Freiburg relies on the future: new professorship for intelligent sensor systems!
Freiburg, Deutschland - The University of Freiburg receives a new foundation professorship to strengthen research in the field of intelligent sensor systems. This initiative is supported by Robert Bosch GmbH and Bosch Sensortec GmbH. Rector Prof. Dr. Kerstin Krieglstein sees funding as an important step for the Freiburg research location and the technical faculty. The professorship will primarily deal with the development of intelligent sensor systems that combine various physical sensor sources and address important areas of application such as medical technology and autonomous vehicles.
The Robert Bosch GmbH is a leading provider of microelectromechanical (MEMS) sensors that are used in both vehicles and consumer goods such as smartphones. Peter Wolfangel, member of the Mobility Electronics department at Bosch, emphasizes how important working with science is for future innovations. In addition, research focuses in areas such as biomedical microsystems and bioinspired systems are pursued in the Institute for Microsystem Technology (IMTEK).
research focus of the professorship
The goal of the new professorship is to develop sensors that are sensitive, precise and resistant to the fault. Important areas of research include the design of electronic circuits, the use of artificial intelligence to improve signal processing and the development of simulation models. This progress is intended to help expand the possibilities of sensors and to further optimize the connection between physical and virtual world.
In recent developments in microsystem technology, in addition to MEMS sensors, progress in the surrounding sensors for automated driving are also discussed. Bosch is also a pioneer in the development of quantum sensors who offer greater sensitivity than classic sensors. These new sensor systems could potentially find revolutionary applications in medical technology, for example in diagnosing neurological diseases such as Alzheimer's or Parkinson's. They even enable non -invasive diagnoses of the degeneration of brain areas.
extensive applications and future prospects
The use of intelligent sensors is not only limited to medical technology. Technology is also increasingly relevant in the area of Industry 4.0. The new developments could drive the integration of quantum magnet field sensors and the creation of "Brain-Computer interfaces". For example, control is made possible by people with disabilities or innovative interfaces for video games and augmented reality.
In addition, research is intensified to so -called "sensorless sensing". Existing network connections such as WLAN for data acquisition are used here, which creates new possibilities for digitization and automation. The future of intelligent sensors will be characterized by the combination of MEMS technology and advanced signal processing, which is important for both industry and everyday life.
In summary, it can be said that the new foundation professorship at the University of Freiburg not only means strengthening sensor system research, but also gives far -reaching impulses for the entire technology industry. This development will create the basis for innovations that are valid in both research and industrial application.| Details | |
