Today, a delegation from Gyeongbuk Technopark (GBTP) in South Korea visited ScaDS.AI Dresden/Leipzig along with industry representatives and researchers. Gyeongbuk Technopark is a public innovation and technology institution that supports startups and small and medium-sized enterprises in technological development.

After a short introduction by managing director Dr. Daniel Wiegreffe, Dr. Fabian Liessmann presented the startup AI-Driven Therapeutics. The Start-up is developing an AI-supported platform for protein design and drug discovery. With the help of their proprietary Co-Scientist, researchers can access scalable computing power without having to build and maintain complex in-house systems. Tasks that would normally take weeks can thus be solved in a matter of hours.

After that, Junior Research Group Leader Dr. Arthur Fleig presented the group’s recent work to the delegation. He covered Biomechanical User Simulation in Human-Computer Interaction with tools (SIM2VR, MyoInteract) and practical guidelines. After that, he reported on a recent workshop in Busan, Korea. Dr. Arthur Fleig also got into his research about how overtaking warning assistants in cars enabled more patient driving. He showed, how an LLM-based privacy policy assistant helps to understand these policies without needing a university degree.

Last but not least, Oliver Welz and Dr. Thomas Burghardt gave the visitors a tour of the Living Lab. During the tour, visitors had the opportunity to interactively try out the Magic Mirror, including its virtual fitting feature, a demo of computer vision and pose detection by Prof. Fuchs’s research group (HTWK), and the robot arena, where researchers of ScaDS.AI Dresden/Leipzig are investigating VisionLanguageAction models.
