smartTOOL – Acquisition of process data close to the point of action
The intelligent tool holder smartTOOL was developed by Fraunhofer IWU and Fraunhofer IIS as part of the Fraunhofer Cluster of Excellence Cognitive Internet Technologies (CCIT) and records real-time data during machining using integrated sensors.
Adaptive process control during grinding with sensor integration close to the point of action
As part of the Fraunhofer Cluster of Excellence Cognitive Internet Technologies (CCIT), Fraunhofer IWU and Fraunhofer IIS have developed a test setup with a sensor for acoustic emission (AE) measurements during continuous generating grinding.
MUSC – Multiconnectivity Platform for resilient Smart Cities
The "MUSC" project is developing a multi-standard system architecture for smart cities. To this end, software components are to be made available at the interfaces to enable expansion and opening.
mioty® for smart irrigation in the city of Erlangen
To prevent the loss of trees in cities, a data-driven recommendation algorithm is being developed that determines when which urban tree needs to be watered. The mioty® wireless technology for data transmission is ideal for this task.
The transformation of the district town of Saarlouis into a smart city is to be made possible by, among other things, parking space monitoring, a traffic guidance system, sensors for recording environmental data and the reading of meter readings using mioty®.
In the "SMARTIES" research project, Fraunhofer IIS and the Max Planck Institute for Dynamics and Self-Organization (MPI-DS) are testing small weather balloons equipped with the wireless transmission technology mioty®. The aim is to develop a system of intelligent atmospheric tracers, known as SMARTIES.
The results from the was4wos project are intended to protect lone workers in the future and prevent unnoticed accidents by means of a reliable and fail-safe real-time system. The developed emergency signal system for lone workers thus helps end users as well as large companies to increase the safety of their employees and to reduce costs at the same time.
Critical screw connections protect all our lives and must be checked regularly. The intelligent screw connection enables wireless and energy-autonomous monitoring of the screw as a simple and universal assembly option.
The "EIOTI" project aims to develop an energy-optimized LPWAN base station that will be used for wireless sensor networks. The energy supply is to be provided entirely from energy sources in the immediate environment using energy harvesting.
mioty® in the agricultural sector – Regional Sensor Cloud Knoblauchsland
Building on the soil sensor technology sub-project of "FutureIOT", Fraunhofer IIS is continuing to pursue the collection and evaluation of sensor data in agriculture as part of the "Regional Sensor Cloud" (RSC) project.
The soil sensor technology sub-project of "FutureIOT" is concerned with technology and application research into future IoT systems for use in digital agriculture. IoT solutions for recording soil parameters are being developed and tested to ensure needs-based fertilization and the careful distribution of water.

Maintenance free mioty®-LPWAN with energy harvesting
Sensors with batteries are now a thing of the past. The combination of our Energy Harvesting- and mioty-technologies enables energy-efficient and maintenance-free operation of sensors.”
The FutureIOT joint research project develops IoT solutions for practical challenges in the “City.digital” and “Agriculture.digital” project domains. Robust radio transmission is provided by the mioty® LPWAN technology.
Components made of fiberglass composite are reliably checked for constant loads. Integrated sensors can record temperature and load data. These can be read out by means of wireless data and energy transmission.
