Intelligent Sensors and Networks Real-time and Highly Reliable Data and Sensor Networks

Distributed and embedded intelligence from the sensor to the network – technologies combined for leading-edge product innovations.

The main focus of the R&D in CC ISN is in new communication and image processing technologies fulfilling the real-time high-reliability requirements of the applications and systems of the industrial partners.  Specialization is in intelligent architectures and protocols for the data communication over power lines (PLC), and in vision sensor systems (video content analysis VCA) and sensor fusion, and on the realisation of the system designs into distributed and embedded target systems (hardware and software).
