Testing new technologies across a wide range of industries

The fortiss Labs bridge the gap between academia and practice and offer an application-oriented, interactive platform for exchange on topics related to digital transformation. They support companies, research partners, and researchers in testing innovative software systems and further developing products, services, and business models.

As drivers of research, the labs draw on the combined expertise of fortiss’s areas of specialization and a state-of-the-art, industry-specific infrastructure. They enable the practical application of current research findings, the identification of necessary improvements through testing, and the initiation of new research directions.

In the laboratory facilities, innovative technologies from the fields of Industrial IoT (IIoT), autonomous driving, intelligent robotics, smart energy management, and neuromorphic computing are tested under realistic conditions. In doing so, the researches analyze key industrial challenges, combine cutting-edge research methods from various disciplines, and prepare the results as prototypes for practical application.
