Latest NewsOctober 2007ST Electronics And Institute Of Automation, Chinese Academy Of Science Singapore, 13 October 2007 — Singapore Technologies Electronics Limited (ST Electronics) today announced that its subsidiary, Singapore Technologies (Training & Simulation Systems) Pte Ltd (STEE-T&S), has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Science (CASIA) to jointly undertake Research and Development (R&D) projects over the next three years. ST Electronics is the electronics arm of Singapore Technologies Engineering Limited. Both partners will complement each others technological capabilities to jointly research and develop new technologies in Interactive Media, in particular the domains of Simulation, Animation, Games and Edutainment (SAGE). To further bring value to the partnership, these new technologies will then be jointly exploited commercially through licensing and distribution. Founded in 1956, CASIA is the first Chinese governmental research organisation in the field of automation. It focuses on three major R&D directions - complex information processing, complex systems control, and integrated systems, which are all of importance to the area of intelligence technology. STEE-T&S develops, manufactures and markets advanced computer graphic software and solutions for simulation, visualisation and various industry applications. The company is also a key player in the area of digital animation and games development. It will undertake this collaboration through its Centre of Interactive Media, an operation that is supported by the Interactive Digital Media office (IDM) of the Media Development Authority of Singapore. Supporting such a strategic initiative is in line with the IDMs efforts towards developing Singapore into a Digital Media Hub.
Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Science, is a research organisation set up by the government of China. Since its inception in 1956, its field of research has evolved from automation to intelligence technology such as complex information processing, complex systems control and integrated systems. To date, CASIA has made substantial breakthroughs in complex science, biometrics, character recognition, speech recognition, IC design, intelligent robots, and integrated automation.
