Project description

The aim of the EFFEKT research project is to increase passenger comfort while at the same time improving efficiency through the integration of innovative processes and the intelligent connection of data structures. Cost- and technology-optimized production is also an important aspect of this application-oriented and broad-based undertaking.

The chair FAPS contributes to this among other things through the following measures:

Investigation of the high-frequency properties of conductive structures generated by means of LDS on various industry-relevant materials
Development and integration of antenna and sensor structures
Investigation of the mechanical strength, temperature resistance and flame retardancy of LDS-compatible polymers approved for aviation
Development and testing of a technology demonstrator in an aircraft-like environment (cabin mockup)
