The Elevator Pitch is an immersive project designed to demystify the world of the tactile internet. CeTI’s central vision is to enable humans to interact in quasi real-time with cyber-physical systems (CPS) in the real or virtual world over intelligent wide-area communication networks.
In this eleventh Elevator Pitch, you will meet PhD student Dominik Rivoir, who is researching computer-assisted surgical assistance systems and provides further insight into their use in the medical field. By bringing new technologies into the operating room, surgery can be taken to a new level. In order to provide assistive robots, they need to understand and perceive their environment during the simultaneous surgical workflow, which is the focus of his research. This means that these systems can provide the right support at the right time.
This immersive journey unfolds in 12 distinct ‘rooms’, each representing a unique thematic area:
TP1: Humans
TP2: Sensors and Actuators
TP3: Communication
TP4: Flexible Electronics
TP5: Tactile Computing
K1: Haptic Codecs
K2: Intelligent networks
K3: Perception and augmented interaction
K4: Co-adaptation
U1: Medicine
U2: Industry
U3: Internet of Skills
