Researchers at Fraunhofer IMS have developed artificial intelligence (AI) for microcontrollers and sensors that comprises a fully configurable artificial neural network – a platform-independent machine learning library with which self-learning microelectronics can be realized.

Fraunhofer is involved in a project researching a new method for testing the efficacy of vaccines.

In the Human Brain Project, 121 partners from twenty countries in Europe and North America have come together in twelve sub-projects. They are researching technologies based on natural models. Their common goal is to create a shared European scientific infrastructure for brain research, cognitive neurosciences, and other sciences inspired by the human brain.

Together with partners from industry and research, Fraunhofer IZM is optimizing the service life and maintenance requirements of offshore wind turbines.

Fraunhofer IAF in Freiburg has developed a measurement system that enables the contactless identification of various substances in real time. It is perfect for use in the pharmaceutical, chemical, and food industries.

At the beginning of July 2019, a new extension building was inaugurated at Fraunhofer IISB in Erlangen.

Fraunhofer ENAS has developed a modular method that overcomes previous hurdles in integrating carbon nanotubes (CNTs).

European research cooperation: low-power chips for mobile AI applications

New visions for microelectronics – as part of SEMICON West, and together with the French research institute CEA-Leti, FMD organized a workshop entitled New Paradigms in Microelectronics – Providing R&D for the 21st Century. From quantum technology to neuromorphic computing and microelectronic devices for the next generation, the focus of the event was on the development of hardware and technologies for next-generation computing.

Since 2004, Dr. Al Rifai held executive positions with many companies including Infineon, Qimonda, Centrosolar, OSRAM, and Continental, before joining Fraunhofer ISIT in 2017.
