Projects Future Applications and Media

360° video got quite popular and we have been working on solutions for efficient delivery of high-resolution content, especially also to TV devices (in addition to Head-Mounted Displays).

In the EXPAND+ER WB³ project, the vision of educator Otto Herz is applied to the field of vocational education. The technology partners of the BMBF-funded EXPAND+ER WB³ project develop a scalable platform that protects privacy and enables users to search for and receive recommendations for further education courses.

With the Control & Connect project, the project partners aim to promote seamless access to digital educational media for users, e.g., students and teachers, in line with the digitization strategies of the federal and state governments.

In TRIPLEADAPT, an adaptive, interoperable professional education platform will be created via the development of a digital triplet. Digital learning environments will then be extended by learning concepts with the aim of increasing learning success.

The National Education Platform, initiated by the BMBF, aims to provide a technical meta-platform based on open standards that creates the foundation for a interconnected, powerful and interoperable teaching-learning infrastructure. The Common Learning Middleware (CLM) developed by Fraunhofer FOKUS was selected by the BMBF as a prototype of the National Education Platform within the framework of the “mEDUator” project.

The armed forces want to access the innovative power of digital transformation. The vision of the study “AI support for learning management systems” is attractive, modern and targeted training that ensures the right personnel are well trained and capable of acting at the right time. To this end available functionalities from the fields of digitalization, artificial intelligence (AI) and big data are to be integrated into the existing training landscape of the armed forces. This exploratory study, which was commissioned by the Bundeswehr Planning Office, aims to demonstrate the added value and feasibility of an AI-supported learning management system.

REEVALUATE project will provide a holistic solution to the challenges of Cultural Heritage (CH) digitisation management, enabling collaboration, boosting creative reuse and promoting democratic and inclusive prioritisation and contextualisation.

The goal of the project is to create innovations, concepts, and energy-efficient solutions addressing the entire video streaming value chain from video creation to processing, delivery, and their usage on consumer devices.

SCENE’s platform will combine cutting-edge technology with a commitment to social responsibility and sustainability. From AI-based audience scouting, distribution mechanisms, and blockchain for IPR protection to 3D representations of monuments, the project is revolutionizing the industry while respecting the values of the European Bauhaus.

SMARTEDGE enables dynamic integration of distributed intelligent edge services. Integration together with reliability, security and privacy is achieved by enabling semantic-based interoperation of edge devices via a cross-layer toolchain
