Algorithm Wants to Learn the Perfect Lap in a Racing Car
Research into robots and their autonomy can also lead to an algorithm chasing its own lap record. Does it do this better than humans? Read more
The great challenges of our time, such as digitalisation, sustainability or pandemics can hardly be solved by individual researchers working on their own, but require critical masses and interdisciplinary cooperation. The Fields of Expertise of TU Graz are the ideal platform for this – researchers collaborate in an interdisciplinary way and are supported by funding.
Lead Projects at TU Graz
Since 2015, TU Graz has awarded special funding for multidisciplinary lead projects. By supporting such basic research projects, outstanding areas of top research are further developed and the research profile of TU Graz is enhanced.
Current lead projects at TU Graz
- NExT - Non Exhaust Emission Topics
