Identifying, collecting and using sustainability data – in the project lab “Digital Factory” led by Dr.-Ing. Jens Pottebaum, Felix Vollenkemper and Carmen De Groote, students developed a tool to evaluate the sustainability of a production process. Using software tools for simulation and real-time data and sustainability metrics, they analyzed the production of a remote-controlled car in the workgroup's Smart Automation Laboratory. After a…
After a successful first project year, the Decide4ECO research project consortium met at the associated partner Sonova –known for its brand Sennheiser. to present initial project results and set the course for the second project cycle. First demonstrators make the exchange of sustainability data via existing data rooms tangible. Initial functionalities to support engineers in the decision-making process for sustainable and recyclable products…
QuSine (a spin-off from our “System and Circuit Technology” workgroup) has been selected for a validation contract by the Federal Agency for Disruptive Innovation (SPRIN-D) - a significant milestone and a strong endorsement of its technological vision.
With the funding, SPRIN-D is supporting novel RF signalling technology that has the potential to fundamentally change radio frequency technology. The aim of the validation contract is to turn…
Since the International Conference on Software Engineering (ICSE 2024) in April, Michael Schlichtig, research associate in our Secure Software Engineering workgroup, has been intensifying his collaboration with Rodrigo Bonifacio from the Universidade de Brasília.
The cooperation builds on previous contacts: Prof Eric Bodden had already worked with Bonifacio on an earlier project. Now a new research collaboration is emerging from this, in which…
Professor Graessler continues her professorship at the Chair of Product Creation at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering. Under the motto “We're taking off!”, the team celebrated her decision with around 100 guests at the AStA Stadtcampus. Prof. Graessler rounded off the convivial evening with colleagues, students, and companions: “The research results of recent years demonstrate what we can achieve at the Chair of Product Creation.” The Heinz…
Collecting data with drones, processing it with AI workflows and visualizing the results in Augmented Reality – at the online event ‘Rescue Robotics in Dialogue’ hosted by the German Rescue Robotics Center (DRZ), Dr.-Ing. Jens Pottebaum presented groundbreaking technologies from the EU project CREXDATA. He focused on innovative solutions that make it possible to use “extreme” data effectively in heavy rainfall and flood scenarios. “With our…
Today would be Heinz Nixdorf's 100th birthday. On this day, we cannot simply work ‘normally’ in the office and laboratory: We are taking the day as an opportunity to pause for a moment and look back on his impressive life's work and honour how he shaped the research landscape in Paderborn.
Together with Fraunhofer IEM, we will listen to keynote speeches by Prof. Dr Nikolaus Risch from the Executive Board of the Heinz Nixdorf Foundation and Dr…
Tobias Cord-Landwehr, Christoph Böddeker and Frederik Rautenberg, research associates of our Communications Engineering Group, are in Hyderabad, India, from 6-11 April. There they will present two papers and a journal publication at the 2025 IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing (ICASSP).
ICASSP is a flagship conference of the IEEE Signal Processing Society and is being held in India for the first time on its…
