The employees of the three business units at the Fraunhofer Austria Center for Sustainable Production and Logistics have expertise in all areas of Industry 4.0 and digital transformation and carry out research and development activities together with scientific partners and companies of all sizes and sectors.

The Center for Data Driven Design visualizes and analyses data collected by companies of all industries and all areas of public life in order to make the best possible use of them. The methods, which are based on artificial intelligence, visual computing or a combination of the two, can be applied in all industries, areas and fields  - be it products, components, processes, structures, environments, buildings or rooms. Using these methods, the researchers at the Center DDD develop specific proposals for complex data-based decisions, thus increasing the certainty for users when choosing the best alternative.
