#Smart Mobility

Projects

autoSHUNTING

Experimental development for highly-automated shunting operations in railway freight traffic

roboCOUPLING

Automated coupling and uncoupling process for rail freight cars with screw coupling

Seed funding to extend research in railway technology

Establishing a research focus on alternative engine systems, energy efficiency, digitisation and automation.

TerminalOnRail2

The project "TerminalOnRail2" examines the technical possibilities of a rail based feeder system for airports based on already existing infrastructure.

SoniControl 2.0

Extending SoniControl, the first ultrasonic firewall, that detects and blocks unwanted acoustic tracking on mobile devices.

CargoRider 2 – Innovative Mobility Service

"CargoRider 2" is developing a new innovative mobility offer for easier use of cargo ships that is based on sustainability paradigms.

VAST – Virtual Airspace and Tower

VAST aims at improving situation awareness of Air Traffic Control Officers and makes way for new technologies in European aviation.

SecureMobile – Reducing fears in mobility

Due to subjectively experienced fears, many journeys are made by car or taxi instead of using more sustainable forms of mobility. "SecureMobile" aims to counteract this effect.

LICORNE

An Integrated Platform for Life Cycle Costing in the Rail Environment - The exploratory project Licorne promotes international networking regarding life cycle costing in the rail environment.

EntKuRo

Goals of this project are to develop a breadboard to unscrew the coupler and the development of a breadboard for the final uncoupling.
