Research collaborations

TU Ilmenau, the Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg, and TU Chemnitz work together in the CHIM research and innovation network. The competencies of the individual locations complement each other and create synergies, leading to joint projects and research developments. The three universities focus on the topic of human-machine interaction and cognitive systems (TU Chemnitz), intelligent sensor technology and complex systems (TU Ilmenau), as well as artificial intelligence and digital engineering (OVGU Magdeburg).
