The organization's commitment to applied research fosters collaborations with industry, service sectors, and public administration, translating scientific findings into practical applications and promoting technological advancement globally.
Manually checking the quality of components or products in industry is labor-intensive for employees and error-prone on top of that. The Fraunhofer Institute for Mechatronic Systems Design IEM is unveiling a solution that provides total versatility in this area.
The Fraunhofer Institute for Photonic Microsystems IPMS is designing a TSN-MACsec function block that will be tested as part of a demonstrator. The final implementation and performance analysis will be done in cooperation with the industrial company albis-elcon system Germany GmbH.
The accessibility of RISC-V has started a revolution and, thanks to its open architecture, allows developers to design processors tailored to specific requirements. The Fraunhofer IPMS also offers a processor IP based on the RISC V instruction set architecture.
Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Material and Beam Technology IWS have developed SURFinpro, a solution that uses artificial intelligence and optical measurement technology to detect, classify and visualize defects in real time, and report them to the plant carrying out the production.
Developing pioneering technology solutions and bringing them into application - that is the goal of Fraunhofer Institute for Photonic Microsystems IPMS.
Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Circuits IIS are working with Swissphone Wireless AG to develop reliable, wireless lone worker protection with an integrated area alerting system.
Fraunhofer IWS has developed a process to produce lightweight panels and profiles significantly faster as well as cheaper than with conventional methods.
Force-sensitive, dynamic, energy efficient and with a range of applications – these qualities are what distinguish the new robot gripper created by the Fraunhofer Institute for Mechatronic Systems Design IEM.
Researchers at the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft have developed an innovative production architecture, where orders are issued in a newly developed production language and carried out autonomously by machine tools or robots.
