The real laboratory Smart East has become a blueprint for urban energy transition projects and will also be able to have an impact at European level in the future.

The joint project RepliCar aims at developing a reference system with integrated high-resolution radar, camera, lidar, GNSS and inertail sensors and its integration into a test vehicle

On 13th October 2023, the FZI Research Center for Information Technology presented the support of autonomous driving via remote assistance in the Test Area Autonomous Driving Baden-Württemberg. The demonstration was given at Campus East of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) during the closing event of research project KIGLIS as part of the KIT Science Week.

The new Transfer Centre for Cybersecurity in SMEs (Transferstelle Cybersicherheit im Mittelstand) was launched and will provide free, hands-on support to small and medium-sized enterprises to help preventing, detecting and responding to cyberattacks.

Together, the partners in the MINGA funding project have set themselves the goal of further developing local public transport.

The team of the FZI Research Center for Information Technology from Karlsruhe, Baden- Württemberg has won the ESA-ESRIC Space Resources Challenge. The prize: 500,000 Euros for research – and the prospect to a real mission to the Moon. That’s one small step for research, one giant leap for the FZI.

The FZI returns to the Hannover Messe in presence this year. The joint stand with the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) allows interesting insights into the diverse research of the transfer institution: From the autonomous cargo bike to the mobile robot Spot, the demonstrators show how the use of artificial intelligence, robotics, sensor technology and virtual reality can master social and industrial challenges.
