Conversational AI Assistant Service

https://korean-electronics.com//inquiry

[INQ. NO. 2405E01] ESTsoft introduced PERSO LIVE, a generative (interactive) AI assistant service that combines ChatGPT with AI Human at the recently held WIT.
PERSO LIVE is operated by combining the virtual human ‘Natalie’ and Chat GPT. Natalie is an IP (intellectual property) produced by ESTsoft. When users input their questions by voice or text, an AI assistant capable of speaking 110 languages answers within three seconds.
In this way, with PERSO LIVE, anyone around the world can easily experience ESTsoft’s interactive AI human in real time, and it is provided on both the Web and mobile.

According to ESTsoft, AI human Natalie is evaluated as showing a high lip synchronization rate and natural movements as if talking to a person.
According to service users, AI Human Natalie feels more like one is interacting with a person rather than a mechanical device. It is evaluated that it has overcome the ‘uncanny valley’ that can be felt in AI human with a mouth shape that matches the pronunciation and a natural facial expression.

Meanwhile, ESTsoft’s expectations for the economic potential of PERSO LIVE are very high – illustrated by the fact that the CEO of the company made positive remarks on the recognition of AI human service’s technological excellence and economic value through winning the Innovation Award at this WIT.
A spokesperson for ESTsoft commented, “We expect to achieve good results in the global market as it will be provided as SaaS (Software as a Service) starting in May,” adding, “As we set this year as the first year of our global expansion, we will do our best to secure the global market for generative AI.”

AI Video Surveillace Camera

[INQ. NO. 2404E07] TRUEN, a company specializing in on-device (edge) AI camera-based video surveillance platforms, unveiled the AI camera TA Series with high performance and various artificial intelligence (AI) functions at the 23rd International Security Exhibition & Conference (SECON 2024).
The AI camera introduced by TRUEN was jointly developed with Hailo, an AI SoC (System on Chip) company. By applying TRUEN’s AI technology to an optimized, high-performance AI SoC that supports video processing and analysis, it is expected to provide users with innovative solutions that support various artificial intelligence (AI) functions, high accuracy, and strong security.
TRUEN’s AI camera (TA series) has a ‘smart shot’ function that recognizes optimal objects in real time; a behavior analysis function that recognizes fights, collapses, loitering, crowding – and it has several artificial intelligence (AI) functions including vehicle safety monitoring functions such as license plate recognition and vehicle speed detection, simultaneously.

Based on its high SoC performance, the TA series has increased the recognition distance and number of simultaneously recognized objects by up to two times compared to existing products – and has the advantage of executing multiple artificial intelligence (AI) functions at the same time. For example, a vehicle surveillance system that simultaneously executes artificial intelligence (AI) functions such as object detection and automatic license plate recognition (ANPR) is possible.
TRUEN is developing artificial intelligence (AI) functions (AI WDR, AI De-fog, AI DIS, AI De-noising, AI De-blurring) to improve video quality for accurate object detection even in adverse conditions such as bad weather or low-light environments. Through this, the company expects to improve real-time object recognition on-device while providing the best image quality.
A spokesperson for the company explained, “We are solidifying our position by leading the technology in the field of AI video surveillance by providing complete and scalable on-device (Edge) AI solution products through the launch of our high-end on-device (Edge) AI IP camera.”

AI Breaker Solution

https://korean-electronics.com//inquiry

[INQ. NO. 2404E03] Artificial intelligence (AI) is also being introduced in the field of social safety, and ‘smart cities’ are being created everywhere.
Amano Korea Co., Ltd. introduced an AI breaker solution at SECON 2024. This solution is based on AI object- and person- detection technology installed in CCTV. First, when a pedestrian traffic light shows a red no-walking signal, the blocking bar operates to block traffic. If a pedestrian attempts to jaywalk, the system recognizes the movement and issues a warning through a speaker.
The same applies to vehicles. When the traffic light changes to yellow, it recognizes vehicles approaching the crosswalk and sends out the same warning broadcast.
The solution comes in the form of two products –a product that includes a traffic light, and another that only has a blocking function, so it can be used according to conditions such as around existing traffic lights or for new installations.
A spokesperson for the company explained, “We applied the know-how gained from developing and operating existing parking control solutions,” adding “It is a solution that goes beyond security to provide protection. We plan to supply it to local governments starting this year, targeting places where parents and guardians need to walk, including children’s protection areas.”

Founded in 1996 as a Korean subsidiary of Amano, a global parking company, Amano Korea has succeeded in localizing 100% of its parking-control products, and exports its products and solutions to Japan, Europe, the Americas, Southeast Asia, and Latin America.
In particular, it provides the best parking solution created by combining Japanese mechanical technology with Korean IT technology. Amano Korea’s competitiveness and differentiation strategy are the hardware with the best safety and durability, and the system with the best software specialized in the field.
Smart technology-oriented changes are taking place in parking lots such as parking control systems, parking guidance/video location systems, and camera-based security solutions. Amano Korea is leading the market based on its technology to develop and produce all these systems, and is developing various related businesses, including smart parking systems, with parking lots as a platform.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) Security Solution

https://korean-electronics.com//inquiry

[INQ. NO. 2404E02] DEEPNOI’s artificial intelligence (AI) security solution is software that detects registered items by introducing an artificial intelligence reading system (S/W) to X-ray equipment. DEEPNOI provides ‘SkyMARU DEEP:SECURITY,’ an automatic aviation-security X-ray reading solution, and ‘DEEP:Security,’ an automatic corporate-security X-ray reading solution.

SkyMARU DEEP:SECURITY: Aviation security X-ray automatic reading solution
SkyMARU DEEP:SECURITY was developed jointly with the Korea Airports Corporation and assists security personnel in visual reading by quickly and accurately detecting prohibited items on board. It detects more than 20 types of items prohibited from being carried on board as notified by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport (MOLIT). DEEPNOID has actual references for the detected items – in collaboration with the Korea Airports Corporation.

DEEP:Security: Corporate security X-ray automatic-reading solution
DEEP:Security uses AI to automatically identify items at risk of information leaks, such as USBs, smartphones, and storage devices, when passing through security checkpoints, and thus assists security guards in their reading tasks. It is easy to apply to fields that require security upon entry, such as institutions and private companies. Excellent scalability allows users to add or delete desired detection-items according to companies’ characteristics.
When passing through the security checkpoint, AI automatically detects hidden items in the bag. The location of the dangerous items is displayed in the shape of a box, and a related message alert notifies you of the item. The two solutons detect a bag quickly in continuous baggage video with a cycle of one second per bag image, and consistently provides reading accuracy at a high level of approximately 95%. This makes it possible to build an efficient security workflow.

DEEPNOID Co., Ltd. is a company specializing in AI software. The company was listed on the KOSDAQ in 2021 in recognition of its expertise and technology in the AI field based on its excellent R&D capabilities.
DEEPNOID is carrying out business in various areas such as smart factory and medical care, starting with the security AI industry – under the vision of ‘Through AI, We make your life wider, bolder and clearer.’
