Activities 2026

On this page you will find a list of upcoming and ongoing events in which we, as the Measurement, Control, and Diagnostic Systems Department at Fraunhofer IOSB, are participating.

A cordial invitation - we look forward to meeting you on one of these occasions!!

Girls'Day aims to make technical, scientific, trade and IT professions in particular more attractive to girls and young women.

In addition to practical experience, female role models in STEM subjects are the key to encouraging girls to learn a profession in this field. The key message of the 2017 Microsoft study was that girls can be inspired to pursue STEM disciplines through female role models and more practical experience.

Fraunhofer IOSB will be represented again this year with six workshops.
We are participating with a workshop:

👉 Getting started with programming – with your own game! 🔧✨ 

Try out programming for yourself and make the game your own little project. At the end, you can take your source code home with you.  Supervisor: Anne Sielmann and Tobias Hellmund (ILT).

Bilfinger and Fraunhofer IOSB are developing a teleoperated retrieval system on behalf of the Federal Company for Radioactive Waste Disposal (BGE) to retrieve radioactive waste from the Asse II mine. The goal is to enable the safe, precise, and efficient exposure and retrieval of the waste drums – using multifunctional work machines, modern robotics, and assistance functions for the control center.

Read the press release, which focuses on the following topics:

• The Challenge of the Asse II Mine: Retrieval as a Generational Project
• Specialized machinery for extreme conditions
• Robotics, sensors, and assistance
• Safe remote operation
• Forward-looking comprehensive concept

Europe’s largest geoscience event. Every year, it brings together scientists from all over the world. Few other events bring together so many disciplines under one roof: natural hazards, climate science, planetary science … and many more, fostering interdisciplinary exchange, new ideas, and cutting-edge research.

»Die 𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘂𝘀𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘂𝗻𝗴 vor der wir aktuell stehen, ist die Zusammenführung extrem heterogener Datenquellen in einer Datenbank, immer mit dem Ziel diese so verfügbar zu machen, dass anschließend KI-Modelle mit wenig Aufwand trainiert werden können« so Andreas Wunsch. Unser Kollege ist vor Ort mit einem Posterbeitag:

»The challenge we currently face is integrating extremely heterogeneous data sources into a single database, always with the goal of making them available in such a way that AI models can subsequently be trained with minimal effort,« says Andreas Wunsch. Our colleague is on site with a poster presentation:

»IQ Water: AI-supported modeling and forecasting of biodiversity and water quality in drinking water reservoirs«
