Smart Geotech Co., Ltd. announced that it will participate in CES 2024, which will be held in Las Vegas, USA from Tuesday, January 9 to Friday, January 12, next year (local time).
Smart Geotech, established in 2017, is a company specializing in the development and supply of ICT convergence products in the disaster safety field and specializes in developing high-sensitivity sensor-based measurement systems using Internet of Things technology (IoT). We develop and supply disaster safety management products such as MEERKAT (smart slope collapse forecasting and warning system) and smart steel pipe multi-stage system.
It has received numerous awards, including the IR52 Jang Young-sil Award and the Korea Safety Technology Award, and has the technology to obtain numerous patents and certifications at home and abroad. A Smart Geotech official said, “Our company is contributing to building a smart city ecosystem, and is also actively working to develop Eco-Design products using renewable energy to reduce greenhouse gases in accordance with the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change.”
He continued, “To build a smart city that is effective in preventing urban disaster safety in developing countries, we are building and demonstrating a customized solution that provides early warning of landslide collapse in Turkiye Sakarya Metropolitan City. “Through these global demonstration projects, we are proving the efficiency and reliability of overseas ground collapse detection and prediction solutions, and contributing to the establishment of a national smart city service platform,” he added.
At this CES 2024, Smart Geotech plans to exhibit ‘MEERKAT’, an intelligent sensor-based displacement measurement system, at ‘Eureka Park’, which collects and displays innovative startup products.
‘MEERKAT’ is a product that utilizes cutting-edge disaster prevention technology using IoT, which is optimized to minimize disaster damage by precisely detecting and monitoring minute displacement through Ground Displacement Detection capability at the 0.01mm level. ‘MEERKAT’, which consists of a smart displacement sensor, an IoT sensor node, and a gateway for real-time notification, secures critical response time in the event of landslides and rockfalls through advance detection and early warning, thereby effectively reducing damage to life and property. This is the explanation of the official.
The special advantage of ‘MEERKAT’ is that it can operate the system accurately and efficiently without the input of additional professional personnel by utilizing automated monitoring and machine learning algorithms. The intuitive design makes installation easy, and its advantage is that it can measure with excellent accuracy regardless of inclination. In addition, it features an Eco-Design design utilizing eco-friendly, low-power renewable energy and a low-cost, high-efficiency system capable of remote fault diagnosis.
An official said, “’MEERKAT’, which has a flexible structure that seamlessly integrates with various sensors and applications, is optimized for IoT and ensures rapid data delivery and accuracy. “The rod-type displacement sensor using wireless communication shows excellent adaptability even in resource-limited environments, and is proving its efficiency and reliability by carrying out global demonstration projects as a customized solution for urban disaster safety prevention.”
Meanwhile, ‘CES’, the world’s largest IT exhibition hosted by the Consumer Technology Association (CTA), is an exhibition where you can see the flow of innovative technologies around the world at a glance and is held every January in Las Vegas, USA. AVING News, which has covered CES for 18 consecutive years, has reported CES news around the world every year since 2006, and has been selected through ‘BEST OF CES’ and ‘BEST OF MADE IN KOREA’, which select the best innovative products, companies and technologies. has been in progress. In addition, CES on-site issues are vividly conveyed through ‘AVING LIVE’.
