Research - general
Research collaboration
The CCASS of the Darmstadt University of Applied Sciences is the initiator of the research cooperation between the Darmstadt University of Applied Sciences, the Center for Sensor Systems (ZESS) of the University of Siegen and the Fraunhofer Institute for Manufacturing Engineering and Automation (Fraunhofer IPA) Stuttgart. On the one hand, joint research projects are applied for and on the other hand, support for the partners in ongoing projects has been provided since 2007.
The focus of the cooperation is applied sensor technology in the field of medicine and in particular orthopedic technology.

Funding applications
The CCASS has a pronounced know-how in the area of third-party funding acquisition. On the one hand, research funds can be applied for developments for which a potential customer expresses interest.
In addition, commission-based applications through our partner BENEFIT are also conceivable, especially in the area of SME funding.
Major research projects
For larger research projects, for example also EU tenders, CCASS would jointly acquire possible research funds with Fraunhofer IPA within the framework of the research cooperation.
