2025

The 8th ML4CPS offers a platform for exchange between researchers and users from various fields. The conference will be held in English on March 6 and 7, 2025 at the Fraunhofer Forum in Berlin. It will be hosted by the Fraunhofer Institute of Optronics, System Technologies and Image Exploitation IOSB, the Helmut Schmidt University (HSU), the Hamburg University of Technology (TUHH) and the Chair of Production Engineering of E-Mobility Components (PEM) at RWTH Aachen University.

The 7th International Conference on Optical Characterization of Materials (OCM) presents the latest research on optical characterization of materials as well as exciting developments in practice, which are driven by new applications and innovative sensor technologies and are constantly evolving.

The Hannover Messe, held under the motto “Shaping the future with technology,” will take place this year from March 31 to April 4. Fraunhofer IOSB will also be represented this year. The business units “Automation and Digitalization” and “Inspection and Optronic Systems” will present a range of topics.

"The International Workshop on Infrared Target and Background Modeling and Simulation" is scheduled June 2-5, 2025 and will be hosted by Fraunhofer IOSB, Ettlingen, Germany.

The workshop is devoted to any research involving oxide, chalcogenide, chalcopyrite or halide single crystals that are used as optical, piezoelectric, laser or non-linear materials, and as substrates for piezoelectric and oxide electronic applications.

From November 9 to 15, 2025, Hannover will host AGRITECHNICA 2025, the world's leading trade fair for agricultural technology and machinery. Together with other Fraunhofer institutes, the Visual Inspection Systems department (SPR) will be there with various exhibits. Visit us at the joint Fraunhofer booth in Hall 17, Booth B15!

Networking, technology, and inspiration—Fraunhofer IOSB will also be represented at SPS 2025. You can find our colleagues in Hall 6, Booth 128, and in Hall 5, Booth 358.
