Institutes and facilities at the Ulm site

In Ulm, the city where Albert Einstein was born, DLR is conducting research into the key technologies of tomorrow: quantum technologies, quantum computing, artificial intelligence and next-generation batteries.

Institute for AI Safety and Security

The DLR Institute for AI Security conducts research into the fundamentals of artificial intelligence (AI) as well as application-orientated and practical AI developments. Safety-critical systems with issues relating to operational and attack security are at the centre of the development of methods and technologies. In addition to safety-critical aspects, ethical, legal and social issues are also specifically taken into account.

Institute of Engineering Thermodynamics

Together with the Helmholtz Institute Ulm (HIU), the DLR Institute of Technical Thermodynamics is conducting research into more powerful lithium-ion batteries, post-lithium batteries and solid electrolyte batteries. The DLR researchers use high-performance computers and quantum computers to model and simulate electrochemical processes in battery cells in order to increase their performance, storage capacity and service life.

DLR Quantencomputing Initiative

The DLR Quantum Computing Initiative is working with industry, business, start-ups and research to develop the technologies required to build prototype quantum computers. Commercially relevant products, services and applications for quantum computers are being developed at the Ulm Innovation Centre (IZUL).

Institute of Quantum Technologies

The DLR Institute of Quantum Technologies works with industry to develop high-precision measuring instruments for space travel. Based on quantum physical effects, these enable unrivalled accuracy and security in satellite communication and navigation.
