About

Sebastian Steinhorst is a leading researcher whose work sits at the critical intersection of real-time communication, industrial automation, and autonomous systems security. His most notable contribution is the development of the **5GTQ: QoS-Aware 5G-TSN Simulation Framework** (2023), a highly influential work with 28 citations that addresses the challenge of integrating Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) with 5G to achieve ultra-reliable, low-latency communication (URLLC) for mobile robotics and Industrial IoT. This framework is pivotal for enabling the next generation of flexible, collaborative industrial automation. Steinhorst also advances the **Robotic Web of Things (RobWoT)** concept, generating real-time digital twin simulations to bridge fragmented IoT ecosystems. Recognizing the growing risks in this connected landscape, he has also authored key analyses on **Security Challenges in Autonomous Systems Design** (2023, 2025), highlighting vulnerabilities as AI-driven systems take on greater autonomy. Through his simulation tools and security frameworks, Steinhorst is shaping the foundational technologies for safe, reliable, and secure Industry 4.0 environments.
