Photo courtesy of LG Electronics<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-[var(--color-text)] leading-relaxed\">LG Electronics (066570.KS) has built a research lab that closely replicates an actual home to secure high-quality data needed for research and development in the home appliance sector.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-[var(--color-text)] leading-relaxed\">LG Electronics said Monday that it recently remodeled &#8220;ThinQ Real&#8221; at LG Science Park in Magok, Gangseo-gu, Seoul. ThinQ Real is a 100-square-meter space dedicated to collecting and analyzing lifestyle data, such as usage patterns, needed for developing and enhancing artificial intelligence (AI) home appliances and Internet of Things (IoT) products.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-[var(--color-text)] leading-relaxed\">Since its launch in 2022, ThinQ Real had been operated as two separate spaces targeting one- to two-person households and three- to four-person households, respectively. LG Electronics has now merged them into a single space resembling a 30-pyeong home, commonly referred to as the &#8220;national standard size&#8221; in Korea. The move is aimed at focusing on four-person household customers, who represent the largest source of home appliance demand. The lab faithfully replicates the spaces found in a 30-pyeong home, from the entrance to the living room, kitchen, bedroom, bathroom and dressing room.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-[var(--color-text)] leading-relaxed\">ThinQ Real collects data and tests and validates automation scenarios by linking with LG Electronics&#8217; AI home hub &#8220;ThinQ On,&#8221; dozens of AI home appliances, and IoT devices. The company plans to pursue synergies across business divisions by leveraging the roughly 10,000 LG Electronics R&amp;D personnel based at LG Science Park. LG Electronics also plans to use the space as a showroom to introduce its solutions to various business-to-business (B2B) customers, including construction firms, interior design companies and mobile carriers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-[var(--color-text)] leading-relaxed\">&#8220;Based on the diverse data accumulated at ThinQ Real, we will deliver a more convenient daily life to our customers,&#8221; said Jeong Ki-hyun, senior vice president of the Home Appliance Solution (HS) Platform Business Center at LG Electronics.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"LG Electronics employees conduct research at &#8220;ThinQ Real,&#8221; an AI Home data research space inside LG Science Park&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":5771,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[621],"tags":[3002,4738,4735,315,357,4736,4739,4737,4734],"class_list":["post-5770","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-lg-electronics","tag-ai-home-appliances","tag-home-appliance-rd","tag-iot","tag-lg","tag-lg-electronics","tag-lg-science-park","tag-smart-home","tag-thinq-on","tag-thinq-real"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5770","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5770"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5770\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5771"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5770"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5770"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5770"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
