About
Jan Petershans is a researcher at the forefront of integrating collaborative robotics with advanced digital twin technologies and next-generation communication systems. His work centers on the development of high-fidelity, real-time virtual replicas of physical robotic systems, with a particular emphasis on practical implementation and interoperability. Petershans’s most-cited paper, “Implementation Analysis of Collaborative Robot Digital Twins in Physics Engines” (2025, 3 citations), provides a groundbreaking blueprint for constructing a Digital Twin of a 6G communications testbed. This work uniquely combines two robotic manipulators with a high-precision optical infrared tracking system within Unreal Engine 5, offering invaluable, step-by-step guidance for researchers and engineers seeking to bridge the gap between simulation and reality. By detailing the practical challenges and solutions of this integration, Petershans is enabling more robust and reliable development of autonomous systems for Industry 4.0 and beyond. His contributions are shaping how future collaborative robots are designed, tested, and deployed in complex, communication-driven environments.
