Advanced 5G Industry 4.0 Studio opens in Singapore

The studio will test the business applications of AI and 5G technology.

Singapore's first 5G industry 4.0 studio is now open.

In a statement, IBM announced the launch of the IBM Industry 4.0 Studio, the project it has been working with Samsuing Electronics, M1, and the Infocomm Media Development Authority. It opened on 16 March.

The studio will host Singpore's first 5G industry 4.0 trial, testing its applications to the manufacturing sector whilst optimising the performance of 5G technology for industrial use.

The studio will focus on visual recognition solutions, acoustic insights, augmented reality, automated guided vehicles, artificial intelligence, container-based applications, and 5G end-to-end solutions.

IBM expects full-fleged 5G standalone capability to cover at least half of the city-state by 2022.

"5G presents an enormous opportunity for enterprises to drive new value and transform their operations to harness the next era of industrial connectivity... It is crucial these businesses have an opportunity to test and evaluate these technological investments, and we are committed to working shoulder to shoulder with them to ensure they make the best decisions that will truly propel their businesses forward,” IBM APAC general manager Brenda Harvey said in a statement.
