Smart parking?

Ericsson and Unikie are collaborating to trial automated factory parking with Ericsson’s 5G standalone (SA) private network. Unikie develops software for real-time autonomous operation and process management in automotive and industrial solutions, including automated factory parking and valet parking. At the test facility in Turku, Finland, vehicles are remotely controlled through an Ericsson 5G private network utilizing edge computing and Unikie’s Automated Factory Parking (AFP) solution. As a result, vehicle logistic management at the factory can be fully automated due to reliable connectivity, low latency to meet safety requirements, and the high-security standards of the 5G private network, per the partners.
