We are pleased to take another bold step in our journey to 5G with our 5G pilot network at one-north and invite enterprises to start shaping their digital future with us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Using the 5G pilot network, Singtel and Ericsson will conduct drone trials later this year at one-north.<\/p>\n<p>Aileen Chia, Deputy Chief Executive and Director-General (Telecoms &amp; Post) at IMDA, says: \u201cThis is an encouraging step towards commercialization with live 5G trial networks made possible with the regulatory sandbox IMDA has in place. IMDA will continue to work closely with mobile service providers such as Singtel in their journey to build communication capabilities of the future and complement Singapore\u2019s efforts towards a vibrant digital economy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The 5G pilot network was announced at Singtel\u2019s and Ericsson\u2019s Bringing 5G to Life event, held at Singtel Comcentre today. At the same event, Singtel and Ericsson demonstrated innovative 5G use cases, including cutting-edge 3D augmented reality (AR) streaming over a 5G network operating in the 28GHz millimetre wave spectrum.<\/p>\n<p>The first-of-its-kind demonstration enabled participants to view and interact with lifelike virtual objects such as a photorealistic human anatomy and a 360-degree image of the world. The immersive experience was then streamed in real-time to a remote audience via 5G.<\/p>\n<p>Performed in collaboration with leading immersive AR technology firm Meta, the demonstration illustrated the possibilities of using 3D AR technology for large-scale remote learning in various industries such as medical and education, enabled by an ultra-high-speed and low-latency 5G network.<\/p>\n<p>Martin Wiktorin, Head of Ericsson Singapore, Brunei and the Philippines, says: \u201c5G represents a key mobile technology evolution, opening up new possibilities and applications. We believe that 5G will play a key role in the digital transformation of the Singapore economy. Demonstrating the possibilities in this showcase event will be a catalyst for engagements with Singapore enterprises.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>About Bringing 5G To Life<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The event showcases the emerging technologies from partners \u2013 Garuda Robotics, Intel, Rohde &amp; Schwarz and Sony, demonstrating how enterprises and consumers can use technologies such as AR, mixed reality, connected drones, real-time HD 3D mapping as well as cloud-based gaming and robotics.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About the Centre of Excellence Programme<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Singtel and Ericsson\u2019s 5G Centre of Excellence Programme was launched in October 2017 to facilitate the development and deployment of 5G across Singapore.
