Explore-to-Innovate 2024

19 + 20 June 2024

Research and technology upclose and live

Technology transfer for the benefit of people, the economy and society

The future of mobility is becoming increasingly automated and digitalised. The automotive industry has to hold its own in the face of technological change and international innovation competition – as quickly and efficiently as possible. Experience living research and technology in this field!

The new “Explore-to-Innovate” forum consisting of two days, the Science Talk, the Evening Rollout (19 June) and the Track Day (20 June), presents a unique combination of specialist presentations, a technology exhibition and live demos in the lab and on test tracks. Together with our partners, we are creating a community to get the latest research results off the ground – technology transfer for the benefit of people, business and society.

The Institute for Driver Assistance and Connected Mobility gathers contributory research specialisms together under the motto: interdisciplinary research in close collaboration with the automotive industry.

The Institute for Driver Assistance and Connected Mobility at Kempten University of Applied Sciences Kempten and our research partners cordially invite you to drop by on 19 June 2024, to our Science Talk from 9 a.m. and to the Evening Rollout from 3 p.m. as well as on 20 June 2024 to our Track Day from 8:30 a.m. to the Innovation Park Allgaeu Airport in Benningen.

You can anticipate exciting presentations, insights into research and an entertaining evening with interesting guests – a day full of experiences and innovations.

We look forward to seeing you there!

  • “Time- and cost-optimized test bench measurement of particulate matter emitted by vehicle brakes during normal operation” - Felix Wachter, HSK
  • “Transforming the realism and usability of driving simulation” - Lisa Porter, rFpro

METAVI

  • Presentations at the end of the METAVI project- Hochschule Kempten, Schäffler, MdynamiX, Audi, AB Dynamics, Continental

METAVI is researching how people and their user experiences can be integrated into virtual development in order to qualify automated driving technologies at an early stage. The aim is to make it possible to subjectively experience technologies and driving characteristics using driving simulators in order to obtain early feedback for development decisions - and thus enable error-free development right from the start, a "first time right".

 

Live demos and exhibition on the test site on both days!

 

Evening Rollout

Wednesday, 19 June | 3-9 p.m.

Evening Rollout with key notes, panel discussions and surprise guest, where experts from research and development meet with decision-makers, funders, patrons, politicians and the press.
