage, but from this year, home appliances are emerging as a frontrunner by replacing the existing role of TVs.

The world’s 1st IoT complexes led by Korean government to be materialized

According to a recent announcement by the Ministry of Science, ICT and Future Planning and the National IT Industry Promotion Agency (NIPA), two complexes of Internet of Things (IoT) will be constructed in Korea for the first time in the world. The so-called ‘Smart Service’ is expected to be realized in some cities of Korea from the second half of this year.

The-world’s-1st-IoT-complexes In these complexes, business processes can be connected to the Internet, beyond connections between equipment and person and between equipment and equipment.

The candidate locations discussed for the plan are now in four cities – Bukchon (traditional culture) in Seoul; Centum City in Haeundae, Busan; Songdo in Incheon; and Healthcare Complex in Daegu. Korean government will select two among the four candidate places by March, introducing service in the second half through preparations including platform construction. The government has already arranged budget worth 12.5 billion won ($11.5 million) for the realization of the complexes.

The-world’s-1st-IoT-complexes_1 A spokesperson of the ministry noted, “The purpose of the IoT complexes, which have been pursued this time, is to identify profitable services by integrating public information with technologies from the private sector,” adding, “We are considering to offer developer tools, which are easy to develop, for private companies to lead in the global market.” Korean government selected home appliances, home, vehicles, education, distribution, industrial safety and energy as fields for new industrialization of IoT.
