Taiwan Innotech Expo (TIE) Showcases Strong Ecosystems in the Post-Pandemic World, Deploying Ahead in Four Areas to Embrace the Smart Future

TAIPEI, Sept. 7, 2020 — Over 1,000 innovative technologies will lead Taiwan into a smart future. The annual Taiwan Innotech Expo, which brings together industry, government and academia, will be launched at Taipei World Trade Center Hall 1 on September 24, 2020. The Expo exhibitions will revolve around "Resilient Taiwan for a Smart Future" under the themes of "Future Tech", "Innovation Pilot" and "Sustainability". By creating a diversified trading platform, combining local innovation dynamics and regional advantages, and connecting ASEAN countries with Europe, the US, and Japan, Taiwan will become a global IP hub for technology R&D and trading to spread its innovation around the world and promote its "smart value."

The Taiwan Innotech Expo 2019 attracted a large number of domestic and foreign visitors.
The Taiwan Innotech Expo 2019 attracted a large number of domestic and foreign visitors.

Embrace the era of innovation and intelligence with the help of big data

This year, the "Innovation Pilot" theme will demonstrate more than 100 innovative technologies and visualize the transition to the hyper digitization era. This theme consists of four topics: Hyper Automation, IoT, Multi Experience, and New Health. Each of the topics will be presented in different highlights such as the Defense Tech, the Disaster Management Solutions, Future Mobility, and Epidemic Prevention Tech.

Driving the Future of Smart Manufacturing with Hyper Automation

Industry 4.0 is a popular research topic in modern manufacturing industries. From new forms of manufacturing to the transformation of traditional manufacturing, the hyper automation section will look into advanced technologies that combine machine computing and AI techniques as well as future autonomous machines. The aim is to upgrade traditional industries with innovative technologies.

  • Highlights: AIWin’s Fabric AI-AOI
    AIWin has developed an AI-driven AOI system for the Taiwanese textile industry to help customers develop application solutions that can address their pain points. By combining AI software and deep learning technology, the system can achieve an optical resolution of 0.014 mm/pixels, a detection rate of more than 95%, and a speed of 25 meters/minute. It can identify all kinds of defects automatically. Unlike other AI technologies that require massive amounts of data, this system enables users to build AI models quickly to reduce human fatigue.
  • Highlights: Explosion-proof Robots
    Explosion-proof robots designed for bomb disposal experts are disruptor devices and Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) robots for homemade bombs. The liquid disruptor device uses a small amount of explosives which gather the energy of water to fire a high-pressure jet of water to destroy the shells of the bombs or the firing chain, thus reducing the damage of explosion. A specially designed robotic arm which can track the operator’s movements is then used. The operator can move the gripper to a desired location easily through an intuitive control panel to remove bombs precisely or dismantle them with a liquid disruptor device.

Create New Business Opportunities by Connecting Digital Services with IoT

This is especially true in the world of IoT, which employs artificial neural networks to create extensively comprehensive communications and relationships between humans and devices. In the areas of digital governance, digital payment/Fintech, 5G, AI, IoT, and big data in the cloud, edge computing, fog computing, and cloud computing technologies have converted our life into digital data consisting of 1 and 0.

  • Highlights: 5G NR cells and core technology
    Driven by the rapid growth of 5G networks, Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI) and Institute for Information Industry (III) have developed a virtualized 5G-NR small cell composed of radio components, physical layers, L2/L3 software, and 5G core software. Compliant with the 3GPP 5G R15 standards, the system leverages the O-RAN architecture. These two organizations also work with Taiwanese server and network communications vendors to boost the global presence of the system. By controlling network virtualization technology and seizing the business opportunities of O-RAN ahead of, Taiwan can reduce reliance on foreign vendors’ technology while becoming a global export hub of 5G equipment.

Building Smart Life with Seamless Transition between Physical and Virtual Worlds

Virtual and real worlds are merging due to the rise of VR/AR applications. The rapid development of imaging and motion sensing technology allows us to gain more VR/AR experiences in smart applications including traffic, environments, homes, wearable devices, and education.

  • Highlights: Cycle Boxer
    Cycle Boxer is the world’s first fitness equipment combining cycling and boxing to improve physical and mental health as well as brain functions. The scientific and interactive punch pad can train brain reaction while enhancing memory, response abilities, and collaboration between the eye and hand. Punch signals are displayed in different colors and patterns and music is played during exercise to provide immersive experience.

Deploying Ahead with New Healthcare Technology

The comprehensive healthcare concept driven by the progress of pharmaceutical and biomedical technologies covers every aspect of life, from food to clothing, shelter, and transportation, as well as problems related to aging, illness, and death. Technology, services, and networks have been adopted to help people manage their health.

  • Highlights: Disposable Medical Coveralls
    To respond to COVID-19, Taiwan has produced state-of-the-art medical coveralls in addition to face masks. The coveralls manufactured by Makalot Industrial for front-line medical staff have passed multiple P3-level tests including sewn seam strength, tearing strength, moisture permeability, hydrostatic pressure, penetration of synthetic blood, and viral penetration. These coveralls are completely made in Taiwan, from materials to the final products.

ESCP study reveals: New Digital Risers challenge incumbents

France top Digital Riser, China gains significantly, USA loses

BERLIN, Sept. 7, 2020 — Digital incumbents increasingly face new and dynamic competitors from around the world. While countries such as USA, Sweden and Singapore are often perceived as digital champions, a new study indicates that they are not necessarily dynamic Digital Risers. Only Singapore has managed to improve its relative position slightly over the last three years. In contrast, the USA and Sweden have actually lost ground over the same period. "We are in the middle of a digital revolution that is very likely being accelerated by the Covid-19 pandemic," says Professor Philip Meissner of the European Center for Digital Competitiveness by ESCP Business School Berlin campus.

ESCP Graph 1: Digital Riser Ranking: Group of 7 (G7)
ESCP Graph 1: Digital Riser Ranking: Group of 7 (G7)

Within the G7, France was able to advance most in its relative digital competitiveness between 2017 and 2019, which makes the country the top "Digital Riser" in this group; conversely, Italy and Germany decreased most within the G7. This is the result of the Digital Riser Report 2020, devised by the European Center for Digital Competitiveness by ESCP Business School in Berlin. The report analyses and ranks the changes that countries around the globe have seen in their digital competitiveness over the last three years based on data from the Global Competitiveness Report issued by the World Economic Forum (WEF).

The ranking also reveals clear dynamics regarding the two global digital superpowers. It shows that China has gained significantly in digital competitiveness, while the USA has lost out over the same time period.  

The top Digital Risers all had one thing in common: they have followed comprehensive, swiftly implemented plans along a long-term vision around digitisation and entrepreneurship. France’s example shows that governments that invest heavily in start-ups and employ lighthouse projects such as La French Tech can greatly increase their country’s digital competitiveness in a short timeframe.

Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation Responses to Media on the U.S. Government’s Consideration to Add the Company to a Trade Blacklist

SHANGHAI, Sept. 5, 2020 — Reuters reported Friday, September 4 (EST), citing a Defense Department official that the Trump administration is considering whether to add China’s top chipmaker SMIC to a trade blacklist.

SMIC solemnly declares that the Company, a public company listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and the Sci-Tech Innovation Board (STAR Market), is an international semiconductor foundry strictly complying with the laws and regulations of all jurisdictions where it performs its businesses.  Since its inception, the Company has been fully compliant with all rules and laws. SMIC has maintained long-term strategic partnerships with multiple U.S.-based semiconductor equipment suppliers.  Over the years, the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) has granted numerous export licenses for the Company.  With a large and diverse customer base, serving companies in the U.S., Europe, and other Asian regions, SMIC plays an important role in the global semiconductor supply chain.  The Company manufactures semiconductors and provides services solely for civilian and commercial end-users and end-uses.  We have no relationship with the Chinese military.  In and before 2016, SMIC had been granted Validated End-User (VEU) authorization by the BIS and the company hosted several visits from U.S. Government officials.  Any assumptions of the Company’s ties with the Chinese military are untrue statements and false accusations.  The Company is in complete shock and perplexity to the news.  Nevertheless, SMIC is open to sincere and transparent communication with the U.S. Government agencies in hope of resolving potential misunderstandings.
