Naver Cloud is partnering with HD Korea Shipbuilding to establish an artificial intelligence (AI) and cloud infrastructure tailored for the shipbuilding industry. This initiative aims to support the protection of national core technologies, manage large-scale design data, and facilitate an AI-driven production system, marking a significant step in the industry's AI transformation (AX).
Naver Cloud announced on July 20 that it will create an optimized AI and cloud environment for the shipbuilding sector and promote AX across the industry.
The shipbuilding industry must securely protect national core technologies while managing extensive design data and implementing production innovations through AI. Consequently, the importance of building an AI and cloud infrastructure suited to the industry's characteristics is increasing.
Through this collaboration, the two companies plan to start with the establishment of an industry-specific cloud and expand AI utilization to next-generation ship platforms and shipyard operations. They aim to jointly discover and validate AI application models tailored for the shipbuilding industry and develop them into AI innovation cases that can be applied across the manufacturing sector.
Initially, they will optimize the graphics processing unit (GPU) infrastructure for AI factory implementation and establish a private cloud operating environment. Based on this, they will jointly develop next-generation ship platforms and promote AI transformation and collaboration on Physical AI technologies in shipyards.
Additionally, they will co-design a platform based on ship data and a real-time data processing and control system, utilizing AI vision technology and robotic operating platforms to discover and validate AI application models suitable for the shipbuilding industry.
Kim Yoo-won, CEO of Naver Cloud, stated, "As the shipbuilding industry is undergoing a significant shift towards global AI transformation, establishing an AI foundation optimized for the industry is crucial. Together with HD Korea Shipbuilding, we will create a cloud environment specialized for the shipbuilding sector and develop AI innovation models that can be expanded to other manufacturing industries."
