ImPaKT Abschlusstreffen

Suc­cess­ful fi­nal meet­ing of the Im­PaKT pro­ject

The BMBF-funded research project ImPaKT, which was launched in 2021, is coming to an end after 3 years. The jointly developed software prototypes enable end-to-end model-based mapping of systems and model-based impact analysis for the evaluation of technical changes. Industrial case studies showed the great relevance for future product development: a tracked undercarriage from CLAAS Industrietechnik GmbH, a balancing machine from Hofmann Mess-…

Signalgenerator

Precise signals play an important role in various applications - from measurement and radar systems to telecommunications. In telecommunications in particular, ever larger amounts of data have to be transmitted in ever shorter periods of time. If the signals used for data transmission are not highly precise, this can lead to errors in communication. A research group at Paderborn University is therefore working on a so-called signal generator in…

Bessere Radarsysteme im Auto: Forschung­s­pro­jekt will Ef­f­iz­ienz und Sich­er­heit des auto­mat­is­ier­ten Fahrens steigern

Durch immer bessere Sensoren im Auto soll die Zukunft autonomer Fahrzeuge näher rücken. Wie moderne Radarsysteme optimal in die Kunststoffoberflächen von Stoßstangen und Spiegeln integriert werden können, untersuchen Partner*innen aus Wissenschaft und Wirtschaft in einem neuen Projekt. Die Idee: Elektronische Komponenten sollen anstatt auf einer Leiterplatte direkt auf dreidimensionalen Spritzgussteilen integriert und verschaltet werden. Dadurch…
