Lotte Innovate is introducing a voice recognition home network service utilizing its proprietary generative artificial intelligence (AI) technology, expanding its AI transformation (AX) applications into residential spaces. The company aims to broaden its enterprise AI business by leveraging AI technology accumulated in industrial sectors such as construction and smart farming into everyday life.
On October 7, Lotte Innovate announced the launch of its natural language-based 'AI Voice Recognition Home Network Service,' marking an expansion of AI transformation (AX) into the residential sector.
Developed in collaboration with Lotte Construction, the AI voice recognition home network service allows users to control key household devices such as lighting and heating through natural language voice commands. According to the company, it is the first smart home app in South Korea to incorporate voice-based device control technology.
This service will be integrated into the upgraded home network system 'Lotte Smart Home 2.0,' set to be implemented in phases at the upcoming Lotte Castle and Leel complexes. Users can control major facilities like lighting and HVAC systems using everyday voice commands such as 'turn on the living room lights' or 'set the air conditioner to 25 degrees,' without the need for a separate AI speaker or additional equipment.
The AI voice recognition home network service utilizes Lotte Innovate's proprietary LLM model applied within its generative AI platform, 'Aimember.' Since it is built on in-house AI technology, the service can be easily enhanced to expand the range of voice commands based on customer needs and the characteristics of residential environments.
Aimember is a generative AI platform developed by Lotte Innovate to support the application of generative AI in corporate operations. The company is expanding the use of its AI technology not only for business support but also across various industry-specific services.
Lotte Innovate is continuously expanding its AX applications by implementing generative AI in real industrial and everyday settings. In the construction sector, it has developed an AI voice translation service that recognizes construction terminology such as 'bracing' and 'tie beam,' facilitating smooth communication with foreign workers. The application range has been extended to include Daewoo Construction sites following its initial implementation at Lotte Construction.
In agriculture, the company is advancing smart farming through AI. The LLM-based AI agent provides cultivation methods and market price information for different crops, while vision AI predicts crop growth conditions, yields, and the likelihood of pest infestations.
With the introduction of the AI voice recognition home network service, Lotte Innovate has expanded its AI applications into residential spaces. The company plans to discover AI services tailored to industries and everyday life, further supporting enterprise AI initiatives across construction, agriculture, and residential sectors.
A representative from Lotte Innovate stated, 'The value of AI lies not in the technology itself but in the changes it brings to real-world applications. Based on our accumulated AI application experience from construction sites to agriculture and residential spaces, we will continue to expand AX in line with customer and industry characteristics.'
