Starfield COEX Mall Emart24 Adopts Cutting-Edge Security Technology View original image

[Asia Economy Reporter Cha Min-young] The Emart24 store at Starfield COEX Mall in Seoul will be reborn on the 8th as a 'Safe Smart Store' applying cutting-edge security technology.


The Ministry of Science and ICT unveiled a demonstration model of the Safe Smart Store created in collaboration with the private sector on the 7th. A Safe Smart Store refers to a store that applies an automated system from customer entry to product purchase and payment, integrating security technologies and intelligent CCTV.


The Safe Smart Store verifies the identity of entrants and allows access only to users with valid authentication information. By linking CCTV and LiDAR sensors, it detects and prevents users from damaging or stealing items and identifies emergency situations such as fires. It also eliminates security threats such as payment information tampering or payment bypass.


The Ministry of Science and ICT plans to use artificial intelligence (AI) technology to learn situations such as users collapsing or illegal intrusion into the store by the end of the year and to supplement vulnerabilities in devices and equipment.


The Ministry plans to establish a smart store security technology test bed by the end of December this year. At the test bed, core security technologies of smart stores such as video recognition, visualization processing, and machine learning will be inspected, and intelligent physical security solutions will be tested.



Minister Lim Hye-sook of the Ministry of Science and ICT said, "With the digital transformation, advanced convergence security technology is being applied to smart stores, opening a new non-face-to-face market," adding, "We will develop security models and technologies for smart stores and support stores operated by small business owners to create a new digital security market."
