ST Engineering Annual Report 2022

We continued to establish strategic partnerships with technology leaders to develop and offer value-added solutions for our customers. For our 5G-in-a-Box solution, we collaborated with Intel, Nokia and EdgeQ to develop an adhoc, rapid deployment of a Private 5G network where ruggedness, size, weight and power are major concerns. Capable of deployment in various settings, the 5G-in-aBox is especially powerful when installed on a mobile platform, providing a non-infrastructure based private 5G Network. We are also exploring with partners to co-develop solutions in the domains of AI, Adaptive Learning, Training Simulators and Satellite Communications for overseas markets. In the pursuit of new communications and connectivity technologies, we partnered with Singapore University of Technology & Design to research and develop advanced AIenabled application platforms in air, land and maritime use cases. At their newly launched Future Communications Connectivity Lab, our 5G engineering teams will deep dive into a research project to provide a reliable and undisrupted connectivity solution for the operations of autonomous tugs and remote pilotage in coastal waters. Our core competencies in operational technology and IoT cybersecurity help governments and enterprises strengthen cross-domain security and protect critical system data... Cybersecurity. We also expanded our enterprise, defence and public security customer base locally and internationally. One of the year’s highlights was the deployment of the largest Nutanix secured hybrid cloud infrastructure in Southeast Asia. Delving into the future of mobility and healthcare, we partnered with Amazon Web Services to help our customers accelerate digital transformation with cloud as a key enabler. We continued to build up our core competencies in operational technology and IoT cybersecurity to help governments and enterprises strengthen cross-domain security and protect critical system data from new and complex vulnerabilities. Our Cybersecurity products, comprising IP encryptors, encrypted data storage and data diodes, have been sold in more than 16 countries, with NetCrypt Mini encryptors being used by more than 16,000 remote workers to gain secured access to their organisations’ networks. We also launched Wiz-Knight, a similar device targeted for the international market. We infused AI technologies into our Emergency Response System for multi-language transcribing, enabling it to understand local accents. Emergency calls can now be transcribed in real time, the enhanced system will further reduce the time taken by the first responder to dispatch the necessary emergency services and resources. Our training and simulation solutions gained international reputation as the MAK One suite of modeling and simulation solutions was selected to provide the common simulation software system for the Australian Army’s Lands Systems Core 2.0 Program and to support Pakistan Air Force’s large-scale synthetic battlefield training. We continued to make inroads in our Unmanned Systems business, by adapting our Unmanned Surface Vessel (USV) technology to specific use cases which are risky, routine and manpower intensive. Following trials since 2019, we secured our first contract to deploy our USV for flotsam clearance in territorial waters. We clinched two awards in the Digital Achievers Team category at the Tech Leader Awards 2022 for our Integrated Water Management System (IWMS) and Operational Medical Networks Informatics Integrator (OMNII). Organised by the Singapore Computer Society, the awards recognise individuals and teams with notable contributions in digital infrastructure, platforms and applications. We also received the CES 2022 Innovation Award by Consumer Technology Association for our NetCrypt Mini, the world’s first ultra-small IP encryptor with multifactor authentication protection. Developed for Public Utilities Board (PUB) to digitalise its water management process, the IWMS provides real-time data on the status and health of operational systems at reservoirs and plants as well as minimises water supply disruptions through real-time detection and early intervention. The OMNII is a joint project with Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF), Ministry of Health and the Defence Science and Technology Agency.
