At DSK 2026 (Drone Show Korea), which successfully wrapped up at BEXCO, Busan last February, FUNZIN garnered significant attention by unveiling its remarkable AI technologies expanded into the Public Safety sector!
๐ What Heated Up the Scene at DSK 2026?
1๏ธโฃ Unveiling the Mobile AI Brain: 'AI On-Site Command Vehicle' In collaboration with Sunjin Special Vehicle and Bando Electric Communication, FUNZIN introduced the On-Site Command Vehicle tailored for Public Safety operations. Integrated with FUNZINโs AI-based Command Decision Support System, 'KWM', the vehicle seamlessly fuses and analyzes data collected from numerous drones, robots, and sensors in real time. It serves as a perfect mobile command platform, assisting commanders with rapid, accurate situational awareness and decision-making.
2๏ธโฃ 'KWM-Ocelot' Mounted on UGVs (Robot Dogs) The exhibition also featured 'KWM-Ocelot' taking action both in the air and on the ground, mounted on drones and UGVs (robot dogs)! Even in adverse conditions where visibility is severely compromisedโsuch as heavy smoke or structural collapsesโit performs precise RF Signal Detection & Analysis. It is a powerful AI-based Electromagnetic Spectrum Reconnaissance System capable of rapid Source Localization to identify the exact positions of people in need of rescue or suspects. |
