The FAME 5G Media Testbed (F5GMT) enables the development, testing, evaluation and demonstrations of Media Applications and Services operated within a 5G and in the future in 6G environments.

Be part of the 5G Evolution. The next generation of mobile networks is taking shape now. With the purpose of contributing to this network evolution and accelerating the adoption of the 5G technology Fraunhofer FOKUS has set up the 5G Playground.

The 5G+ Nomadic Node consists of robust, transportable server rack containers with the hardware and software needed to set up a 5G campus network in just a few minutes. The software-based core network Open5GCore guarantees a highly flexible network in “standalone” operation tailored to the application.

The joint “Open 5G Campus Network for the Software-defined Factory” in Berlin located at Fraunhofer FOKUS and IPK is an open environment for testing the end to end performance of integrated 5G standalone components from different vendors within specific customer use cases for the automation industry.

The new Automotive Interoperability Lab offers research and development services for automobile manufacturers and suppliers in the field of the development and testing of software-intensive automotive electronic systems.

The Blockchain Workshop bundles the activities of the DPS and SQC business units of Fraunhofer FOKUS around blockchain and distributed ledger technologies. The Blockchain Workshop focuses on digital administration, the energy sector, open data, open science, quality assurance, identity management and the Internet of Things.

The CertLab supports the certification of IT products on behalf of the Federal Office for Security in Information Technology (BSI). The "CC certification procedures" guarantee that software and hardware products that are newly placed on the market are safe and trustworthy.

Innovative visualization technologies and opportunities for interaction are tested at the Computer Graphics and Visualization Lab, host of multiple projection screens (dome, curved screen) and multiple advanced projectors.

The Conformance and Interoperability Test Lab is a laboratory for the development and execution of tests in wireless and wired environments. 

At the Fraunhofer FOKUS eGovernment Lab, we have been working with more than 60 partners from administration, business and research in a neutral environment since 2004 to drive forward the digitalisation of public administration.

The TV Lab offers an extensive, manufacturer- and provider-neutral test and development environment for the latest hybrid TV technologies, TV devices, media formats, interactive content and multi-screen applications.

Alongside technology for cloud-based 360° video playout, interactive 360° streaming and non-linear video (NLV), the Future Applications and Media Lab also offers applications that drive end user and device interaction – such as for HbbTV.

The IPv6 Test Lab bundles SQC’s competencies in the area of IPv6 testing and offers a wide range of services to potential partners.

Programming without in-depth prior knowledge. In our low code workshop, we test low code technologies for public administration. We want to support employees in applying this innovative approach to the digitalisation of processes and specialist procedures.

The Open User Lab supports public administration and the judiciary in digitalisation projects with methodological competence and scientific expertise in the areas of user-centred design, user experience and digital accessibility. In addition, the Open User Lab supports the transformation of the state and administration in organisational development projects with lab concepts and e-learning formats.

The "Research Data Infrastructure" research group is based at Fraunhofer FOKUS and cooperates closely with the "Research Data Infrastructure" department at TU Berlin, which is headed by Prof Dr Sonja Schimmler. The group researches data infrastructures and data tools for interdisciplinary and data-intensive researchers.
