On July 4th, our managing director Thomas Staufenbiel participated in the Berlin 6G Conference 2024, organized by the 6G Platform Germany. Thomas had the honor of participating in the session "Beyond Metal: The Future of Robotics Powered by 6G," organized by Prof. Slawomir Stanczak (Fraunhofer HHI and TU Berlin), with additional insights from Prof. Frank Fitzek (TU Dresden), Prof. Christian Wietfeld (TU Dortmund), Michael Epp (6G-RIC), Prof. Stefanie Speidel (TU Dresden and DKFZ), and Dr. Frank Hofmann (Bosch Research). The session examined the exciting potential arising from the fusion of AI-based robotics with 6G technology.

In our presentation "Applications for Advanced Network Technologies in Robotics," Thomas showcased our recent advancements in utilizing 6G and OpenRAN networks in cloud and edge robotics. In detail, he presented our contribution to the research projects 6G-Terafactory and CampusDynA. Thomas emphasized the application value and increasing capabilities of intelligent robotics thanks to powerful wireless network technologies.

During the subsequent panel discussion, the participants deepened the requirements, expectations, and potential of 6G and how it will enhance AI-based robotics and open up fascinating possibilities and new applications.
