GS E&C announced on the 6th that it has signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with LG Electronics’ HS Robotics Lab to build a “future-oriented residential robot service model.” The plan is to implement future-style residential services by integrating LG Electronics’ AI home robot technology into Xi apartments.

The two companies plan to derive optimal scenarios for providing robot services within residential spaces and to establish “robot-friendly design standards,” including securing robot travel routes, linking dedicated elevators, and building charging infrastructure, which will be reflected from the apartment design stage.

The core of this collaboration is LG Electronics’ AI home robot “CLOiD.” Based on its active assistant function linked with home appliances, CLOiD provides customized lifestyle services within each household. In addition, serving and delivery robots utilizing the autonomous driving technology of Bear Robotics, an LG Electronics subsidiary, will support the use of community facilities within the complex and the movement of goods between units.

GS E&C will first apply the AI- and robot-based residential model to District 1 of the Seongsu Strategic Maintenance Zone and then consider expanding it to major urban redevelopment projects such as Yeouido.

A GS E&C official said, “This collaboration goes beyond simple technology adoption to propose a new lifestyle in which AI robots actually live together in residential spaces,” adding, “By combining Xi’s spatial design capabilities with LG Electronics’ robotics technology, we will lead residential trends.”
