Logistics engineering
The logistics engineering research group is dedicated to researching and developing technological solutions for logistics applications with a strong technical focus. The group concentrates on topics such as the integration of advanced sensor technology, autonomous robotics, and specialized software for controlling, monitoring, and automating logistics processes. The goal is to make technological innovations specifically usable for the design of modern logistics systems – from intelligent warehouse robots to networked IoT structures. Through its focus on technical components, the group makes a central contribution to the further development of digital and automated logistics.
