27 September 2022, Saxony-Anhalt, Köthen: Sebastian Zug, professor at TU Freiberg and responsible for the "Ready4Robots" research project, on the campus of Anhalt University of Applied Sciences in Köthen. In June, the university, together with nine other partners from science and industry, received the funding notification for the research project "Ready4Robots - Multimodal Maps for Autonomous Micromobiles" from the German Federal Ministry of Digital Affairs and Transport (BMDV). The project is to explore new standards for the mobility of the future. In the course of the project, cyclists from Köthen will collect infrastructure data that will later serve as a basis for the use of autonomous cargo bikes and delivery robots. The universities in Freiberg and Magdeburg as well as the universities of Anhalt and Merseburg are involved in the joint project, supported by partners from industry and the district of North Saxony.
