A 5G network backbone for more advanced AI research and immersive learning platforms has been deployed at Rosenheim Technical University of Applied Sciences (TH Rosenheim) in Germany.

A four year deal between the university, Slovenia’s Kontron and Mugler aims to test out a range of 5G AI use cases, enabling testing and deployment of AI algorithms and real-time applications at network edge and in the cloud.

This will be used for research projects in the proto_lab at Th Rodenheim under Research Professor in AI for Technical Systems and Co-Director Prof. Dr.-Ing. Noah Klarmann.

“A reliable network can offer improved mobility and flexibility to cater for people and assets on the move in ever-changing production and logistics environments,” said Prof Oliver Kramer, TH Rosenheim proto_lab Co-Founder and Director of the Research and Development Platform.

“Individualization caters for customers increasingly asking for personalized technology solutions to meet their unique needs and is providing them with a critical competitive edge over their rivals. Our 5G campus network also provides the perfect foundation for the implementation and further development of our R&D projects in the proto_lab.”

The collaboration uses a 5G Mobile Private Network (MPN) from Slovenia’s Kontron integrated by network systems integrator and telecommunications solutions supplier Mugler.

The network supports various use cases, including asset tracking, automated robots and AVGs, flexible workspaces, real-time process automation and voice and video communications.

“The network deployment is the starting point for our comprehensive four-year partnership, during which time, various industry-relevant use cases will be tested,” said Mugler SE Director Local Networks Dr. Markus Dod. “At Mugler SE, we focus on providing reliable and forward-looking telecommunications solutions. This partnership with Kontron and TH Rosenheim highlights how 5G technology, combined with practical integration expertise, can drive meaningful progress. Our aim is to demonstrate how customised 5G networks can effectively support both industry and academia in advancing connectivity and automation.”

“At Kontron, we are proud to be part of a project that not only advances cutting-edge research but also creates invaluable learning opportunities for the next generation of innovators,” said Janez Öri, Slovenia’s Kontron Executive Director of Communications Solutions. “The deployment of our 5G MPN underscores our commitment to empowering industries and academic institutions with reliable, high-performance connectivity solutions that drive transformation and progress.”

“The collaboration with TH Rosenheim and Mugler SE serves as a blueprint for the future, demonstrating how academia and industry can work together to empower education through technology,” said Öri.
