At TUM, the Munich School of Robotics and Machine Intelligence is carrying out cutting-edge interdisciplinary research into AI and robotics for everyday life.
The AI mobility hub "AImotion Bavaria" at the University of Applied Sciences Ingolstadt (THI) has taken over further development of the adaptive mobile manipulator R10-D10. Read on to find out how this AI-enabled, autonomous, and easy-to-program robot learns to optimize production processes in manufacturing.
At THI, guest professor Alessandro Zimmer is strengthening collaborations between Bavaria and Latin America, driving research in AI and mobility engineering across the globe.
Eva Weig and her team are building mechanical quantum sensors large enough to be seen under an electron microscope. One day, they could become fundamental components of a new quantum technology.
Together with industry, researchers at the Technical University Munich (TUM) are shaping the future of work with the new "KI.FABRIK" (AI.Factory) and the German-French Academy for the Industry of the Future (GFA).
At JMU Würzburg, Professor Laurens W. Molenkamp and his team are conducting pioneering work on topological materials. With its cutting-edge technology, the new Institute for Topological Insulators will be the ideal place for them to develop this research.
Chemistry: A sophisticated process stacks dye molecules in such a way that their luminosity increases significantly as their size grows – a significant step forward for the electronics of tomorrow.
- Researchers combine 3D image recognition with language models. - Artificial intelligence can be integrated into any robot. - Robots use continuous probability calculations to guide searches.
- TUM and NEURA Robotics are establishing a 2,300-square-meter facility at the TUM Convergence Centre at Munich Airport, where the partners will develop the TUM RoboGym. - According to TUM Professor Lorenzo Masia, the research and training center “will create an important counterweight to competitors in the USA and China and ignite a new synergistic approach and a unique collaboration paradigm between academia and industry.” - In TUM RoboGym, robots will learn general capabilities that they can then independently apply to specific tasks.
How much carbon dioxide do parks and individual trees in cities absorb, and how much do they release? To answer this question, researchers at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) have developed a high-resolution CO₂ biogenic flux model. Their findings show that, on average, around two percent of Munich's annual urban emissions are compensated by vegetation. Urban trees have the greatest impact, whereas grassy areas are often net sources of CO₂.
