Energy-autonomous IoT sensors

In Energy Harvesting, the Fraunhofer IIS develops technologies and systems for using energy from the environment to power small electronic consumers. The latest development is a so-called NarrowBand IoT module that collects and transmits utility data in a 5G network. To ensure that the modules and sensors can be operated energy independently, they were specially measured and optimized for energy consumption.

Tiny Machine Learning (TinyML)

Fraunhofer IIS has taken another step in the field of artificial intelligence by creating a new technology for small embedded systems with its new "TinyML". This method makes it possible to run applications energy-efficiently and independently of a cloud server. Its advantages enable companies to deploy artificial intelligence in the smallest possible space. embeddif.[ai] represents a product portfolio developed by Fraunhofer IIS.

Neuromorphic hardware

Current neural network architectures like deep neural networks require high computational complexity and power consumption. Neuromorphic hardware in contrast relies on massive parallel processing and performs calculations, e.g. for Machine Learning, faster and with less power.

RFicient® - Ultra-low power wake-up receiver

The energy-efficient RFicient® radio receiver technology with a current consumption less than 3 µA can receive radio telegrams in three license-free frequency bands simultaneously and independently of each other. This makes positioning systems for the localization of objects in warehouses possible, but also worldwide mobile applications, such as container tracking without manual frequency switching.

Deep SiL testing of embedded HW/SW systems

Deep SiL testing of embedded systems enables an agile development process as used by the SW industry for years. By using virtual hardware models, deep software testing can start way before hardware is available. This allows to deep test your system from the application layer down to the hardware withouth modifying your software which will increase the coverage significantly and produce more robust systems.

Modern system packaging solutions

New Innovative concepts are fundamental in order to meet the challenges for electronic systems owing to extended functionality and increasing miniaturization. Recent packaging-solutions not only have minimal space requirements but also allow a high data throughput with low energy-consumption. Fraunhofer IIS/EAS supports to master the complex design of packaging-solutions, exploiting degrees of freedom while considering the thermal, mechanical and electrical coupling.

Functional safety

Damage detection is about detecting damage before it causes the component to fail. In our case, the method of thermal spectroscopy is used. By measuring the transient thermal resistance, damage in the package of an integrated circuit or discrete electronic components can be detected before a functional failure occurs. It is then possible to react, i.e. repair or replace the component and thus prevent its failure.

Plug & Play platforms for wireless sensor technology and radar sensor technology

Fraunhofer IZM has developed two plug & play platforms, designed to quickly test and validate concepts for wireless and radar sensor technology. This removes the need for a separate and time-consuming configuration of the sensor and data processing technology, because both kits come with uniform interfaces and a configuration process, modules, and assemblies designed according to the Lego principle.
