6G-life

Semiautonomous telerobotic examination suite
The provision of medical expertise is limited in many areas of the world due to centralisation of health systems and poor infrastructure. There is also a shortage of specialised doctors and nurses. One goal of the 6G-life project is to reduce the imbalance between metropolitan and rural areas by establishing medical telepresence and high-precision telediagnostics. A prototypical demonstrator for a mobile telemedical system integrating 6G network concepts is to be developed, which is equipped for acute and elective diagnostics.
