6G Life
TU Dresden and Technische Universität München have joined forces to form the 6G-life research center (project period Aug. 15, 2021 to Aug. 14, 2025, funded by BMBF) to advance cutting-edge research for future 6G communication networks with a focus on human-machine collaboration. The combination of the two universities of excellence brings together their world-leading prior work in tactile internet in the Cluster of Excellence CeTI, 5G communication networks, quantum communication, post-Shannon theory, artificial intelligence methods, and adaptive and flexible hardware and software platforms.
The Chair of Technical Design is involved in several work packages on: Digital Twin, Robotics, Sensors and Actuators,Tesbeds and Human-Machine Interfaces, and is researching demonstrators and their effects within this framework.
From the perspective of "Human-Machine-Interface" we are researching robotic systems for an application in the field of material sorting, exoskeletons for improved industrial manufacturing and digital human models to understand their effect in a hybrid working environment. The overarching goal is to answer the question: How does human-machine interaction change in the context of 6G technology? More information is available on the project website.
