InterDigital to demonstrate AI-enabled teleoperation and energy efficient edge intelligence

Wilmington, Delaware – InterDigital, Inc. (Nasdaq: IDCC), a wireless, video and AI technology research and development company, will demonstrate new milestones in AI-enhanced services and energy efficient edge intelligence at the fifth annual 6G@UT Forum, taking place at The University of Texas at Austin.

Managing the overhead of AI model training is a key challenge to applying AI throughout the wireless network. InterDigital is a founding member of the 6G@UT Research Center and has partnered with researchers from The University of Texas at Austin and Keysight Technologies on real-time Over-the-Air Federated Learning (OTA-FL) training, where the aggregation of model updates happens directly "over-the-air." At the forum, InterDigital will conduct a live hardware demonstration of multi-user multiple input multiple output (MIMO) OTA-FL, which uses less spectrum resources and delivers more energy-efficient AI training at the edge device.

InterDigital will also showcase innovation supporting AI-enabled teleoperation, where predictive AI agents stabilize real-time uplink video over cellular networks and a GenAI assistant enhances human judgment for safer remote vehicle operation, despite degraded network conditions. The innovation demonstrates how wireless and AI capabilities can converge to foster intelligent infrastructure for new services.

As part of the forum, InterDigital’s Head of Wireless Research Douglas Castor will participate in the panel, “6G: What’s in, What’s Out, and Why?,” alongside peers from Ericsson, Nokia, Communications Technology Laboratory, and TU Dresden. Doug will share InterDigital’s perspective on the research, standards, and pre-standards efforts shaping 6G.

The forum will take place on Thursday, April 9^th at The University of Texas at Austin, Mulva Auditorium. Learn more here.
