ConTILab Co., Ltd. (CEO Park Chan-sik) announced that it will participate in CES 2024, which will be held in Las Vegas, USA from Tuesday, January 9 to January 12 (Friday, local time) next year.
ConTILab is a laboratory company founded in 2022 by Chung-Ang University’s Construction Technology Innovation Laboratory. With the vision of ‘zero workplace accident rate’, we are developing the safety-related ‘iSafe’ platform that can prevent accidents at industrial sites.
Specifically, iSafe-Guard seeks to protect the precious lives of workers by providing products that can automatically identify various dangerous situations at construction sites using video AI technology that replaces human eyes and judgment.
Unlike existing general-purpose intelligent CCTV, iSafe-Guard’s AI detector, a video-based construction site risk determination AI technology, is a solution that can automatically detect risk situations that may occur during specific tasks. It can be used in the cloud, server, and edge according to the user’s requirements. It can be operated in various operating systems, such as mobile-based. It has the advantage of being able to be linked to various image acquisition devices such as fixed and mobile CCTV, robot dogs, and drones. In addition, it can provide not only simple risk detection and alarm methods, but also safety level evaluation information for each task.
In addition, iSafe-Meta creates a metaverse environment based on 3D-Mesh created by filming in the actual field, providing a venue where experts and workers from each industry can gather and share knowledge. Various content created by users is compensated with blockchain-based non-fungible tokens to attract a large number of users, and provides a solution that allows communication regardless of nationality by utilizing ChatGPT and automatic translation functions. It is characterized by .
In 2023, iSafe was applied to seven large-scale research projects and construction projects by domestic government agencies and more than two construction projects by private organizations, successfully completing verification in the fields of safety planning, education, and monitoring. In addition, in order to introduce iSafe in earnest to mandatory CCTV application sites in domestic local governments from 2024, ConTILab is in discussions with the relevant departments and is planning to expand overseas starting from Southeast Asian countries such as Vietnam and Indonesia. Through this, ConTILab announced its goal to grow into a global leader in the construction safety field and, furthermore, a first mover in safety management across all industries.
ConTILab said, “At CES 2024, ConTILab plans to introduce the iSafe platform, which can innovate existing safety management methods, to the global market and secure new global partners to apply the solution. In particular, we will seek opportunities to cooperate with global companies in the field of video AI analysis technology and metaverse-based communication platform development,” he said. “Through this, we will advance the unique approach developed by ConTILab to address the safety-related issues currently facing the industry.” “We want to be reborn as a company that plays a leading role in solving problems innovatively,” he explained.
He continued, “ConTILab aims to develop solutions that can be applied to safety management not only in the construction industry, but also in all industries, including shipbuilding and manufacturing industries. “We will continue to develop safety education content that reflects the characteristics of various industries and workers’ perspectives, design safety management processes, and develop technology to determine risk situations, and expand iSafe to contribute to improving society, the environment, and safety management structure.” reported.
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.

The CES 2024 Seoul Unified Hall will be operated at the largest scale in terms of exhibition area, number of participating companies, and number of participating supporters since Seoul City’s first participation in CES in 2020. The Seoul Integration Center, in which 13 organizations collaborate and participate, is an important step in Seoul’s efforts to make Seoul a mecca for startups, and 17 of the companies participating in the Seoul Integration Center proved this by receiving innovation awards. The participating institutions in the Seoul Unification Center are ▲SBA ▲Seoul Bio Hub ▲Campus Town ▲AI Yangjae Hub ▲Gwanak-gu ▲Yonsei University ▲Korea University ▲Chung-Ang University ▲Sogang University ▲Kookmin University ▲Hanyang University ▲Konkuk University ▲Kyunghee University. Not only the Seoul Metropolitan Government, institutions, and companies, but also supporters through industry-academia cooperation are matched 1:1 with companies, and 85 supporters, the largest number, will participate.
