SEOUL, South Korea—November 27, 2024—DEEP.FINE, a leading XR spatial computing platform company, has been honored with the CES 2025 Innovation Award for its XR spatial information construction solution, DEEP.FINE Spatial Crafter (DSC). The award, announced ahead of the upcoming Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2025 in Las Vegas, recognizes DSC's excellence in the XR Technologies & Accessories category.
CES, the world's largest consumer electronics exhibition, annually selects and honors top technologies and products with its Innovation Awards. DSC's recognition underscores its technological prowess and innovation in creating 3D representations of real-world spaces. DEEP.FINE plans to showcase DSC at CES 2025, aiming to introduce the solution to global enterprises and explore international market opportunities.
DSC enables users to effortlessly generate digital spaces using mobile devices, eliminating the need for expensive LiDAR equipment or specialized engineers. Within the platform, users can create and position AR content in both 2D and 3D formats. The system incorporates patented technologies, including a "3D map generation system that reduces production complexity and difficulty" and an "augmented content processing system," both registered this year.
A cornerstone of DSC is DEEP.FINE's proprietary Visual Positioning System (VPS), which facilitates precise augmented reality experiences. Unlike GPS, which is limited in environments with restricted satellite signals, VPS determines user positions through imagery, ensuring reliable operation in complex indoor settings such as exhibition halls, museums, and shopping malls. The platform's cloud-based infrastructure allows multiple users to share spatial data in real-time, enhancing collaborative efficiency.
DEEP.FINE has applied DSC in various projects, including the "AR-based Indoor Positioning Navigation Pilot Operation" conducted by the Seoul Metropolitan Government and the Korea Land and Geospatial Informatix Corporation (LX). This initiative involved digitizing approximately 50,000 square meters of the Gwanghwamun area. Additionally, DSC has been utilized to create AR docent features, providing augmented reality introductions to exhibits within Seoul's public libraries.
"While digital transformation is progressing across industries such as manufacturing, construction, energy, and logistics, high costs have posed challenges for small and medium-sized enterprises and public institutions," said Hyunbae Kim, CEO of DEEP.FINE. "Our technology addresses the reliance on specialized personnel in digital twin construction and reduces costs by up to 80%, lowering the barriers to digital transformation. Our continuous efforts have culminated in this CES award."
