Making things possible together

Our projects

The MCube cluster strategy focuses on innovative projects that drive technological and social progress in the mobility sector. This takes place on two levels:

Innovation projects
Our pioneering innovation projects take center stage. These are implemented in transdisciplinary consortia and are geared towards the current challenges and opportunities of mobility.

Integration projects
The integration projects ensure horizontal networking and strengthen cooperation and knowledge transfer between the innovation projects.

Explore our exciting projects from Phase 1 and Phase 2 and discover how MCube makes mobility sustainable and future-oriented.

Projects phase 2 (01.11.2024 - 31.10.2027)

6 Innovation projects

The project investigates how various car-sharing models at residential locations can offer an attractive alternative to the little-used private car.

The project aims to influence mobility behavior on the TUM research campus in Garching through digital and physical interventions.

We are creating a digital basis for comprehensively mapping mobility in the metropolitan region and testing the effectiveness and safety of future measures before they are introduced.

We are developing and testing an autonomous vehicle for use in urban and rural real-world laboratories.

We are investigating the potential impact of innovative Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS) offerings such as mobility budgets and mobility bundles in real-world laboratories for everyday mobility and major events.

With MOSAIQ, we are committed to environmentally friendly mobility, participation, social inclusion, a high quality of life and climate-resilient urban districts in Munich.

3 Integration projects

In our project "Effective participation for mobility innovation", we are integrating the topics of participation and communication across the cluster.

Our project deals with evaluation, process evaluation, upscaling, replication and application of the project processes and results.

We create knowledge and practical skills to support cities and municipalities in implementing responsible governance models and innovative mobility experiments.

Projects Phase 1 (01.11.21 - 31.10.24)

11 Innovation projects

aqt

We have tested in Munich neighborhoods how car-reduced spaces can contribute to a more liveable city through participation, research and real-world laboratories.

The aim of the project was to develop a holistic, cooperative optimization approach that particularly addresses delays caused by unpredictable traffic phenomena.

We have developed and tested an innovative evaluation method that can be used to assess the impact of transport infrastructure projects.

As part of the project, we worked collaboratively and transdisciplinarily with actors from the field in order to gain concrete knowledge for a just mobility transition.

We have worked on creating a full-cost perspective on urban transportation.

STEAM aims to analyze and design future vehicle usage concepts for passenger and freight transport in a holistic and user-centered manner.

With the help of experiments and real-world laboratories, we have developed sustainable mobility solutions and driven forward the mobility transition in urban areas.

We have tested how cargo bikes can improve the delivery of parcels.

We have tested an innovative car-sharing model with electric vehicles in a real-world laboratory. The special feature: Only a closed circle of neighbors shared the cars.

The aim of the project was to set up and permanently operate a test field for automated and connected driving (separate and not subject to road traffic regulations).

With the Wiesn Shuttle project, we have proven that autonomous driving is already possible in complex, urban environments.

3 Integration projects

The project has developed a concept for the human-centered and responsible design of mobility innovations.

DatSim ensured the synergistic bundling of mobility data in the cluster, supported the evaluation of measures and enabled the simulation of relevant scenarios.

SUE

The project evaluated the internal processes and the impact of the cluster and used the knowledge gained to further develop the mobility system in a targeted manner.
