At MTX 2026, we speak with Low Jin Phang, Chief Operating Officer for Public Safety & Security and President of Digital Systems at ST Engineering, about how AI, robotics, and space technology are reshaping public safety and security operations.
They explore ST Engineering’s return to MTX 2026 and its deepening collaboration with HTX, highlighting how AI and quantum technologies are transforming public safety operations. Lo explains the expansion into space technology through the design, manufacturing, and operation of satellites with hyperspectral payloads to provide geospatial imagery for public safety applications.
The conversation introduces MUMTOS (Manned–Unmanned Teaming Operating Systems), a platform that integrates with command-and-control systems so humans remain the decision-makers while unmanned robots take on the physical and higher-risk tasks. Lo also details the deployment of unmanned surface vessels operating autonomously alongside the Coast Guard in the busy Straits of Singapore, enhancing maritime surveillance and enforcement while keeping personnel out of harm’s way.
This interview showcases how Earth observation, autonomous maritime systems, and advanced analytics are being operationalized to deliver safer, smarter public safety and security outcomes.
