The Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft (www.fraunhofer.de) currently operates 76 institutes and research facilities in Germany and is the world's leading organization for application-oriented research. Around 30,000 employees work on the annual research volume of 2.9 billion euros.
Adaptivity is an indispensable characteristic for the networked world of tomorrow. Intelligent components can recognize and evaluate changes in the environment or in the system itself and adapt to them independently. As a partner to industry, Fraunhofer IIS/EAS develops key technologies for networked adaptive systems and offers innovative technologies and robust solutions with around 120 employees at its Dresden site.
Wireless communication is a key technology here. Especially for industrial applications, the "Industrial Wireless Communication" group is developing a real-time wireless technology together with teams from other IIS locations. Through your collaboration, you will make an important contribution to flexible and resource-efficient production processes and many future-oriented applications such as robot-robot collaboration.
