6G-Holonet

Objective

6G-Holonet envisions a transformative, cross-sector ecosystem that pioneers the use of 6G technologies to unlock the full potential of immersive and interactive media across three rapidly expanding verticals: agile volumetric media production, live sports and entertainment engagement, and cultural heritage preservation. While 5G has already started to explore these domains, current solutions remain fragmented, infrastructure-heavy, and economically unsustainable. 6G-Holonet breaks this ceiling by developing a common AI-native, communication–computation–control fabric that supports glass-to-glass workflows, from capture to rendering to distribution. This vision embraces uplink-centric architectures, real-time orchestration, and energy-aware operation, enabling affordable and scalable production methods for both large-scale events and smaller cultural or studio settings.
Each vertical presents unique challenges in terms of technical performance, user expectations, and market dynamics, yet all converge on the same fundamental requirements: ultra-low latency, uplink-intensive capacity, and sustainable compute-connectivity integration. By addressing these shared needs within a modular and standards-aligned 6G architecture, 6G-Holonet enables:
• Cross-domain technology transfer, ensuring innovations developed in one vertical can be reused in others.
• Platform scalability and openness, allowing SMEs, cultural institutions, and media producers to build upon common components.
• Shared validation of 6G enablers, grounding long-term standardisation and industrial adoption.
Ultimately, 6G-Holonet will not only demonstrate cutting-edge 6G technologies but also foster sustainable business models and collaborative ecosystems that will endure beyond the project and contribute to Europe’s global leadership in immersive communications.

Fields of science (EuroSciVoc)

CORDIS classifies projects with EuroSciVoc, a multilingual taxonomy of fields of science, through a semi-automatic process based on NLP techniques. See: The European Science Vocabulary.

Keywords

Project’s keywords as indicated by the project coordinator. Not to be confused with the EuroSciVoc taxonomy (Fields of science)

Programme(s)

Multi-annual funding programmes that define the EU’s priorities for research and innovation.

Topic(s)

Calls for proposals are divided into topics. A topic defines a specific subject or area for which applicants can submit proposals. The description of a topic comprises its specific scope and the expected impact of the funded project.

Funding Scheme

Funding scheme (or “Type of Action”) inside a programme with common features. It specifies: the scope of what is funded; the reimbursement rate; specific evaluation criteria to qualify for funding; and the use of simplified forms of costs like lump sums.
