Generative Artificial Intelligence

Tapping into potential for industrial applications

Generative AI

The »Embedded Software & AI« department is intensively engaged with the latest developments in generative AI (GenAI) in order to create innovative solutions for our customers and partners. Thanks to our significant involvement in research projects and close cooperation with scientific and industrial partners, we have acquired in-depth expertise and know-how.

Our goal is to always stay at the cutting edge of technology and integrate the latest state-of-the-art technologies into our products and services.

Our focus areas

The following four areas exemplify our particular expertise and focus in the field of GenAI.

Secure, intelligent document management

Our expertise in retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) enables us to combine complex document processing with state-of-the-art AI technology. We develop solutions that efficiently analyze large amounts of text data, extract relevant information, and present it in an understandable way. In this way, we help companies leverage knowledge from unstructured data, optimize decision-making processes, and automatically generate documents.

Agentic AI: Autonomous AI systems for proactive business processes

Our expertise in the field of agentic AI enables us to develop intelligent systems that can act independently and perform complex tasks autonomously. We create AI agents that continuously analyze their environment, make decisions independently, and carry out targeted actions. In this way, we support companies in automating routine processes, responding proactively to changes, and sustainably increasing their efficiency through autonomous AI systems.

Embodied AI: AI-supported robot control

We use GenAI specifically for the intelligent control of robots. By using generative AI models, our systems can respond flexibly to new tasks and environments. Our solutions enable intuitive interaction between humans and machines, increase efficiency, and open up new possibilities in automation.

Embedded GenAI

Our expertise in embedded GenAI allows us to integrate powerful AI models directly into devices with limited resources. We develop customized solutions that do not require a permanent cloud connection and meet the highest security and data protection requirements. This is how we bring GenAI directly into products and applications.
