SMM 2024 - Visit the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft in hall B6, booth 327!

New applications for the maritime industry at the joint Fraunhofer stand

Press release / August 27, 2024

Five Fraunhofer Institutes will be presenting their current research projects live at this year's SMM, the world's leading trade fair for the maritime industry, from 3 to 6 September in Hamburg. In Hall B6 at Stand 327, they will be showcasing solutions that support shipowners, shipyards, ports, logistics service providers and the maritime supply industry in fulfilling their tasks. Fraunhofer research is characterised by individually tailored solutions and practical benefits

Press release (complete)

Excellence in Maritime Research.

The Fraunhofer Transport Alliance pools the transport-related expertise of its member institutes and works in various working groups within the individual transport sectors. The Fraunhofer Waterborne institutes have been exhibiting together at SMM for many years.

2024 will focus on the following exhibits:

Use of AR/VR technologies in nautical systems
Image and voice recognition solutions with AI on the terminal and on board
New materials in shipbuilding
Innovative simulations of highly dynamic processes
Solutions for holistic, intelligent shipyard planning
System and process monitoring using smart, energy-independent sensors

We look forward to your visit!
