Projects and products

Our research and development work happens within the framework of projects - these include equally R&D contracts with industrial customers, publicly funded (collaborative) research projects, and pre-competitive research projects funded by Fraunhofer. You can browse through many of these projects below - as well as products, i.e. results of our R&D activities that have reached a high level of technological maturity.

Please note:

  • The most recently updated projects and products are displayed first.
  • You can filter the list by department or business unit assignment as well as by free-text search terms - but for the latter, the spelling must be exact.

  • Game-based Learning

    "Digital game-based learning" refers to learning games that increase motivation to learn and are distinct from frontal teaching, literature studies or seminars. These technology-supported forms of learning were developed for schools, universities and companies and are intended to serve as a support here.

  • KI-LMS, Artificial intelligence for learning management systems

    Artificial intelligence (AI) - the ability of a machine to imitate human abilities such as thinking, learning, creative behavior or even planning - was for a long time only conceivable in science fiction literature. In the project "AI Support for Learning Management Systems", three Fraunhofer Institutes investigated how digitization, artificial intelligence and BigData can be used in adult education.

  • CACTUS-3D in the context of civil security

    4D crime scene reconstruction and geo-referenced image retrieval from mass image and video data

    In the investigative field, the need for automated, retrograde image evaluation is increasing immensely due to the rapidly growing amount of image and video data. Intelligent image evaluation procedures offer numerous possibilities here to support police force investigation teams. With CACTUS-3D, we offer an integrated solution to support the processing of mass image and video data for retrograde investigations of crime scenes.
