Project Description


Project description:

Our research areas are guidance and control of manned and unmanned aircraft; simulation, parameter identification and flight safety; trajectory optimization; sensors, navigation and data fusion; and avionics and safety critical systems. The research infrastructure includes several flight simulators, test rigs, and manned and unmanned aircraft. We have established important partnerships and synergies with top research institutions and leading industrial players in the field of aerospace.

Our ultimate goal is the development and the application of highly sophisticated approaches tailored to real world applications and products, as well as to the demanding challenges of tomorrow.

Detailed topics will be discussed individually based on academic qualification and experience of the candidate.
