EVENTS
PREDICT-6G demonstration at MWC Barcelona 2024
MWC Barcelona, the largest and most influential event in the connectivity sector, was held on 26-29 February 2024. It brought together more than 28,000 organisations in a total of over 2,700 exhibitors, one of which was PREDICT-6G consortium member InterDigital. InterDigital had a strong presence at MWC, with a stand that included, among other things, several demos showing how innovation powers connected experiences at work, at play and at rest.?
At Work: Sensing-Enabled 6G Mobile Networks, was the space where InterDigital showcased sensing-enabled 6G mobile networks through a connected factory environment. Using InterDigital's sensing and communication technology to retrieve and send real-time information from network sensors and devices, the InterDigital team showed how their contributions to this fundamental 6G function can unlock new potential for consumers and businesses. One of these contributions is the PREDICT-6G demonstration called "Novel User Plane concepts for deterministic communications in an ISAC setting".
Dr. Sebastian Robitzsch from InterDigital, responsible for the standardisation of PREDICT-6G, showed our demo to the visitors of the WMC. The demonstration featured a mobile network for seamless wireless connectivity in a warehouse. An autonomous vehicle equipped with distance and camera sensors was connected to this network. Additionally, radar sensors on mobile devices enhance security by detecting objects. Users controlled the vehicle remotely with a wireless glove, and sensor data was processed in the mobile network before being integrated into an application, enabling precise navigation in the warehouse.
DATAMITE at Data Week 2024
On 12 March 2024, Data Week took place under the umbrella of the Data Spaces Symposium 2024 in Darmstadtium, Darmstadt (Germany). Organised by BDVA, Data Week is the gathering of the Big Data and Data-Driven AI research and innovation community in Europe. This year, it focused on the fundamental elements of Data Value creation. DATAMITE was proud to be part of the programme, taking part in the session called 'Navigating the Future of Data Monetisation: Insights from Horizon Europe projects'.
The session brought together six Horizon Europe projects – UPCAST, FAME, PISTIS, EnrichMyData, Graph-Massivizer and DATAMITE – to explore the multifaceted dimensions of data monetization. Through a comprehensive dialogue, all the projects together aimed to unravel the value, challenges, and approaches associated with transforming data into economic assets. Liliana Beltrán, Project Manager at ITI, was in charge of representing DATAMITE and sharing, among other things, the case studies of the project to address the challenges of data monetisation and to make European companies and administrations relevant actors in the data economy.

? Reincarnate's new preprint prepares the ground for digital innovation tech readiness.
The Reincarnate project advances circular practices in the built environment through 10 digital innovations.?
Recently, a group of researchers from their partners Technische Universit?t Berlin and Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung conducted a study to demonstrate AI's capabilities in a real laboratory environment. This study is part of one digital innovation addressing the challenge of enhancing the sustainability of building materials. With a success rate of 33% in 8 weeks of development time for AI compared to 4% in 12 weeks for laboratory approaches, the former is faster and more efficient in delivering the desired material properties!
All this work is compiled in their latest preprint, prepared for the upcoming RILEM Association Spring conference in Italy. They expect to achieve the TRL, allowing them to apply it in real-world scenarios.
