Governance:
- AI Air Pollution Management Platform for City Governance, by Cameo. Introducing air pollution sensors that automatically detect environmental conditions such as temperature, humidity, and toxic substances. By linking with national monitoring station data, the system can analyse and provide estimations, early warning and locate the source of pollution.
- AI-based Platform for dengue fever prevention, by Wistron. To provide an effective solution to the spread of dengue fever in summer, AI image recognition has been combined with an automatic counting model to perform risk control and early warning analysis.
- Autonomous Intelligent Drones Solution, by CIRC. A commercial drone solution for security and industrial inspections using the smart fleet management system, providing on-site image collection in combination with an autonomous drone, to patrol large areas.
- Smart 3D Fire-fighting Position Tracking System, by eZoom. To improve rescue efficiency and public safety, 3D models of buildings are created with integrated Web GIS, indoor full panorama images and Personnel Tracking System. Commanders can track the location and status of firemen within a site through the real-time indoor positioning system.
- Smart VR/MR Disaster Reduction Service, by APEX. The integration of VR, MR, and 720o simulated wireless interactive technologies facilitate virtual disaster relief training. With the establishment of the database, domestic/foreign disaster cases are collected to research on the optimized disaster relief and prevention models and compile training material for domestic fire and disaster prevention industries, academia, and government to improve disaster relief capability.
Healthcare:
- Mobile Vision Testing Integrated Service, by Leosys. Healthcare Information Platform uses portable vision testing equipment with AI-assisted interpretation to provide examinations to people remotely. Increasing the number of vision tests in remote regions, provides warning of diseases, supplements the lack of medical personnel, reducing social, medical, and welfare costs.
