EDIH-AICS
European Digital Innovation Hub applied Artificial Intelligence and Cybersecurity
A new approach to sustainable production
Research for tomorrow's production
Together with our partners, we are developing the FZI Living Lab Industrial Intelligence and the FZI Living Lab Service Robotics to develop pioneering software and hardware solutions for tomorrow’s production. Our focus is on adaptive robots, digital twins, and AI-supported systems that make production processes more flexible, efficient, and resilient.
Intuitive operating concepts and web-based interfaces give even non-specialist users easy access to the technologies.
From the development of modular software systems to practical tests and virtual factories, we establish a real-world environment for research and development in production.
Contact us if you want to shape the industry of the future.
Intelligent solutions for smart production
Our support
Our customized technologies will boost your efficiency and unlock new potential. Below, we present a few examples of our areas of expertise that will help you excel in production.
AI-driven production optimization
- Development and implementation of data analytics and AI use cases in production
- For example: bottleneck analysis, condition monitoring, predictive maintenance, anomaly detection, computer vision (tracking/ID, quality assurance), decision support, order control, smart services
Design of robust AI systems
- Methods for the long-term robustness of productive AI systems
- Protection against concept drift and other harmful influences
- Awareness raising, consulting, training, and implementation
Immersive digital twins
- Immersive digital twins
- Integration and merging of heterogeneous data sources
- Use of industry standards (e.g., AAS, OPC-UA)
- Immersive visualization and interaction in 2D, 3D, VR, or AR
- Areas of application: mechanical engineering, buildings
Cross-value chain assessment of sustainability
- Analysis of supply and value chains in relation to sustainability KPIs (e.g., carbon footprint)
- Development and processing of heterogeneous data sources
- Basis for fulfilling reporting obligations (ESPR/DPP, sustainability reports)
- Preparation for the introduction of circular economy mechanisms
- Identifying potential for optimization
Automated and connected driving
- Design of test vehicles
- Development of sensor, computer, and activation concepts
- Support with the approval concept
- Use cases
- Operational setup of automated vehicles
- Implementation of PoCs for automated driving
- Connection to customer-specific backends
Open source/open data in automated vehicles and smart infrastructure
- Consulting for sensor data processing
- Workshops and trainings
