Moreover, it significantly reduces the overall costs associated with large-scale robotic implementations by enabling real-time data capture of high-quality multimodal information, allowing rapid iterations in embodied AI foundational models.
Open Gateway Challenge Award: AI-Powered Open Gateway Solution
ZTE sustained its winning streak with the
Open Gateway Challenge Award for its groundbreaking
AI-Powered Open Gateway solution. This accolade was awarded through a collaboration that involved the Network Department of the China Mobile Group, the China Mobile Hangzhou Research Institute, and JD.com. This year’s project built upon the successes of last year, reflecting ZTE's ongoing commitment to innovation and strategic partnerships.
The AI-Powered Open Gateway addresses industrial customers' challenges, particularly related to high barriers for utilizing CAMARA APIs and low execution efficiency in specific scenarios. With robust backing from ZTE's NEF core network products, this initiative enables significant innovations such as intent recognition, smart coordination, operator interoperability, and protocol extension.
This project exemplifies a fruitful partnership with JD.com, leveraging core features of 5G networks to enhance customer service innovation, thereby creating a novel paradigm in intelligent customer service and significantly improving response times and client satisfaction.
Best Event Activation Award: 5G-A-Powered Concert Live Streaming Project
Furthermore, ZTE, in collaboration with China Telecom and RJ, clinched the
Best Event Activation Award for the
5G-A-Powered Live Streaming Project for Concerts. This initiative successfully highlighted the commercialization of 5G-A within the live streaming sector, driving transformative changes across various live streaming scenarios, including cultural and entertainment events and education.
The solution was first showcased at the Hangzhou Olympic Sports Center in Zhejiang Province, where it significantly enhanced live concert broadcasts. The results set a replicable standard for the innovation and widespread application of wireless live streaming in the industry.
The EasyOn•Live solution achievedUpload peak rates exceeding 2 Gb/s for individual camera feeds, thus streamlining the transmission of high-resolution and concurrent live streams. Enhanced by the NodeEngine Computing Engine, the solution minimizes data transmission pathways, ensuring security and efficient provision of private networks.
The application of 5G-A SuperMIMO technology guarantees stable and seamless image transfers, even in adverse weather conditions, addressing the central challenges faced by event organizers. Compared to traditional DVB-standard solutions, it offers comprehensive multi-camera coverage and enhanced stability without necessitating additional costly hardware.
