Vaida has won a 11 billion won national project led by KEIT, titled "Development of Multi-Vehicle Remote Operation and Safety Enhancement Technology Based on a Detachable Terminal." Vaida announced on the 11th that it had been selected as the lead research institution for the project. Seven organizations — Saesol Tech, Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology, Korea Automotive Technology Institute, Autobiz Systems, DH Autoware, LG Electronics, and Renault Korea — are participating as joint partners.
The project will receive KRW 9 billion in government-supported R&D funding, and the research period runs through December 2029. The participating organizations will conduct research on developing autonomous driving marshalling (Automated Vehicle Marshalling, AVM) technology applicable to mass-produced vehicles using a detachable-terminal-based approach. AVM refers to moving and aligning finished vehicles autonomously within restricted areas such as factories and ports, and transporting them to a staging area before shipment.
The technology being developed is designed to be applicable to mass-produced vehicles using detachable terminals. This contrasts with existing commercial AVM technologies, which required large-scale infrastructure investment in advance or were only applicable to vehicles equipped with FSD-level capabilities. Such economic and technical limitations have made it difficult for these existing commercial technologies to spread to mass-produced vehicles.
Vaida aims to make AVM deployable on mass-produced vehicles through a detachable-terminal mounting method that requires no separate vehicle modification, and for this purpose it is focusing development on four core technologies. The four core technologies are 1:N remote control and customized driving intervention based on detachable terminals, ultra-low-latency, high-reliability V2N communication, factory infrastructure sensor-based cooperative perception, and a zero-trust security gateway.
Vaida is laying the groundwork for global technology expansion through international cooperation with the Czech Republic, with four overseas institutions participating: the Technical University of Ostrava, Intens, SKODA, and O2 Telefonica. It also plans to establish a Korea-Czech cooperation center in the Czech Republic for global joint demonstration-based technology verification, and after verifying the technology through joint demonstrations, it plans to advance technology proposals to international standards bodies such as ISO, SAE, and UNECE.
Choi Seung-woon, an executive director at Vaida, emphasized that winning the project marks an opportunity for a domestically led company to secure technology that can apply AVM to mass-produced vehicles without separate modification. He added that the company intends to push for rapid commercialization based on technology with safety and reliability, and said it plans to expand its technology ecosystem into the global OEM market.
