The project continues the research work and test operation of the Biolab project. In addition to existing research focuses, the project is also dedicated to new approaches in biometrics, such as the development of quality metrics for synthetic characters and the use of time-of-flight cameras to detect overpass attacks.

CBRN incidents and resulting casualties are a permanent threat across the continent. In past incidents, First Responders were often required to provide help without having conducted sufficient training on how to operate in CBRN incidents. Moreover, First Responders seldom are aware of the risks that CBBN material poses to their health. The management of a CBRN scene including the recovery of persons concerned requires standard operating procedures, advanced skills and suitable equipment. A step-by-step approach needs to include (1) detection of the CBRN threat, (2) triage of casualties and (3) on-site decontamination before the provision of medical aid. The aim is to establish a unified framework for evaluating capabilities, procedures and co-developed solutions to be used in CBRN-E preparedness and response.

The aim of the project is to develop a new system approach for optical 3D imaging cameras that combines different measurement approaches in an extended measurement architecture and thus overcomes the current limitations of today's 3D cameras. The technology to be developed should enable robust and safe operation, especially in functional safety applications. To this end, the measuring range and robustness in the detection of fast movements are to be improved compared to the state of the art. The planned basic technology is the ToF camera method (time-of-flight method). FKZ: 13FH554KX1

The "Digital Twin-4-Multiphysics Lab" (DT4MP) focuses on urban digital twins (UDTs) and multiphysics twins for industry, treating both areas equally and synergistically. By integrating real-time data and advanced simulations, DT4MP enhances urban processes, infrastructures, and industrial production efficiency. Combining AI and machine learning, the lab provides services like data analysis and virtual testing for SMEs and larger companies. Founded by leading institutes, DT4MP drives digitalization research in urban and industrial contexts.

Modern sensor technology and mobile measuring systems enable close monitoring of environmental data and pollution. Examples are climate data and trends, pollution and emissions, or changes in the microclimate due to large-scale construction measures. Through municipalities ("Smart Cities"), but also in citizen science ("Citizen Science" and "Citizen Sensors") projects, a wide variety of sensor systems are used, which can also provide important information in the event of disasters and major damage.

The Biolab project is dedicated to the continuous and comprehensive evaluation of biometric systems. The project investigates the performance, security and usability aspects of biometric systems. The results lead to training courses and workshops for authorities, police forces, manufacturers and end users. The Biometrics Evaluation Center (BEZ) at the Sankt Augustin campus is the place of implementation.

Cities and municipalities must create the right framework conditions for road traffic so that it is compatible for everyone from an ecological, economic and social point of view. To ensure this, precise measurements of traffic volumes and a classification of road users are required.
