Projects and products of ILT department

As part of the joint project iTEXFer, we are developing an expandable Industry 4.0 construction kit specifically tailored to the textile industry.

Our Connector combines the benefits of Industrie 4.0 and International Data Spaces for interoperable, trusted and controlled data exchange.

The aim of the H2020 project is the digital management of production capacities for the development of flexible supply chains between consumers and producers - especially for rapid response to pandemics.

Understanding real traffic - safeguarding automated mobility. The safe introduction of highly and fully automated vehicles depends crucially on how well we can digitally map today's traffic events - especially critical situations. AVEAS develops scalable, data protection-compliant methods for systematically recording and modeling risk-relevant scenarios and transferring them to virtual test environments.

The FA³ST Ecosystem is a practical, open and extensible solution for companies to efficiently use asset administration shells and drive innovation in the area of digital twins and data-driven business models.

Cyber resilience is seen as the next step in IT security and focuses primarily on incident response and restoring process capability. Appropriate monitoring of process-carrying automation systems and infrastructures is necessary to achieve cyber resilience.

The bi0SpaCE project is developing an open software framework for creating dynamic digital product passports (DPPs) in the form of digital twins in the Industrie 4.0 standard (Asset Administration Shell, VS) for bio-based products. It promotes secure, sovereign data exchange in international data spaces and supports the creation of efficient solutions in the circular economy to increase the sustainability and competitiveness of European bio-based industries.

The GDS is a Fraunhofer IOSB implementation for managing OPC UA applications and their certificate management.

OpenCitySense is an expandable framework for municipalities and operators of urban data platforms. With the OGC standard SensorThingsAPI of the FROST® server for time- and location-related data, sensor landscapes can be set up in a structured manner. OpenCitySense expands the server to include sensor and data monitoring and lifecycle management of sensors, from initial setup to the operational phase and uninstallation.

“AutoInspect” is a system for continuous object assessment (in real time) by multimodal inspection along the production cycle. Both a direct reaction to the results and their long-term observation are possible. The system is supported by a digital quality twin with open I4.0 standards.
