HDC Hyundai Development Company is expanding the integration of new technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, and extended reality (XR). The company is broadening its range of smart residential services, from robot services that collect garbage bags to systems that automatically detect and block fires in parking lots.

‘Seoul One I-Park’ best exemplifies HDC Hyundai Development Company’s commitment to innovation in residential spaces. The complex incorporates an AI home agent-based residential assistant, an AI security solution, and an AI building management system. The AI home agent learns residents’ lifestyle patterns and community data to provide customized services such as energy management, parking guidance, and community facility reservations. The AI security solution is integrated with CCTV and access control systems, enabling functions such as abnormal behavior detection, fire and intrusion prevention, and real-time notifications. The AI building management system automatically optimizes lighting and heating/cooling and monitors for facility anomalies.

HDC Hyundai Development Company plans to expand safe and smart residential services by introducing HDC Smart Home IoT technology and generative AI-based voice recognition wall pads in newly launched complexes such as Seoul One I-Park. Provided by HDC Hyundai Development Company

The ‘HDC AI Voice Recognition Wall Pad’ is also being implemented. This wall pad can engage in natural and sophisticated conversations, even with complex questions. It utilizes generative AI-based voice recognition technology to analyze text on a proprietary cloud-based device. The system distinguishes between speakers and provides home services based on usage patterns. It also supports home care services by analyzing spoken keywords.

HDC Hyundai Development Company is introducing mobility technology-based solutions within I-Park complexes. A representative example is the ‘Helper Robot Service’ to be introduced at Gocheok I-Park. This robot connects the MD residential building with the I-Park Mall commercial area, delivering food, beverages, and goods ordered by residents directly to their doorsteps. Developed in collaboration between HDC Labs, HDC Group’s spatial AIoT specialist, and a robotics company, this robot has already undergone pilot operation in the complex.

This robot will also provide a service that collects pay-as-you-throw garbage bags from residents’ doorsteps and disposes of them on their behalf-the first such service in a domestic multi-family housing complex. When a resident calls the robot to their door and places a pay-as-you-throw garbage bag in its cargo compartment, the robot transports it to the collection point and automatically disposes of it. Any resident of the MD building at Gocheok I-Park who uses the I-Park Home application can use the service.

HDC Hyundai Development Company conducted preliminary tests for robot delivery and garbage collection robot pilot services within the Gocheok I-Park complex. Based on the results of this pilot service operation, they plan to continuously promote various robot services to provide residential convenience to I-Park residents.

Starting with Seoul One I-Park, HDC Hyundai Development Company is also applying an electric vehicle fire detection assistance system as a standard feature in underground parking lots. By installing intelligent AI CCTVs and thermal imaging cameras, the system can detect electric vehicle fires in advance and respond quickly. Thermal imaging cameras are placed at parking spots equipped with rapid electric vehicle chargers to continuously monitor whether battery temperatures rise above a certain threshold. Intelligent AI CCTVs with 360-degree monitoring capability detect smoke and flames in real time and relay this information to the complex management office and vehicle owners. If an electric vehicle is charging, the system automatically stops charging. The parking guidance lights turn red, and emergency alerts are broadcast through speakers built into the emergency bell receivers to help residents evacuate.

An HDC Hyundai Development Company official stated, “We will continue to develop AI technology to advance smart residential services, ensuring that I-Park residents can enjoy a safe and convenient lifestyle. We plan to expand various cloud-based services and further strengthen lifestyle-focused services that utilize parking spaces, vehicles, and robots in underground parking lots.”
