SurePoint Wins Minister of Employment and Labor Award at 'AI·Smart Industrial Safety Technology Best Practices Challenge'

Surepoint

SurePoint, a company specializing in AI industrial safety solutions, announced that it has received the Minister of Employment and Labor Award at the recently held '2026 AI·Smart Industrial Safety Technology Best Practices Challenge.' The company was recognized for the excellence and field applicability of its AI safety management technology for worker protection and accident prevention.

This award is the result of a comprehensive evaluation of not only the innovation of AI technology, but also its practical utility at industrial sites, its effectiveness in accident prevention, and the overall completeness of the technology. It is particularly meaningful as SurePoint's field-focused AI safety technology received positive external evaluation.

The award-winning product, SUREPOINT AI-S3, is an industrial safety solution that uses AI-based human detection technology to recognize both workers and obstacles in real time. When a hazardous situation is detected, it is designed to support vehicle braking, thereby helping to prevent collision accidents and secondary accidents in industrial settings. Notably, even in situations where the driver is unaware or makes an operational error, the AI can intervene to perform braking.

The AI-S3 features a log system that records both AI interventions and driver braking history. It distinguishes and logs whether the brake was activated by the AI or by the driver, as well as the timing of the braking event, and also saves video data from the moment of braking. This data can serve as objective evidence for responding to serious industrial accidents should they occur. Additionally, the ability to verify records of AI interventions in vehicle control during hazardous situations helps enhance the reliability of safety management at industrial sites.

The record-based safety management system can be used not only for analyzing the causes of accidents but also for identifying risk factors unique to each site in advance.

SurePoint continuously analyzes braking logs and video data to feed back into AI training. Through this, the company is advancing detection performance tailored to specific field environments and improving AI decision accuracy by reducing false positives and missed detections based on site-specific data. SurePoint is also working to provide safety solutions customized for a variety of industrial settings.

Additionally, SurePoint applies domestically developed AI monitors and AI safety technologies tailored to the Korean industrial environment. To address the false positive and missed detection issues raised by some foreign products, SurePoint has independently advanced its AI algorithms to reflect the working conditions and safety standards of Korean industrial sites. In doing so, the company is also contributing to enhancing the competitiveness of domestic industrial safety technologies.

The technology is expected to play a key role in lowering technical entry barriers and establishing efficient serious accident prevention systems, even at sites struggling with workforce shortages and gaps in safety management.

With this Minister of Employment and Labor Award, SurePoint plans to further strengthen the technological competitiveness of its AI-based industrial safety solutions and expand its presence in the domestic AI safety technology sector.

A SurePoint representative stated, "This award recognizes not just our technical prowess, but also the value of our AI technology in actually preventing accidents and ensuring safety at industrial sites. We will continue to develop safety solutions tailored to the field based on domestic AI technology, and grow as a company that contributes to the advancement of industrial safety technology in Korea."
