Information and communication

Networks are becoming more and more important and many achievements facilitate our everyday lives and have become indispensable. Developments that were formerly dismissed as utopian visions of the future have become daily routines. Therefore, we passionately conduct research to find new and better ways of interaction for the benefit of all people.

AI Data Tooling

Tools and methods for providing data from all modalities (camera, lidar, radar, IMU, etc.) for AI-based functions.

Metal analysis - the gentle way

With a photothermal measuring device from the ILM, the edge zones of metal objects can be analyzed - contact-free and non-destructively.

Moving objects, quickly measured

With "single shot" measuring devices from the ILM's development lab, moving objects can be measured quickly and in 3D.

Deep insights with quantitative imaging

A model-based imaging method of the ILM provides information not only from the surface, but also on the structure and content of objects.

Detection of food counterfeits

The research project "Animal ID" of the NMI and its partners provides clarity about illegal admixtures in food and feed.
FZI: IT security suitcase

IT security suitcase for higher IT security

The FZI has developed an IT security kit that helps to avoid security vulnerabilities in IT products when implementing standard IT security practices.
