Living Environment & Health

Microelectronic systems assist us in many different areas of daily life. New technologies make possible intelligent living and working environments that are especially efficient and resource-friendly. Systems for collecting and processing information and for process control are of particular importance.

Electronic assistance is also particularly suited for the elderly and handicapped. In addition, countless innovations that would not have been possible without new kinds of hardware and software are finding their way into medical technology, in particular.

Reference Projects

corona.KEX.net

The project pursued the development of an early-detection and prediction system for the medical sector. The aim was to identify supply bottlenecks early and take countermeasures in good time. This should ensure the supply of necessary items and, overall, make supply chains resilient.

FMI4BIM

Simulations can increase the energy efficiency of buildings, especially if they are used in early planning phases. However, this is generally associated with a sizable commitment of time and money, so this project seeks to consolidate standardization approaches.

SmartSense4Life

In this project, an individually configurable technical platform with sensor, processing and wireless communication components is being developed to help people rehabilitate after a stroke or paraplegia.

ARCHE

A major challenge in managing decentralized energy systems in buildings is reconciling the different energy sources as well as the energy conversion and storage methods in use. The ARCHE results should simplify the planning and deployment of self-optimizing control architectures for such systems.

BIMLIFE

This project aimed at the development of a BIM-based digital platform for the management of buildings and information about their lifecycle.

Shango

The SHANGO project is intended to help find solutions to reduce the energy consumption of heat generators in the private sector in the long term and sustainably. Fraunhofer IIS/EAS is responsible for the focus on data science.

eeEmbedded

The European project eeEmbedded aimed at providing architects, engineers and asset managers with the possibility to create reliable energy analyses and predictions for buildings in future - both in the planning phases as well as during operation.

ESiMED

ESiMED seeked to simplify access to technologies like system-in-package (SiP) for companies from the medical technology sector.

Flex4Apps

The seamless interplay of cloud, communication and IoT components will be decisive for many applications in the near future. The Flex4Apps project therefore aims to considerably improve the reliability, availability and stability of such systems.

Knowledge4Retail

In this project, a smart commerce platform is being developed that enables brick-and-mortar businesses to create digital solutions for tailored customer service.
