System Design department
Our system design team is internationally positioned and consists of specialists for:
- PCB circuit design
- PCB layout
- Microcontroller development (C)
- Embedded applications/middleware software (C/C++)
- real-time Linux and TSN
- wireless sensor networks
- communications systems
- distributed energy-efficient hardware/software systems
- optimisation of AI algorithms for small embedded systems
Most of our research staff have academic degrees in electrical engineering, computer science and related fields.
Each year, we design several customised embedded systems in various application fields in research projects or directly for our customers.
We supervise up to 10 students per year in internships, bachelor and master theses at our location in Ilmenau. In addition, we provide staff for the SME Digital Team at IMMS.
We support you with research and development in the following areas

“From our point of view, the design IMMS came up with for the architecture was in itself convincing. Further, we were impressed by its support in integrating our application with the MQTT standard. Both during the ongoing joint field test in Jena and during the entire project period, IMMS staff were always readily available with prompt support if questions or problems arose.”
