Singapore Museums to deliver immersive experience with M1 5G and MEC - TeckNexus

M1 and its subsidiary, AsiaPac Technology (AsiaPac) have joined forces with Keppel Data Centres to offer 5G Standalone (SA) connectivity and edge computing solutions for the National Museum of Singapore as well as the Childrenโ€™s Museum Singapore. This collaboration will revolutionize how visitors experience these iconic places.


The National Heritage Board (NHB) is taking big strides toward bringing 5G technology to the rest of Singapore’s national museums and heritage institutions. By leveraging M1’s ultra-high bandwidth, low latency, and hyperconnectivity capabilities, museums can create exciting experiences for their visitors with interactive features that will surely add new layers of engagement to each museum experience.

By utilizing Keppel DC’s data center colocation and Multi-Access Edge Computing (MEC) infrastructure, museums can quickly acquire data from every touchpoint to create more tailored and personalized exhibits.

Museums can now offer unparalleled, customized experiences through cutting-edge technologies such as Augmented Reality (AR), Virtual Reality (VR) artworks, 3D holographic displays, and 4K ultra-high-definition remote video tours. These advances will undoubtedly increase engagement like never before.

Manjot Singh Mann, CEO of M15G is rapidly becoming the global standard for mobile communications and its possibilities are boundless. By merging edge computing with it, this technology has been equipped to support complex programs and offer high-definition audio-visual experiences on a real-time basis so that museums can upgrade their cultural attractions successfully. With the introduction of 5G technology, museums and heritage institutions have a unique opportunity to revolutionize their role in preserving history and making it more vivid for visitors. We are delighted to partner with the National Heritage Board at M1 and AsiaPac along with Keppel DC, enabling a new level of interactivity within these museums.

We’re glad to have M1 as our partner in revolutionizing the museum experience for visitors. Utilizing cutting-edge technologies such as 5G, Artificial Intelligence and edge computing, we are now able to give guests innovative and engaging ways to engage with our displays when they come into the museum. Mohamed Hardi, Director of Information Technology Division & Chief Information Officer at NHB. We are thrilled to continue innovating and provide tech-powered experiences to more people in the future. By utilizing 5G technology within Singapore’s heritage sector, not only will we be one step closer to becoming a Smart Nation, but also bring this vibrant city into the hyperconnected future.

Lufthansa Industry Solutions and Ericsson are tackling logistics bottlenecks with private 5G. At the LAX warehouse, they replaced unreliable Wi-Fi with just two private 5G radios, reducing scanning delays by 97% and eliminating paper logs. With edge computing and AI-powered inspections, their scalable solution is setting a new standard for warehouse automation and logistics connectivity.
An unsolicited offer from Perplexity to acquire Googles Chrome raises immediate questions about antitrust remedies, AI distribution, and who controls the internets primary access point. Perplexity has proposed a $34.5 billion cash acquisition of Chrome and says backers are lined up to fund the deal despite the startups significantly smaller balance sheet and an estimated $18 billion valuation in recent fundraising. The bid includes commitments to keep Chromium open source, invest an additional $3 billion in the codebase, and preserve current user defaults including leaving Google as the default search engine. The timing aligns with a U.S. Department of Justice push for structural remedies after a court found Google maintained an illegal search monopoly, with a Chrome divestiture floated as a central remedy.
South Korea’s government and its three national carriers are aligning fresh capital to speed AI and semiconductor competitiveness and to anchor a private-led innovation flywheel. SK Telecom, KT, and LG Uplus will seed a new pool exceeding 300 billion won (about $219 million) via the Korea IT Fund (KIF) to back core and foundational AI, AI transformation (AX), and commercialization in ICT. KIF, formed in 2002 by the carriers, will receive 150 billion won in new commitments, matched by at least an equal amount from external fund managers. The platforms lifespan has been extended to 2040 to sustain long-cycle bets.
A new joint solution from Rohde & Schwarz (R&S) and the Taiwan Space Agency (TASA) consolidates electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and antenna measurements into a single, production-grade test chamber, signaling a shift in how satellite payloads will be validated for Non-Terrestrial Network (NTN) and mission-critical services. By integrating both disciplines in one chamber, TASA can validate RF performance, emissions, and immunity under consistent test conditions and configurations, improving time-to-launch and de-risking interoperability with terrestrial networks. The TASA deployment combines R&S hardware, software, and engineering with a locally built Compact Antenna Test Range (CATR) reflector to achieve dual-mode EMC and antenna measurements in one chamber.
NTT DATA and Google Cloud expanded their global partnership to speed the adoption of agentic AI and cloud-native modernization across regulated and dataintensive industries. The push emphasizes sovereign cloud options using Google Distributed Cloud, with both airgapped and connected deployments to meet data residency and regulatory needs without stalling innovation. The partners plan to build industry-specific agentic AI solutions on Google Agent space and Gemini models, underpinned by secure data clean rooms and modernized data platforms. NTT DATA is standing up a dedicated Google Cloud Business Group with thousands of engineers and aims to certify 5,000 practitioners to accelerate delivery, migrations, and managed services.
