Aerospace and defense firm Huneed Technologies, headquartered in Incheon is showcasing its cutting edge communications technology at the Seoul International Aerospace and Defense Industry Exhibition (Seoul ADEX 2019) at Seoul Airport being held through Sunday.
As a longstanding developer and manufacturer of tactical wireless communication systems for the South Korean military, Huneed began building its business as an aerospace manufacturer under global aerospace standards and certifications in 2008.
During the exhibition, Huneed hopes to announce new business projects with the aim of expanding overseas.
“ADEX, Korea's largest international air defense exhibition, is serving as a great opportunity to showcase our vision for the future,” Huneed Technologies Chairman Eugene Kim said in a statement. “We will strengthen our partnerships with global companies at ADEX and continue to grow our business worldwide.”
The company is exhibiting its “Light Fidelity” (LiFi) system, developed with France's Latecoere, an innovative in-flight entertainment and communication system.
LiFi takes advantage of wavelengths of light from LEDs to transmit information, allowing users to use the network wherever there is LiFi light.
The company is also showcasing its 3D printing hardware and a reconnaissance artificial intelligence (AI) system alongside its military tactical communications systems and designs, while promoting its manufacturing expertise in aviation and electronics, and maintenance, repair, and overhaul services.
Aiming to expand globally, Huneed recently unveiled its Vision 2025, a goal of transforming the company through Industry 4.0 technology initiatives. Huneed is already actively engaged in 3D printing and has been using AI as a key technology to help transform warfighting capabilities.
