Control lighting, heating, gas shut-off valves, etc., by voice and smartphone

IPARK, Korea's leading apartment brand from HDC Hyundai Development, is being upgraded into a state-of-the-art apartment by combining with SK Telecom's artificial intelligence technology and home IoT service, 'Smart Home'.

SK Telecom, HDC Hyundai Development, and HDC iControl announced on the 27th that they have signed a partnership agreement to apply AI and IoT services within IPARK apartments at Hyundai Development's Yongsan office building.
This contract involves connecting and providing SK Telecom's 'Smart Home' services, such as lighting, heating, gas shut-off valves, door opening sensors, and standby power cut-off outlets, for IPARK apartments to be sold starting this year.

All provided devices can be operated by voice through AI devices, and additionally, SK Telecom 'Smart Home' compatible devices such as air conditioners, air purifiers, and robot vacuums can also be controlled via the app when purchased. In addition, we plan to provide services such as visitor verification, unmanned parcel locker verification, and elevator calling.

HDC Hyundai Development Company and SK Telecom plan to sequentially apply smart home features to IPARK apartments being sold this year and intend to expand this service to existing apartments as well.

Jeong Hyeon, CEO of HDC iControls, stated, "We expect that the convergence of iControls' years of accumulated home IoT technology with SK Telecom's New ICT will serve as a catalyst for the transformation of the home IoT industry from a hardware-centric model to a service-centric one," adding, "We will provide customers with a richer living environment through mutual cooperation with SK Telecom across various fields."
