"빈자리 찾아 자로 잰 듯 주차"…LGU+ 세계 첫 5G 자율주차 공개
How many of you have experience making circles looking for parking space? How many times have you wished your car could locate public parking nearby, drive AND park at an empty space on its own?
We all know the latter is very much possible with autonomous driving; the former would require 5G technology and a cloud-based control center.
A South Korean mobile network operator successfully demoed the world's first self-parking system using 5G.
Bae Eun-ji gives us a peek.
This mobile app shows empty spaces at a nearby public parking lot.
The person clicks on one of the blue parking spots and presses the button that says "start autonomous parking".
The car then drives itself along the streets of Seoul and parks itself safely in the parking lot.
South Korea's major mobile network operator, LG U+ has successfully demonstrated the world's first autonomous parking system using 5G technology.
"The self-parking system does not just provide convenience to drivers, but it also saves a lot of time."
Back in March, the company demonstrated a self-driving car using 5G on the streets of Seoul,... again a world first.
Instead of simply recognizing traffic through cameras, the cars receive traffic information through 5G, which is much safer for the passengers.
And empty parking spots are detected through CCTV installed in public parking lots.
"So far, self-driving cars used cameras to check the traffic lights, which has some risk of error. But with 5G, there is "zero" possibility that it can misidentify a traffic light, as it accurately identifies the traffic signals."
The professor added that he hopes this service will help citizens who have difficulty driving,... such as the elderly and those with disabilities.
