With the message “Innovation to Breakthrough, Surpassing Oneself – Creativity to Reach Further, Soaring High in the Sky of the Digital Age and Green Development of Humanity,” the event aimed to drive creative and innovative development, becoming an international forum on technology and innovation. In addition to marking the 5th anniversary of the National Innovation Center (NIC), Innovate Vietnam 2024 also offered numerous exciting activities. The event focused on four timely themes: Entrepreneurs and Vietnamese youth amid the wave of artificial intelligence and semiconductors; Innovation and entrepreneurship in higher education in Vietnam; Career opportunities from new technologies; and International cooperation to develop the semiconductor workforce.
Established on October 2, 2019, the National Innovation Center (NIC) has gradually affirmed its role as the national hub for innovation. NIC operates to support and develop Vietnam’s innovation ecosystem, contributing to the growth model transformation based on science and technology. As part of the event, NIC organized a diverse exhibition space, along with workshops and discussions, creating networking opportunities for startups with major partners both domestically and internationally, such as Google, Meta, FPT, etc.
akaVerse and FPT Semiconductor Collaborate to Create a Virtual Factory Tour
At the event, the collaboration between FPT Semiconductor and akaVerse created a unique highlight, attracting the attention of numerous visitors. FPT Semiconductor, which is preparing to build a semiconductor chip manufacturing plant, teamed up with akaVerse to offer an innovative solution: a virtual tour of the factory in a virtual reality world. The remarkable aspect of this virtual tour technology using VR headsets is its ability to recreate real-world environments with high precision, giving viewers the sensation that they are physically present at the experimental facility.
Virtual reality technology is projected to be the technology of the sustainable future.
Using advanced VR technology, akaVerse has realistically recreated the factory space, allowing users to wear VR glasses and “enter” the factory, even though construction has not yet begun. Instead of viewing traditional 2D or 3D models or images, users can directly “step into” and explore every detail of the experimental facility, from modern laboratories to advanced semiconductor testing processes. This solution makes it easy for viewers to visualize and experience each detail of the future production facility, offering a vivid glimpse of the potential of semiconductor technology and modern manufacturing processes, while also demonstrating how akaVerse and FPT Semiconductor are pioneering the application of virtual reality technology in high-tech industrial fields.
The virtual factory also garnered significant attention from young people.
Vietnam Innovation Day 2024 concluded with many creative and pioneering technological innovations. FPT, with the theme “Leading Innovation with AI & Semiconductors,” showcased advanced technological solutions, with the highlight being its collaboration with akaVerse to introduce the virtual tour of the future semiconductor plant. This demonstrates the strategic vision of FPT and akaVerse in continuously innovating and applying virtual reality technology in production and training, opening up great opportunities for digital transformation and industrial development in Vietnam. The event not only allowed akaVerse to affirm its pioneering position but also fostered collaboration, innovation, and global outreach for tech companies domestically and internationally.
