Autonomous trucks find their path – even in poor visibility
the Assistive & Autonomous Systems research group at the AIT center. For the vehicle to find its path through the construction site and for it to react dynamically to the given situation, it needs [...] environment with sensor data from imaging radar systems is the basis for the autonomous path planning. We have fused the data from different sensor systems to precisely determine the vehicle's position in [...] the Assistive & Autonomous Systems group at the AIT Center for Vision, Automation & Control. Led by Manfred Gruber, the Assistive & Autonomous Systems research group has already developed

Rail4Future: Start of the COMET project
Here, rail transport, as one of the most environmentally friendly and energy-efficient means of transport, has a decisive role to play in accelerating the reduction of emissions in the transport sector. However [...] life cycles of structures and thus contributing significantly to a resilient, resource-saving transport system of the future. Within the framework of Rail4Future, AIT is therefore particularly active in [...] reliable and cost-efficient assessment of rail infrastructure and thus to shape the digital rail system of the future. A novel, high-performance and fully virtual validation platform for large-scale s

AIT yearbook "Discussing Technology" on the topic of transformation
This can either manifest itself in massive system disruptions or even system collapses, which in turn force major changes in the social and economic system or enable the readiness for structural changes [...] changes. Or a conscious and forward-looking attempt is made to adapt systems structurally and institutionally in such a way that system disruptions do not occur. One cannot control and steer transformations [...] geopolitical disputes: Whoever is technologically ahead today (will) shape the world in the future. Dynamics and control of transformations Innovation researcher Matthias Weber explains that transformations
