Prof. S. Travis Waller (2nd from right) and his team from the Lighthouse Professorship and Chair of Transport Modelling and Simulation are featured in the new TUD supplement, as are Prof. Günther Prokop and Prof. Meng Wang with the TUD's planned "Smart Mobility Lab".
Three faculties of the TU Dresden (transport and traffic sciences, computer science and mechanical engineering) are involved in the creation of a TUD research campus in Upper Lusatia by 2026 - the "Smart Mobility Lab". The forward-looking, interdisciplinary project will conduct research on automated driving and flying and the associated safety aspects.
Editor Jana Mundus spoke with Prof. Günther Prokop, Head of the Chair of Automobile Engineering and spokesperson for the "Smart Mobility Lab" project consortium. Also present was Prof. Meng Wang, Head of the Chair of Traffic Process Automation at the "Friedrich List" Faculty of Transport and Traffic Sciences. He already has concrete plans to use the new TUD research campus in Hoyerswerda: With the help of mini-laboratories for autonomous vehicles and through experiments on the interaction of humans and artificial intelligence, he and his team want to research the consequences of the automation of traffic systems and structures.
