EDF Project: Autonomous Repair of Military Equipment - Seeking partners

Research Group Leader: Robotic Systems at Institute of Mechatronic Systems at Leibniz Universität Hannover

Hannover, Germany

About

The civil product is on the market and proven in over 100 industrial cases: Further R&D towards military/outdoor standards and integration in a modular container-based manufacturing system with teleoperation and non-expert HMI is necessary. We are looking for a consortium of industrial, defence and research partners, especially:

  • system and vehicle maintenance including prime defence contractors,

  • robotics, production technology, materials and process simulation,

  • communications and (cyber) security.

The next steps towards defence commercialization within an EDF project are achieving depot readiness, field readiness, teleoperation and increasing autonomy and reconfiguration.

Partners: Picum MT GmbH: system and process expertise; IMES:
increase system autonomy via sensor fusion and online learning of motion and process parameters
