Connecting People and Society through R&D

i-enter creates new value for lives and society through technology. Our focus is on research and development. With AI technology, we improve efficiency and address social challenges. Now, we are building a foundation for broader solutions with quantum computers.

Research Areas

Here are our main research areas we are currently working on.

AI Development

We focus on AI research with deep learning-based image recognition and have delivered practical solutions for quality inspection, anomaly detection, pose estimation, and facial recognition in manufacturing and sports fields.
More recently, we have developed generative AI services, such as “AI RECOMEN” and “AI Concierge,” for improved operational efficiency and user experience.

Quantum Computers

We are researching quantum computing technology for complex optimization and precise simulations, which are difficult for AI. Now, we study solution-layer application development using quantum cloud and open-source tools.
Going forward, we aim to create quantum solutions for social issues through PoC, university collaboration, and integration with AI.

Our Patented Technology

Fish Size Estimation Device
(Patent No. 6694039)

Patent granted in April 2020

This patent uses deep learning and stereo cameras to measure swimming fish without contact. It calculates length and height from underwater position data, reducing errors and stress compared to manual methods.

Pose Estimation Learning System
(Patent No. 6868875)

Patent granted in April 2021

This patent is for a system that uses virtual space to build pose estimation models. Previously, manual data creation took time and cost. Now, 360-degree motion is auto-captured with 3D models, and skeletal data is collected at once, speeding up AI development.

From Research to Practice

Our R&D technologies are used in real projects, helping solve social issues and improve operations.
Here are some achievement examples from our research.

i-enter Sports-Tech Lab

We use AI, IoT, and XR to address sports industry challenges. In curling, our systems analyze form with pose estimation, measure sweeping strength, and visualize stone paths. These research-based tools enhance athletic performance with IT.
