TheWaveTalk signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for "Improving Public Services and Promoting Utilization" on February 6th, together with the Dongdaemun-gu Facilities Management Corporation, Grecter Co., Ltd., and Mark43.
This agreement was initiated to introduce TheWaveTalk's proprietary water quality measurement technology into public sports facilities — specifically public swimming pools — to create a safe water environment that residents can directly experience.

Real-Time Pool Water Quality Monitoring with Laser-Based Turbidity Management
At the heart of this agreement is TheWaveTalk's pilot project for turbidity management in public swimming pools. Given that pools are used by large numbers of people simultaneously, precise real-time monitoring of water quality changes is essential. TheWaveTalk will leverage its laser-based turbidity measurement technology to continuously collect and analyze data on pool water clarity.
Precision Data Analysis: Detects water quality changes instantly with high-resolution measurement capability at the 0.001 NTU level.
Maximized Operational Efficiency: Goes beyond the limitations of conventional manual measurement by establishing a real-time continuous automated measurement system, significantly improving management reliability.
Maintenance Innovation: Maintains measurement stability even in swimming pool environments prone to biofilm (scale) buildup, dramatically extending maintenance intervals and reducing operational burden.
Setting a National Standard for Public Pool Water Quality Management — Starting in Dongdaemun-gu
TheWaveTalk's technological capabilities have already been validated through numerous recognitions, including the Minister of Trade, Industry and Energy Award at the 2025 Korea Invention Patent Exhibition, as well as the Ministry of Environment's Type Approval and NET (New Excellent Technology) certification. Through this pilot project with the Dongdaemun-gu Facilities Management Corporation, TheWaveTalk plans to further refine its data analysis model optimized for swimming pool environments.
Building on this foundation, TheWaveTalk aims to roll out its continuous automated turbidity measurement solution to public swimming pools and sports facilities nationwide, setting a new standard for pool water quality management. The goal is to transition from conventional methods relying on visual inspection or intermittent testing to a data-driven, always-on monitoring system — ensuring that people across the country can use swimming pools with confidence.
Continuous Technological Innovation for a Safer Water Environment
Kim Young-dug, CEO of TheWaveTalk, who attended the signing ceremony, stated: "This agreement is particularly meaningful because it marks the expansion of TheWaveTalk's technology beyond water treatment plants into public swimming pools that citizens use in their daily lives. Based on successful pilot results in Dongdaemun-gu, we will introduce TheWaveTalk's innovative products to public swimming pools across the country, eliminating blind spots in water quality management."
TheWaveTalk will continue to lead the way in creating clean and safe water environments throughout Korea — from water treatment plants to schools and swimming pools — through its laser-based water quality monitoring solutions.
TheWaveTalk's Vision and Goals
TheWaveTalk aims to enable universal access to clean water through innovative water quality monitoring technology. Our goal is to democratize the water quality management market with compact, affordable, and maintenance-free sensors.
To achieve this, we are committed to continuous technological innovation. Our solutions go beyond simple water quality measurement — they actively contribute to creating safer water environments.
Conclusion
TheWaveTalk's efforts extend far beyond technology development. We are dedicated to ensuring that everyone has access to safe, clean water. We will continue to introduce our technology to more public swimming pools and sports facilities, setting new standards in water quality management.
