A real-time demonstration in Belfast Harbour was staged to highlight the benefits 5G can deliver to business and industry - including how its cranes can be inspected and maintained remotely.
In a first for the UK, the Irish News writes, that the demonstrations, performed over BT's public 5G network, showed two 5G-enabled applications that are being explored by the harbour as part of its vision for creating a “smart port” and an iconic waterfront for the city.
One demonstration showed a member of Belfast Harbour's operations team wearing an augmented reality headset connected to a 5G device.
