With the know-how of four scientific institutions on the subject of electronics and microsensors, an innovation campus was created under BTU leadership that will promote the transfer of R&D results and, in particular, technology-oriented spin-offs. The focus is on sensory systems for applications in industry 4.0, agriculture 4.0 and smart health. "In Cottbus, the competences of the partners BTU Cottbus-Senftenberg, Leibniz Institute for Innovative Microelectronics and Leibniz Institute for Highest Frequency Technology, as well as Fraunhofer Institute for Reliability and Microintegration and Fraunhofer Institute for Photonic Microsystems will be brought together synergistically for the first time," says Prof. Dr.-Ing. Harald Schenk, who is in charge of the project with a total of € 7.5 million from funds of the Immediate Programme for Structural Change by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research. In total, more than 40 scientists are involved in the project - including ten professors at the BTU alone.
