[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Hye-seon] LG Uplus announced on the 19th that it has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Korea Senior Citizens Welfare Association and NetOn to implement intelligent CCTV systems in nursing facilities nationwide.

As CCTV usage expands, the need to protect the privacy of caregivers and elderly residents is increasing, raising interest in measures to safeguard personal information. Accordingly, LG Uplus and NetOn, a company specializing in AI vision recognition, will provide nursing homes with an intelligent CCTV solution that differs from conventional CCTV by using AI to detect faces in the video and automatically apply mosaic blurring, enabling monitoring of the site without exposing personal information.

This solution utilizes multi-face recognition technology to simultaneously detect up to 20 people and employs face tracking technology to ensure moving individuals are also mosaicked without omission.

To provide a solution optimized for nursing home environments, LG Uplus will pilot the intelligent CCTV system starting this month in 20 nursing homes under the Korea Senior Citizens Welfare Association.

A product combined with the ‘U+ Smart Radar,’ which detects changes in seniors’ posture to prevent falls within nursing homes, will be launched in the fourth quarter. LG Uplus plans to continuously expand customized solutions tailored to address the practical challenges faced by nursing homes.
