fireKOMM
Integrierte Einsatzkommunikation für mobile Einheiten im Vegetationsbrandeinsatz
Duration 01.04.2026 - 30.09.2027, Funded by BMFTR
Show project description Hide project description
fireKOMM verfolgt das Ziel, eine zuverlässige und leicht nutzbare Kommunikationslösung für mobile Einsatzkräfte im Vegetationsbrandeinsatz zu entwickeln und in realitätsnahen Übungen zu prüfen. Vegetationsbrände führen regelmäßig zu Kommunikationsproblemen, da Einsatzkräfte häufig in Gebieten arbeiten, in denen Netze unzuverlässig sind oder nur einzelne Systeme funktionieren. Die beteiligten Organisationen nutzen zudem unterschiedliche Geräte und Anwendungen, was die Zusammenarbeit erschwert.
Das BIBA verfolgt dabei das Ziel, ein vermaschtes Kommunikationssystem zu entwickeln und prototypisch umzusetzen, das mobile Einheiten in Vegetationsbränden zuverlässig verbindet. Im Mittelpunkt steht die experimentelle Untersuchung, wie unterschiedliche Übertragungswege parallel genutzt und flexibel miteinander kombiniert werden können, damit ein stabiles Gesamtnetz entsteht.

The FacilityWatch project is developing a fully autonomous drone system for the efficient inspection of building facades. By using a docking solution, the system remains on-site and can independently detect damage, dirt, and thermal bridges using artificial intelligence (AI). The system reduces inspection costs, conserves resources through optimized maintenance, and improves workplace safety by eliminating high-risk operations at great heights. BIBA is responsible for the sensor technology, laser-based obstacle detection, and dynamic flight route planning. In collaboration with IS Predict, the project is also implementing data protection-compliant image analysis and precise localization for complex urban areas without GPS reception.

The research project “AMR-Launch” is developing an integrated, intuitive, cross-vendor system for commissioning and configuring autonomous mobile robots (AMRs). The aim is to make it easier for small and medium-sized enterprises in particular to use AMRs flexibly and to reduce their dependence on specialised personnel or external integrators. The system is based on AR-supported user environments, standardised AMR interfaces and an AMR abstraction layer. Operational staff can configure AMRs directly in the AR environment; automatic calibration synchronises the real environment, AR model and robot map. The approaches are being validated in practical application scenarios.

SharePort
Resilient Smartport: Enhancing Supply Chain Robustness through Dynamic Resource Sharing

Ports are facing intense competitive pressure and must invest in automation and digitalization. Fluctuating utilization levels lead to resource shortages during peak periods and idle capacities during quieter phases. SharePort aims to increase the resilience of the port system through resource sharing. Port stakeholders can lend out temporarily unused resources at short notice to avoid bottlenecks and optimize capacity utilization. In addition to functional resilience, sharing promotes cooperation between companies, creates new synergies, and thus strengthens the structural and social resilience of the port community. The project will develop a prototypical digital platform for managing sharing transactions, as well as a simulation game for various sharing scenarios.

In the research project AUSLASTMEISTER, an AI-supported platform is being developed for SHK craft businesses that enables collaborative quotation planning and intelligent lead and deal allocation. The solution analyzes customer requests, identifies the required trades and qualifications, assesses available capacities, and supports matching with suitable partner companies. This allows capacity bottlenecks to be mitigated through cooperation, more requests to be handled, and quotations to be integrated more effectively into operational planning.
