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.

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. 

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.

The safety lab at Fraunhofer FOKUS is a demonstration room and research laboratory and shows networked solutions in the field of public safety that put people at the center. For guests from the fields of science, politics, administration and business, the safety lab offers an independent framework to discuss the interaction of new technologies. It also sheds light on the legal, organizational, sociological and economic challenges for the use of technologies in practice. In various realistic scenarios, it shows processes and technical interrelationships in control centers and monitoring centers and how they can be connected to alerting technologies for the population.

In future, cities will change enormously due to a growing population, more traffic, increasing pollution, and other challenges. In various projects across our business units, the Smart Cities Lab is working on solutions to improve the future citizen's daily life.

Connected cars, autonomous and automated driving, collaborative as well as integrated and smart mobility are just a few of the topics that can be discovered in the Smart Mobility Lab.

Whether it is the electronic transfer of health records or the proactive care of emergency patients, the eHealth Interoperability Lab offers the state-of-the-art development and test environment for all relevant applications in the healthcare sector.
