[Asia Economy Reporter Jihee Kim] Mando and LG Uplus are collaborating on a 5G autonomous driving robot business.

On the 7th, Mando announced on the 8th that it held a signing ceremony for cooperation on the '5G Applied Autonomous Driving Robot Business' at the LG Uplus building in Yongsan. Key officials from both companies attended the ceremony, including Changhoon Oh, Vice President and WG Campus Head at Mando, and Wonseok Jo, Executive Director of LG Uplus Corporate New Business Group.

This collaboration aims to enhance the functionality of autonomous patrol robots using 5G communication and MEC (Mobile Edge Computing) technology. With this technology applied, Mando's autonomous patrol robot 'Goli' will be able to transmit Full High Definition (FHD) quality patrol video to the control center with ultra-low latency.

To achieve this, both companies will cooperate on ▲ integration of robots with 5G and MEC infrastructure ▲ establishment of ultra-low latency video surveillance solutions ▲ cloud-based robot computing demonstrations.

In May, Mando passed the ICT regulatory sandbox for 'outdoor autonomous patrol robot operation.' Since July, Goli has been operating on a trial basis at Baegot Saengmyeong Park. Through this collaboration with LG Uplus, they plan to optimize 5G network integration and video processing functions at Baegot Saengmyeong Park within this year.

Vice President Oh said, “This collaboration will innovatively improve the video processing performance of Mando's autonomous patrol robots,” adding, “We will promote the development of various additional services to enable the use of autonomous driving robots in diverse fields.”
