Congratulations to Prof. Klaus Diepold and his team, whose dedication to supporting talents at the Technical University of Munich and at the Center for Digital Technology and Management (CDTM) was honored with the TUM Start-up Mentor of Excellence Award 2021! The award comes with a grant intended to mentor further start-up projects. Prof. Diepold is the head of the Chair of Data Processing at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Information Technology, a dedicated board member of the Center for Digital Technology and Management (CDTM), and leads the AI sector at the Science Board of the… [weiterlesen]

The State of Bavaria is supporting the Technical University of Munich (TUM) and a consortium of industrial partners with a total of 15 million euros in their efforts to develop the first prototype of an artificial intelligence-based factory ("KI.FABRIK") in Bavaria by 2030. Multifunctional, highly sensitive robots will use Artificial Intelligence (AI) to co-work with humans both directly and over long distances. [weiterlesen]

Kick-off for the factory of the future: The Munich School of Robotics and Machine Intelligence (MSRM) of the Technical University of Munich (TUM) is starting - as announced by the Bavarian state government in its high-tech agenda - its flagship initiative for the first KI.FABRIK in Bavaria. The KI.FABRIK Bayern is a completely flexible and networked location for the local, crisis-proof and profitable production of the most modern IT and mechatronic high-tech components in Bavaria. Take part via livestream when the MSRM of TUM lays the foundation stone for the lighthouse initiative KI.FABRIK… [weiterlesen]

How can artificial intelligence (AI) deliver lasting benefits in our everyday lives and the working world? How will intelligent robotics, as the bridge between AI and machines, revolutionize industry? And which technologies will prevail in the long term? These questions are addressed by munich_i, a brand-new robotics and AI platform of the Munich School of Robotics and Machine Intelligence (MSRM) of the Technical University of Munich (TUM), to be held as part of the online trade fair automatica sprint. The core element of munich_i is a Hightech-Summit on June 22, featuring prominent… [weiterlesen]

When we are old, who takes care of us? Because in 30 years the demographic change will be in full swing: 6.1 million people in Germany who need to be cared for and too few people who look after them. That doesn't work. That means we need a solution! One option are robots in care. The Munich School of Robotics and Machine Intelligence team develop robots that could support and relieve the nursing staff. Beta stories shows in this documentary what robots can already do in care and why we will need care robots in the future. [weiterlesen]

Get the support you need to implement new effective ways of manufacturing with human-centric industrial robots on your production floor. The European-funded program SHOP4CF (Smart Human Oriented Platform for Connected Factories) offers €100,000 in equity-free funding, expert support, and tailored training sessions on technology, innovation, and finances to each of the winning teams. The call for applications will stay open until August 2021. [weiterlesen]

Researchers aim to reduce the cost of common hearing test probes to facilitate nationwide hearing screenings for newborns even in developing countries. The early detection of hearing impairments will help to improve patients’ quality of life. [weiterlesen]

Reflexes protect our bodies – for example when we pull our hand back from a hot stove. These protective mechanisms could also be useful for robots. In this interview, Prof. Sami Haddadin and Johannes Kühn of the Munich School of Robotics and Machine Intelligence (MSRM) of the Technical University of Munich (TUM) explain why giving test subjects a “slap on the hand” could lay the foundations for the robots of the future.
