[Shanghai, China, June 29, 2017] The Mobile World
Congress Shanghai 2017 (MWC Shanghai 2017) saw the
establishment of the Wireless X Labs' Advisory
Committee. The committee has gathered together
leaders from smart manufacturing, automobile
manufacturing, drone technology, data intelligence,
and artificial intelligence (AI). Chris Locke, founder of
Caribou Digital and the former Managing Director of
GSMA Mobile for Development was selected as the
presiding Secretary General. The committee intends to
hold member assemblies three times per year for
further discussions on strategic direction and project
cooperation.
At the start of the year, Wireless X Labs targeted
connected drones, cloud VR/AR, wireless robotics, and
connected vehicles as four research priorities. The
committee reviewed the research into these areas
during the first committee round-table, examined the
topics for 2018, and evaluated the technical and
cooperative feasibility for potential projects.
“Wireless X Labs is an open platform that will bring
together operators, technology providers, and vertical
industry partners to jointly explore future use cases for
mobile applications, drive innovation in business and
technology, and promote an open industry ecosystem,”
said William Xu, Executive Director of the Board & Chief
Strategy Marketing Officer, Huawei.
He remarked that the committee is designed to gather
unique strategic viewpoints and constructive
comments from industry leaders and formulate a
strategy to explore wireless applications and create
innovative mobile solutions. The committee aims to
accelerate the construction of an open ecosystem,
promote coordination among various players, and offer
better mobility solutions for all industries.
Wireless X Labs has looked into various potential 5G
applications during the first half of 2017. For example,
Wireless X Labs worked with automakers in testing
Tele-Operated Driving and platooning. With the help of
partners, it released a cloud-based virtual reality (VR)
prototype, conducted cellular network-based drone
remote control flying and image transmission tests,
and analyzed low-altitude coverage for drones. It also
set up a smart manufacturing interest group with
world-leading robotic manufacturers.
Wireless X Labs is also showcasing, with its partners,
a series of their latest achievements at the Shanghai
Executive Briefing Center. One of these is an AI helmet
which can replace guide dogs in helping the visually
impaired with their daily activities. Another is a
wireless automated guided vehicle (AGV) which can
transfer materials from warehouses to the specific
workstations as required, while with low-latency 5G
networks, wireless programmable logic controllers
(PLC) were also displayed. These controllers can order
robotic arms to swiftly switch between different tasks,
maximizing the efficiency of flexible manufacturing.
Finally connected drones which can perform facial
recognition and provide a security patrol for a safer
city were shown off.
Wireless X Labs is Huawei's mobile application
scenarios lab for wireless networks. It consists of
three laboratories with each dedicated to explore
people-to-people connections, applications for
vertical industries, and applications in household.
MWC Shanghai 2017 runs from June 28 to 30 in
Shanghai, China. Huawei is showcasing its products
and solutions at booth W5.E50 in the Shanghai New
International Expo Centre (SNIEC), and booth W3.A10
Innovation City. For more information, please
