Projects and products of ILT department

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

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.

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.

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.

GUIDELines for data protection in scientific research on aspects of human-technology interaction.

PCP-WISE is an innovative project developing state-of-the-art solutions (up to TRL 8) for water management and climate resilience in Europe using public procurement (PCP). By leveraging space technology and environmental observation data, PCP-WISE aims to address critical challenges related to floods, fires, and their impacts on infrastructure in rural and urban areas.

The MODAI project aims to develop an on-device AI platform for manufacturing. It will utilize standards-based technology so that interoperability between different systems is ensured. Furthermore, the project promotes the dissemination of intelligent digital twin technologies that strengthen the manufacturing sector internationally.

The project will realize a network of Digital Twins as a key enabler for Manufacturing-as-a-Service (MaaS), where production and manufacturing are offered as a service.

The Industrial Security Testing Framework "ISuTest" is a tool for finding weak points in the implementation of automation components. Discovered weak points can be corrected by the manufacturer and thus reduce the component's vulnerability. In the future, robustness against attacks will be a quality criterion with which manufacturers can distinguish themselves from others.
