Chamsle Tech Co., Ltd. (Vice Chairman Yoon Yong-sang) announced that it will sequentially roll out its T-LINKER service, the first in Korea to enable autonomous driving vehicle summons in underground parking lots, to 20 apartment complexes nationwide (approximately 13,000 households) starting on the 26th. The service is a system developed to allow vehicles to be summoned even in underground spaces where GPS signals do not reach, overcoming the limitations that had prevented existing autonomous driving functions from operating in real-life environments.

Although autonomous driving technology is advancing rapidly, it has been virtually impossible to summon vehicles in areas where GPS reception is unavailable, such as apartment underground parking lots. By combining video-based location recognition technology and a parking guidance system with an autonomous driving summon algorithm, Chamsle Tech has implemented a technology that enables vehicles to accurately recognize the user’s location and move automatically even underground. The technology is evaluated as the first in Korea to commercialize a patented autonomous driving parking guidance convergence underground parking lot vehicle summons platform.

Chamsle Tech’s system automatically links the autonomous driving summon function when only the existing installed parking guidance One Pass system is applied. As a result, newly built apartment complexes can establish an autonomous driving vehicle summons environment without additional facilities, which is seen as enhancing pre-sale competitiveness for construction companies and housing associations. A company representative said, “The fact that an autonomous driving vehicle environment is embedded in apartment complexes will serve as a key competitive factor in the design of future-oriented residential spaces.”

Chamsle Tech has established parking location and parking guidance systems in 410 complexes nationwide (310,000 households), and smart One Pass systems in 643 complexes (630,000 households). Based on this foundation, approximately 120,000 video and location terminals provide a technological base that can be expanded into autonomous driving convergence sensors. The company expects that, leveraging this infrastructure, the autonomous driving summon function will be used not only in apartment complexes but also in mixed-use commercial facilities and offices.

To overcome these limitations, Chamsle Tech developed proprietary “video-based location recognition” and “real-time spatial synchronization” technologies. This has enabled precise linking of the locations of vehicles and residents in underground parking lots without the need for separate high-cost equipment.

The service currently supports Tesla vehicle summons as a priority and is scheduled to be expanded into an “open platform” that can interoperate with various autonomous electric vehicle manufacturers in the future. Residents who install the dedicated “T-Linker” app can use the same summons service free of charge not only in their own apartment complex but also when visiting other complexes where the system is in place.

Chamsle Tech Vice Chairman Yoon Yong-sang said, “This commercialization is a technology optimized for the Korean-style residential environment, where underground parking lots are prevalent, and presents a new benchmark for domestic autonomous driving technology,” adding, “We will provide residents with a new autonomous driving lifestyle unlike anything they have experienced before.”

Further details regarding the introduction and implementation of the T-LINKER autonomous driving summons service can be found on the official Chamsle Tech website.
