Published

on

HSINCHU, Nov. 26, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — ASPEED Technology, a leader in 360-degree immersive imaging solutions, and its subsidiary Cupola360 Inc., have collaborated with Foxconn Industrial Internet (Fii), a subsidiary of Hon Hai Technology Group (Foxconn), to successfully implement the Cupola360 smart patrol solution at its Bac Giang facility in Vietnam. This facility recently earned the prestigious designation of “Lighthouse Factory” from the World Economic Forum (WEF), making it the first facility in Vietnam to achieve this recognition.  

Building on ASPEED Technology’s 2023 success in developing the world’s first AI server Lighthouse Factory at the NanChing facility in Taoyuan, the achievement at Bac Giang underscores the transformative impact of Cupola360’s panoramic remote management technology in driving smart manufacturing advancements.

The Cupola360 smart patrol solution leverages ASPEED’s proprietary panoramic stitching technology to provide seamless 720-degree real-time monitoring for the Bac Giang facility. Through its immersive visual management system, the operations team can perform remote patrol, anomaly detection, and virtual tours without the need for on-site visits. By integrating third-party AI analytics, the system can identify irregularities in real-time and automatically notify managers for swift resolution. This innovative approach not only reduces reliance on traditional SCADA systems but also minimizes travel-related carbon emissions, supporting corporate ESG goals for sustainability.  

Vietnam, as a developing country, is free from the burden of legacy equipment often seen in advanced economies. Newly built factories can directly adopt state-of-the-art technologies, rapidly enhancing their competitive edge,” said CJ Hsieh, COO of ASPEED Technology. “Our latest panoramic visual technology significantly lowers the AI computing power required by traditional cameras. Furthermore, it aligns with the sovereign AI trend, granting businesses the flexibility to independently develop and upgrade their AI systems. Without relying on conventional camera providers, companies can accelerate innovation and achieve faster progress. By implementing the sovereign AI-powered Cupola360 solution into the Bac Giang facility, we have demonstrated the immense potential of panoramic visual management while setting new benchmarks for remote AI management in the manufacturing sector.”  

The Bac Giang facility has achieved remarkable improvements in production efficiency through the large-scale application of AI and automation. According to WEF’s evaluation, labor productivity increased by 190%, on-time delivery rates reached 99.5%, and manufacturing costs were reduced by 45%. These results underscore the ability of digital management to drive sustainable development and serve as a valuable reference for other global production facilities.  

The Head of Development Strategy at the Bac Giang facility, Michael Wang, shared from his practical experience: “By combining Cupola360’s panoramic technology with AI analytics, we have achieved transparent data management and intelligent remote monitoring across the facility. This enables our team to identify and resolve issues promptly, significantly enhancing decision-making efficiency and overall operational performance.”  

The WEF’s “Lighthouse Factory” designation represents the pinnacle of global standards in smart manufacturing and digital operations. Companies earning this title undergo rigorous evaluations, showcasing not only innovative technological integration but also a strong commitment to sustainable practices.  

With the success of Cupola360 at the Bac Giang facility, ASPEED Technology has set a new benchmark for remote management in manufacturing. Looking ahead, ASPEED plans to continue advancing innovation through Cupola360, empowering more manufacturing partners to achieve digital transformation and ushering in a new era of high efficiency and sustainable growth.
