Developers from across the world demonstrate
how network APIs on 5G standalone can deliver real-world solutions
for businesses and consumers
T-Mobile (NASDAQ: TMUS), in partnership with Deutsche Telekom AG
and its tech incubator hubraum, today unveiled the top five U.S.
finalists in the first-ever Telecommunications Network API
Challenge. The competition called on developers to use cutting-edge
5G standalone (SA) network APIs to create innovative solutions for
businesses and consumers, showcasing the transformative potential
of advanced network technologies.
The challenge focused on real-world use cases that leverage 5G
SA’s advanced capabilities — such as ultra-low latency and enhanced
reliability — via the Quality on Demand (QoD) API from T-Mobile’s
DevEdge developer platform. Finalists demonstrated groundbreaking
applications spanning healthcare, transportation, industrial
safety, and entertainment.
Earlier this year, T-Mobile and Deutsche Telekom launched a
competition for developers to create exciting new business
opportunities and solutions for customers that leveraged
telecommunications network Application Programming Interfaces
(APIs). Developers utilized the Quality on Demand (QoD) network API
from T-Mobile DevEdge to significantly improve the performance of
solutions such as video streaming in race cars and mobile
healthcare services.
Top U.S. Finalists and Their Innovations:
- Domos: Measures application performance and allows the
app and user to understand the performance improvement of the QoD
API, ensuring educated decisions and uninterrupted user experiences
for business-critical applications like video conferencing, even
during peak demand.
- ISS (Intelligent Security Systems): Uses the QoD API to
power AI-driven smart intersections, dynamically illuminating
crosswalks with low-latency pedestrian tracking to enhance urban
safety.
- Shabodi: Provides NetAware, a programmable
network platform that gives developers access to network
services to enable interactions between applications and networks
for building solutions on advanced networks such as 5G that improve
factory safety, productivity, and cost efficiency through faster
and more reliable IoT sensor data from network-aware
applications.
- Unmanned Technologies: Delivers high-quality satellite
& terrestrial communications solutions across government and
commercial sectors. They offer mobile healthcare information and
communication technologies to remote and underserved communities
including 5G-enabled service trucks, leveraging the QoD API for
consistent, high-bandwidth connections.
- |pipe|: V-Stream Camera enables live, low-latency
(<300ms) video streaming for high-speed vehicles like race cars,
empowering real-time feedback for performance monitoring and
coaching; also for the remote human supervision of autonomous
public transportation vehicles like buses and robo taxis.
“5G standalone technology is unlocking unprecedented
opportunities for innovation,” said Daniel Thygesen, Senior Vice
President of Products, Partnerships and Growth, Wholesale,
T-Mobile. “Through APIs like Quality on Demand, developers like
these are showing how to harness the full potential of 5G to solve
critical challenges in healthcare, public safety, industrial
operations and more. By providing seamless, reliable connectivity,
T-Mobile’s network is enabling solutions that simply were not
possible before.”
