Research

We conduct research in four key areas to shape the future of mobility. Our work optimizes the use of transportation through connected, intermodal mobility and autonomous vehicle technologies. For safe human-machine interaction, we focus on ergonomic interfaces and perception psychology. Resilient systems and autonomous aircraft swarms enhance safety by responding quickly to disruptions. In sustainability research, we concentrate on climate-neutral energy and the decarbonization of transportation to reduce emissions. In this way, we contribute to the mobility of tomorrow.

Research Areas

Our institute combines expertise from three faculties and covers a broad spectrum, from vehicle and aircraft systems to acoustics, design, and artificial intelligence. This interdisciplinary expertise enables us to develop innovative and holistic solutions for complex mobility challenges. Our focus is on four overarching goals: autonomous movement and mobility planning, human-machine interfaces, safety and reliability, and sustainability through efficiency.

Research Projects

At our institute, we conduct research across a diverse range of projects, from airspace and vehicle technology to advanced design. Our work spans critical areas such as wildfire suppression, braking systems, simulation, rotor control, accident analysis, and more. With this broad expertise, we address real-world challenges and drive innovation for safer, more efficient, and sustainable mobility solutions.

Publications

We regularly publish our research findings in leading journals and at international conferences. Our publications range from scientific articles and conference papers to specialized books, providing comprehensive insights into our work. Through these publications, we share the latest findings and promote knowledge exchange with the global research community. Our work contributes to advancing technological innovation and shaping current developments in mobility research.
