Children's University with Stefanie Speidel at TU Dresden
2025-11-04 17:30 - 19:00 (Europe/Berlin) | TU Dresden, Helmholtzstraße 10, Dresden, 01062
Prof. Stefanie Speidel speaks at the Children’s University on the topic of surgery of the future: “High-tech instead of band-aids – What will the operating room of the future look like?”
In her lecture, she shows children how surgical robots work and how AI can be used to teach them to perform certain tasks independently. She also explains how these systems can think for themselves during an operation, provide important information, and even identify risks at an early stage.

Holiday Robotics Program
2026-02-09 - 2026-02-14 | TU Dresden, Helmholtzstraße 10, Dresden, 01062
During our holiday program at CeTI, students are spending an exciting week full of technology, creativity, and teamwork.
After getting to know each other and exploring CeTI’s robotics demos, they are working hands-on in the Robolab. Throughout the week, they are deepening their skills, tackling new challenges, and developing their own solutions. A special highlight is the CeTI-BAR, where everyone enjoys homemade cinnamon rolls together. The program concludes with a Lego module and programming session, followed by presentations of their projects to parents in the afternoon.

Science Night Dresden 2026
2026-06-26 17:00 - 23:59 | CeTI, BAR Barkhausen-Bau, Georg-Schumann-Str. 9, Dresden, 01187, Germany
Science Night is taking place once again – for the 23rd time – and CeTI will be there once more, together with the partner projects of the Deutsche Telekom Chair of Communication Networks. We will present our latest demonstrators and provide insights into our research in an interactive and exciting setting.
Many program highlights are planned:

Join us on the lawn behind the HSZ starting at 6:45 p.m. Our Junior Research Group Leader, Pit Hofmann, will introduce CeTI on stage. Then, young and old alike can hit the dance floor at the “Disco with Robot Dogs.”
Starting at 5:00 p.m. in the HSZ lawn pavilion, you can watch our Juggling Demonstration and try it out for yourself!
CeTIBAR will open at 5 p.m. Come watch robot arms prepare cocktails live.
In collaboration with CeTI, the NCT developed a demo offering a glimpse into “The operating room of the future.” Visitors can test their skills with a dexterity task designed for surgical training.

In addition, there will be a raffle with great prizes, tasty popcorn, and a tour of the newly opened Holodeck. We look forward to seeing all of our visitors!
