Institutes and centers
Center for Robotics and Automation
The CRA (Center for Robotics and Automation) is a competence center jointly supported by the departments of Electrical Engineering and Information Technology, Computer Science, and Mathematics and Natural Sciences, which deals with research and development issues in the fields of industrial robotics and factory automation. These include the development of PLC-based automation technologies, elements for visualization and process control (WinCC) or the solution of safety issues in the field of robotics and automation.
Darmstadt Institute for Statistics & Operations Research
DISO (Darmstadt Institute for Statistics & Operations Research) is the contact for statistics and operations research at Darmstadt University of Applied Sciences.
We advise and support
- students and teachers in research projects, doctoral theses and dissertations at Darmstadt University of Applied Sciences
- third-party funding and research projects with external cooperation partners
- projects of the university administration and publications
Research Center Applied Computer Science
Researchers from the fields of computer science, mathematics and natural sciences, electrical engineering and information technology, mechanical engineering and plastics technology as well as media apply their findings to social issues in the areas of industry, healthcare, trade, telecommunications, media, culture and tourism. Current topics include machine learning and artificial intelligence, data science, cloud computing and mixed reality - to name just a few.

Research Centre for Materials and Process Engineering
Researchers from the Departments of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Mechanical and Plastics Engineering and Civil and Environmental Engineering founded this center in 2017, which deals with issues of resource efficiency. Existing processes are to be made more efficient and new processes developed. Simulations are used to investigate the dependence of product properties on the process steps in order to be able to make optimum use of the properties of raw materials in the future.

Working Group Algorithms for Computer Vision, Imaging and Data Analysis
Sometimes the data measured does not directly give the information one is interested in; the measured data needs to be processed and the required information needs to be extracted.
The central topic of ACIDA (Algorithms for Computer Vision, Imaging and Data Analysis) is the development and application of algorithmic solutions to such kind of problems in Computer Vision, Imaging and related Data Analysis problems.
