Telefónica has announced that it will show in MWC Barcelona this week how it is implementing 5G, edge computing and deep learning technologies in the industry so that it can take full advantage of the extraordinary opportunity offered by digital transformation.
In line with its commitment to putting technology at the service of people and the protection of the planet, reducing environmental impact and offering its customers solutions that allow them to develop their activity in a more efficient and sustainable way, Telefónica has developed a series of services and applications based on these new technologies that it will showcase during MWC.
Through different success stories collected in the 'Connected Industry' demo, available both at the company's physical stand in the MWC facilities and virtually in the digital twin, Telefónica demonstrates that all these technologies are already being applied and constitute a measurable reality that can be replicated in other cases or industries.
This is the context of Telefónica's project carried out with the Port Authority of Bilbao and Allread, which consists of the application of artificial vision technologies based on deep learning, for the real-time recognition of vehicle, container and goods number plates and badges, allowing automated access control.
Telefónica, together with APM Terminals and Mobile World Capital, is also working on a pilot project to improve safety in ports thanks to the use of 5G networks. The aim of this solution is to coordinate the terminal's port traffic by being able to anticipate and notify potential accidents. This use case, which is based on C-V2X connected car technology, the low latency of 5G communications, the processing capacity of edge computing servers and precise location technology, aims to make APM Terminals Barcelona a safer place for workers.
