ST Engineering Annual Report 2020

OPERATING REVIEW & OUTLOOK ELECTRONICS Internet of Things (IoT) Leveraging our expertise in info-communications, software technologies and cybersecurity as well as our strong network of partners, we helped our customers embrace predictive analytics and automate decision-making to derive the benefits of IoT. Collaborating with the Urban Redevelopment Authority of Singapore, we contributed our expertise in modelling, visualisation and sensemaking to co-develop and commercialise an Urban Planning Solution to support city planning and management. Our smart lighting solution was installed at various public housing estates and car parks in Singapore, improving energy efficiency and lighting experience for residents. We also deployed our Wireless Automatic Test System for Emergency Lights to enhance emergency preparedness and to optimise energy efficiency and maintenance for buildings. Overseas, our street light control and water advanced metering infrastructure solutions were deployed in various cities, helping to optimise consumption of utilities and maintenance. Training and Simulation Building on nearly 40 years of experience in developing cutting- edge simulation systems, we continued to push the limits of simulation technology to provide faster and more realistic training applications to elevate training performance and efficiency. In Singapore, we secured contracts to deliver a 360° virtual simulation dome and emergency vehicle driving simulators to enhance training for the Singapore Civil Defence Force. Together with SkillsFuture Singapore, we launched Skilleto, our Software-as-a-Service Training Management Platform for the Training and Adult Education sector. Elsewhere, we secured contracts to design and install a high-end driver-in-the-loop simulator display solution for automotive research and development in the U.K., and to install a VR Cave to support multi-disciplinary experiential learning needs for the University of Huddersfield. In France, we equipped the University of Corsica with a next-generation immersive room, which featured a two-sided L-shaped Cave Automatic Virtual Environment to support modelling and simulation research projects for space operations. Together with partners CM Labs and KRS Solutions, we delivered six Vortex Edge Max simulators for German construction, education and training specialist, Bau Bildung Sachsen. The latest release of MAK ONE, our whole-world synthetic environment simulation platform, also incorporated updates and performance improvements, enabling our customers to provide faster and more realistic training applications. Cybersecurity As a leader in offering trusted, indigenous and future-ready cybersecurity solutions, we have established a full suite of capabilities that encompasses the entire cybersecurity landscape. The COVID-19 pandemic brought new cybersecurity issues and challenges to the fore. Our teams were actively engaged in setting up security operations centres, and providing enhanced security monitoring services and support to help government agencies, critical infrastructure owners and large organisations build their cybersecurity posture and enhance their cyber resilience. At the same time, we continued to enhance and future-proof our cybersecurity products and Next-generation immersive room, featuring a two-sided L-shaped Cave Automatic Virtual Environment to support modelling and simulation research projects for the University of Corsica, France / ST ENG I NEER I NG 46
