[REPORTER] 4th Industrial Revolution in Korea - Sangjun Kim

Fourth Industrial Revolution, how is it in Korea?

&nbsp;

The 4th Industrial Revolution represents a shift in the industrial environment that maximizes automation and connectivity with artificial intelligence. After becoming known through various books in 2015, it was also mentioned at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland on January 20, 2016.

The following notes are based on the technologies covered by Consumer Electronics Show : Big Data Statistical Analysis, Artificial Intelligence(AI), IoT, etc. How is it used or developing in Korea? I&rsquo;d like to show you the recent state of these technologies in Korea.

1. 5th generation mobile communication(5G)

5th generation mobile communication, abbreviated 5G, are the proposed next telecommunications standards beyond the current 4G /LTE standards. 5G is expected to be about 1000 times faster than existing 4G. In Korea, SK Telecom finished the development of 5G test network equipment along with Ericsson in June 2016. Also, KT will test drive its 5G service, which can be used in actual radio communication, at the Pyeongchang Olympics.

2. Artificial Intelligence(AI)

Artificial intelligence(AI) is the most important technology in the 4th industrial revolution. Also, AI became famous for Google Deepmind Match(Alphago vs Lee Sedol) in Korea, However, It is estimated that Korean AI lags behind advanced nations by more than 10 years. Even so, SK Telecom has launched artificial intelligent speakers, and Samsung Electronics has installed AI secretary service on the Galaxy S8, raising interest at AI among businesses.

3. Robot Technology

Robots have already become so popular that they don&#39;t need to be explained. Robots are already widely used in Korea, especially in the manufacturing sector. I visited the car factory a few weeks ago, and a lot of the car was already being built with robots. In addition to manufacturing, robots will later be made that used to be seen only in movies combined with artificial intelligence. It is also the field that I dream of in the future.

&nbsp;

4. IoT

&nbsp;

▲ Internet of Things (<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/internet-things-iot-prabhu-m)">https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/internet-things-iot-prabhu-m)</a>

 
The Internet of Things (IoT) is the network of physical devices, vehicles, home appliances and other items embedded with electronics , software, sensors, actuators, and network connectivity which enables these objects to connect and exchange data. I think this field is also a developed one in Korea. LG U-Plus developed IoT home service. IoT electronic device is automatically controlled via smartphone or voice anywhere. so you can save energy and time, and keep your home and family safe. Also, Korean companies are developing Smart City, and Connected Car.

&nbsp;

Despite being in the 4th Industrial Revolution era, South Korea is frankly lagging behind developed countries. Even so, Korea is an IT powerhouse. Wouldn&#39;t it someday be possible for our nation to catch up with developed countries and lead the 4th Industrial Revolution?
