Research Focus 2: Mobility
The Research Focus Mobility is working on technical innovations for assisted and automated driving (ADAS/AD) and on developing energy-efficient and emission-free vehicles. These mobility concepts of tomorrow are underpinned by research activities in the areas of data-based traffic systems and sustainable solutions for energy supply. In this sphere as well, innovations are only possible by rigorously deploying information and communications technology (ICT) and artificial intelligence (AI). This Research Focus encompasses the following topics:
- Advanced driver assistance systems, autonomous driving and functional safety
- Drive technology, battery and hydrogen drives
- Connected, intelligent mobility
- Environment sensors, virtualization
The researchers work at two institutes (Institute for Innovative Vehicle Drives, Institute for Driver Assistance and Connected Mobility) and other research-intensive laboratories.
