With an eye on safe tech solutions
Specialising in video and data analytics, Zweec Analytics has deployed its technology in various settings across the island.
ZWEEC Analytics may have progressed from tracking fish in a tank to tracking swimmers in a pool, but its fundamental purpose of ensuring safety has not changed. Specialising in video and data analytics, the company has deployed its technology in various settings across the island.
"It started with a need," says chief executive officer and co-founder Liaw Kok Eng. The Public Utilities Board (PUB) had to manually observe fish mortality to monitor water quality. Manual observations are trying, and enable action only after mortality. To many utility owners, that is too little too late, Mr Liaw said. "When threat increases, they need to know what's going on. The conventional measuring method is not going to do anything."
Wanting to automate the system, PUB approached the Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*Star) in 2004.
