The 2019 Tencent Global Digital Ecosystem
Summit kicked off on May 21, 2019 at Kunming Dianchi International Convention
and Exhibition Center, Yunnan province, China. During the intelligent
construction forum, a part of the summit, Hitachi Elevator (China) Co., Ltd.
president Jia Yuhui delivered a speech entitled "Hitachi, with100-year
history, partners with Tencent Welink to promote development of the smart
building sector". Following the speech, he engaged in in-depth exchanges
with the attendees on the subject.
In terms of digitalized construction of
cities, smart buildings have become an inevitable trend in the construction
industry whereby new technologies, including the Internet of Things (IoT),
cloud computing, energy management and integrated building information modeling
(BIM). These have been increasingly used to make buildings intelligent. It is
achieved by enabling an interconnection between smart building management and
service information, as well as data sharing, network convergence and
functional synergies. Knowing that elevators are closely connected to public
transportation and also as an integral part of smart buildings, Hitachi has
been committed to provide customers "pressure-free mobility"
transportation solutions.
Mr. Jia explained, "Elevators, a
product with 'inherent traffic', need to be intelligent so that they can meet
the huge traffic demand by enabling an effective split flow of buildings and
enhancing the building's operating efficiency."
Meanwhile, elevators also serve as the
entrance to various facilities.. As a result, creating an ecosystem around
elevators is expected to offer great potential and value. While connecting to
other systems installed within buildings, including, access control and gate
systems, cameras as well as delivery and security robots, elevators can enhance
the intelligence and convenience of afacilities. In addition, elevators are
leading the transformation of the smart community and retail scenarios into
independent self-functioning e-commerce entities in their own right.
Thedevelopment of smart buildings is
driving the digital transformation of elevator manufacturers, including
innovation in elevator products and intelligent interconnection between
elevators and other systems within buildings. Hitachi plans to engage in
in-depth collaborations with Tencent to jointly develop and create IoT
solutions for smart cities and buildings. Along with a number of Chinese firms,
Hitachi attended the summit with the goal of sharing its best practices in
operations with partners from a variety of sectors and engaging in discussions
with them on various models for collaboration,.i Furthermore, displaying
solutions and products specially tailored for urban environments are also
goals..
Hitachi is evolving from a traditional
manufacturer to a digital company via the building of an AIoT (AI + IoT)
business by leveraging a century of experience in manufacturing in combination
with the latest technologies, with a focus on artificial intelligence (AI) and
IoT, creating new value for society.
Currently, Hitachi, in cooperation with
Tencent, is supplying "pressure-free move" transportation solutions
to Shanghai-based Lingang Group's Hero land project located in China-Israel
(Shanghai) Innovation Park in Taopu, a town in the northwest section of Putuo
district, Shanghai. By integrating Hitachi's smart elevator systems into
Tencent Welink's intelligent visualization platform, the solutions offer a
closely-knit interconnection between the elevators and other systems within
buildings and digitalization of construction space, helping to create
