The national exhibition of IT successes-2024 took place at the gymnasium of Kim Il Sung University between September 18 and 25.

On display at the exhibition were over 1 500 pieces of achievements and products in the fields of informatization and information industry and technology, which were presented by more than 480 units in different parts of the country, including ministries and national agencies.

“During the exhibition, achievements and experiences of advanced units were introduced through AI program, programming and computer virus vaccine program contests and a presentation, while exchanges were made among the units to apply advanced technologies,” said Kim Il Gyong, head of the informatization department of the Ministry of IT Industry.

Among the favoured products at the exhibition were an irrigation waterway current meter for smart phone and “Hwallyokso (tonic)” 1.0, a program for diagnosing nitrogen nutrition in crops, presented by the agricultural informatization institute under the Academy of Agricultural Science.

Experts were especially interested in the agricultural sci-tech service program, which offers crop growth prediction, agricultural sci-tech data, real-time Q&A service and farming material information to promptly and accurately disseminate sci-tech knowledge in the agricultural sector and solve sci-tech problems on the spot in time irrespective of time and place by using the mobile communication network.

According to researcher Ri Su Yong of the institute, the introduction of the products enabled agricultural production units to fully grasp their farming situation and command all farming processes. She added that they would develop and introduce more information systems conducive to agricultural production in the future to promote the development of agricultural science and technology.

A crowd-puller at the exhibition was the venue of a robot contest where robots made by primary school pupils flaunted their “skills”.

Visitors were surprised to see robots performing different kinds of tasks, including a robot finding out targets in an image recognition mode and running in a line-following mode.

The educational technology diffusing robot “Honsin (devotion)” and teacher supporting robot “Tojon (challenge)” presented by Pyongyang Teachers Training College were popular among the university students with an inquiring mind and enterprising spirit. “Tojon” helps teachers with lectures and individual study guidance for students, supplies answers to students’ questions and assists students to improve their cognitive, application and creative abilities through extracurricular study.

Other eye-catchers included many IT products like the machine monitoring and troubleshooting system “Jinungjindan (intelligent diagnosis)” 2.4 developed by the intellectual development institute under Kim Il Sung University.

Such units as Kim Il Sung University, Kim Chaek University of Technology and Chollima Tile Factory were put on the list of the top ten model units in informatization in 2024 and such units as the Pyongyang Kwangmyong IT Company, Puksae Electronics Trading Company and Achim Computer Joint Venture Company on the list of the top ten IT enterprises in 2024. And the products that are making tangible contributions to informatizing the national economy and improving the people’s living standards were registered as the top ten IT products in 2024.
