Application Center MRO

Application Center MRO
The most prominent technologies from the fields of robotics, 3D measurement, augmented and virtual reality, position tracking as well as drone and inspection technologies form the Application Center’s key components.

Working in close collaboration with partners from the scientific and industrial sectors, the Application Center MRO provides the means for these research topics to be developed, demonstrated and evaluated in the practical sense.

Design / Concept

The Application Center MRO serves as a research and development platform for new technologies to implement innovative maintenance-related digitalisation and automation processes. Current research topics are demonstrated, evaluated and developed in close collaboration with partners in the business and scientific sectors. The most prominent technologies from the fields of robotics, 3D measurement, augmented and virtual reality, position tracking as well as drone and inspection technologies form the Application Center’s key components. An open-plan laboratory space is freely available to pair up existing systems with experimental setups, as required.
