The ‘Innovative Product Pilot Use Project’ is a program in which the Public Procurement Service purchases innovative prototypes from small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), allowing public institutions to pilot and test them, and supports commercialization and market entry based on the test results.

As a result of being selected as a pilot institution, the corporation will receive a budget of 33 million KRW from the Public Procurement Service and plans to install a ‘crowd counting and alert system using artificial intelligence’?a product from a venture SME?at multi-use facilities.

This system is an AI-based smart system that collects and analyzes information on crowd density on-site via CCTV, provides real-time updates, and issues voice alerts according to the level of risk.

Chairman Kim Jonghae said, “With the establishment of a smart surveillance system following our selection as a pilot institution, we expect to further strengthen customer safety by preventing crowd accidents in advance.”
