Smart TECO! Smart Life!
 
TECO Group Showcases Cloud System Services at the Smart City Expo
 
Ranked among the global top three in the large-motor market, TECO Group brought together several affiliated companies to exhibit at the Smart City Expo held February 21–24 at the Taipei Nangang Exhibition Center, highlighting its cloud-related products and system services developed in recent years. The showcase spanned logistics management, unmanned retail, cloud-enabled video doorbells, smart microgrids, cloud mechatronic health management systems, and energy management systems (EMS)—all designed to create convenient and secure smart-living spaces for modern life.
 
At TECO Group’s booth (J812), the exhibit was organized into three thematic zones: Smart Retail, Smart Logistics, and Smart Energy Saving.
 
Smart Retail featured unmanned stores and self-service ordering kiosks produced by TECO Group subsidiary TECO Jiede Technology Co., Ltd. (東元捷德科技). A crowd-pleasing highlight was the soon-to-launch “Health Kiosk.” Test users simply place both hands on the sensing pad and, within 30 seconds, receive multiple biometric indicators—blood pressure, respiration rate, heart rate, “heart age,” energy index, and more—accompanied by graphical data analytics. This enables fast, convenient health management—literally at your fingertips, anytime. TECO Jiede plans to collaborate with chain supermarkets to integrate these services into daily retail scenarios and cultivate new cloud-based business opportunities.
 
TECO Group affiliate Dongjie Information Services (東捷資訊服務) presented a Logistics Cloud Dispatch Center System that integrates three core functions: dispatch center control, cold-chain monitoring, and a performance dashboard. Logistics operators can use the cloud to monitor stations and in-transit delivery vehicles, track real-time parcel status, roll-cage temperatures, offer driver care and view driving trajectories, and review comprehensive performance metrics—bringing monitoring, dispatch, and decision-making together under one roof.
 
In TECO Electric & Machinery’s core Mechatronics domain, the company actively demonstrated multiple IoT application systems, including MHM (Mechatronic Health Management) and EMS (Energy Management System), with a strong emphasis on energy efficiency. The Smart Microgrid links EMS, BMS (Battery Management System), and ESS (Grid-tied Energy Storage System), coordinating with wind and solar generation to manage energy storage and release. By peak-shaving and valley-filling, it achieves optimal, economical power usage. Smart microgrids can also be deployed for disaster relief or in remote/island regions; in the event of a major emergency, they can function as independent power sources and emergency backup supply to maximize effectiveness.
 
TECO’s Home Appliances division—coming off a strong year—also took part, unveiling the “Energy-Saving Smart Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) Monitoring Service.” After installing sensors and connecting to the cloud, if CO₂ exceeds the threshold, the system automatically starts a total heat exchanger to discharge CO₂. As occupancy changes, HVAC airflow is automatically adjusted to save energy. Temperature, humidity, and PM2.5 are likewise managed via cloud control to maintain optimal indoor air quality.
 
Leveraging its technological strengths and the Internet of Things, TECO Group continues to develop cloud technologies to build a smart-living ecosystem, injecting intelligent momentum into a traditional industry rooted in motors.
