Highly sensitive, intelligent medical sensor systems for caregiver relief, automated mRNA production, or Alzheimer's and depression research to achieve affordable and accessible healthcare for all.

At Fraunhofer IMS Burkhard Heidemann, Head of Embedded Software and AI, and Christian Wiede, Head of Embedded AI, are researching on intelligent AI solutions for various areas of life with their team. From industry to medicine applications in the fields of »Machine Learning« and »Computer Vision« promote innovation, sustainability and security in our society. »We create user-friendly and resource-efficient AI algorithms for small systems with maximum data security that run on any hardware. Through our extensive know-how in sensor technology and artificial neural networks, we are able to reduce performance overhead on a large scale.« Read now which projects and applications the colleagues from the department are researching.

Medical implants, community outreach, and looking to the digitized future of healthcare - Michael Görtz takes you inside his work and gives you insights into the life of a scientist.

Seven Fraunhofer Institutes are working on automated production technologies for innovative mRNA therapeutics. Fraunhofer IMS is contributing with the developing of the sensor technology and an AI-based data analysis to the lighthouse project.

Boxes of furniture and toys are just waiting to be unpacked. Things are progressing steadily in the »co-child office« and the inventory will soon be allowed to move into the freshly renovated room in its entirety.

Starting fresh: For some time now, we have been providing regular information about our research. Just as this is constantly developing, we are also creating a new appearance in communication and are presenting our newsletter redesigned as »MicroNews with big topics«. In addition to research and development, we now offer you exciting Insights from our institute as well as information about current Trade Fairs and Events.

The competence center CHIPS.NRW aims to promote young chip designers and design ecosystems. With partners from all over NRW Fraunhofer IMS is developing ideas for a virtual competence center to meet the growing demand for chip design specialists and components for a chip design ecosystem.

At AMI, Fraunhofer IMS, together with many other partners from industry and science under the leadership of Airbus, is pursuing the goal of designing the urban air traffic of tomorrow and expanding the infrastructure above the ground between cities.
