SLT-MOBITEL, Sri Lanka's leading telco provider, plans to continuously expand 5G trials in the country by partnering with Pristine Innovations, a leading IT and ERP solution provider, to strengthen the 5G application ecosystem. This collaboration intends to develop a platform that will enable the creation of low-latency 5G applications in Sri Lanka.
SLT-MOBITEL and Pristine Innovations plan to create a networking platform for ecosystem partners to learn about 5G technology and its capabilities. It also encourages co-innovation by promoting the use of 5G technology, thereby driving the development of a thriving 5G application ecosystem. This program is expected to boost local companies while also contributing to the nation's overall progress.
In a groundbreaking project, SLT-MOBITEL and Pristine Innovations have successfully demonstrated the potential of 5G technology combined with cutting-edge technologies such as NB-IoT (Narrowband Internet of Things) and artificial intelligence. Internally, they created a 5G-based Remote-Controlled Racing Car and a 5G-based FPV (First-Person View) Racing Drone. The communication required for these devices' control and video streaming was made possible by SLT-MOBITEL's cutting-edge 5G trial network.
SLT-MOBITEL is well-known for establishing a thriving ecosystem of partners and start-ups, thereby accelerating the adoption of next-generation technologies and empowering digital lifestyles. The company recognizes the value of 5G and AI as essential technologies that can contribute to a new world and new lifestyles.
By initiating co-innovation with enterprises and system integrators, SLT-MOBITEL intends to create new solutions and experiences for enterprises, enabling consumers to unlock the full benefits of 5G technology. This collaborative effort also facilitates the development of an infinite number of industrial applications, which may accelerate the digitization of Sri Lankan industries.
SLT-MOBITEL prides itself on being the first in South Asia to trial 5G technology in 2018, and the firm has been at the forefront of the 5G revolution in Sri Lanka ever since. SLT-MOBITEL wants to create a powerful, futuristic mobile experience for clients by expanding its 5G pre-commercial trial network across major cities in the country, allowing them to easily explore the potential presented by 5G technology.
