Hyundai aims to make Factorial Seongsu the first building to apply our Robot Total Solution.
SEOUL, June 21 (The CONNECT) – Hyundai Motor Group today announced the deployment of Hyundai Motor and Kia’s ‘DAL-e Delivery’ robot and Hyundai WIA’s ‘Parking Robot’ at Factorial Seongsu, providing innovative services at the robot-friendly office building in Seoul.
At IGIS Asset Management’s Factorial Seongsu, occupants can enjoy beverage delivery from the DAL-e Delivery robot and parking services from the Parking Robot, both utilizing the Group’s latest technologies.
“With DAL-e’s full-fledged delivery service, we aim to make Factorial Seongsu the first building to apply our Robot Total Solution,” said Dong Jin Hyun, Vice President and Head of Robotics LAB at Hyundai Motor Company and Kia Corporation. “We plan to expand our robotics services to more buildings, making these technological enhancements a major criterion for space innovation.”
The Group has proposed a ‘Robot Total Solution’ development plan, which involves using various robots and facial recognition systems in smart buildings, starting with Factorial Seongsu. It also intends to develop a ‘multi-integrated control system’ for managing multiple delivery robots within the Robot Total Solution.
The standout feature of DAL-e Delivery is its autonomous driving capability to navigate across the building. DAL-e Delivery seamlessly interfacing with the elevator and door control system. It ensures quick delivery service by determining optimal routes in real-time. The robot features an 11.6-inch high-resolution display, offering a clear representation of the service status.
When a customer orders a drink through the mobile app, DAL-e Delivery takes the drink from the café located on the basement floor and delivers it to the customer’s chosen office space or meeting room. When the robot arrives at the delivery destination, it identifies the recipient through a camera and artificial intelligence (AI) Face Identification technology developed by the Robotics LAB that has an accuracy of 99.9 percent. Then, the storage tray comes forward automatically to deliver the drink.
DAL-e Delivery is equipped with a large cargo capacity, allowing it to carry up to 16 cups of coffee and items weighing up to 10 kg at a time. The Group expects the DAL-e Delivery service to greatly enhance convenience for building occupants. It intends to scale up the number of units and potentially broaden its offerings to include courier and mail delivery services in the future.
