Research Projects at Software Engineering

Most projects are carried out jointly with companies and other research entities at SDU, and are externally funded, supporting industrial collaboration and societal relevance. We support our employees in building their academic careers, and we happily assist those who wish to transition from academia to industry or vice versa. 

 

Fast and Efficient Robotic Automation via Re-Use of Data (FERA)

SDU is leading the FERA project, which has received over 14 million kroner from the Innovation Fund Denmark. Collaborating with partners such as Odense Robotics, Novo Nordisk, and Universal Robots aims to improve industrial automation solutions by using data from existing robotic solutions to create new ones, reducing costs and implementation time for new automation solutions.

DIREC: Edge-based AI Systems for Predictive Maintenance

Downtime of equipment is costly and a source of safety, security and legal issues. Today, organisations adopt a conservative schedule of preventive maintenance independent of the condition of equipment.

DIREC: Mobility Analytics using Sparse Mobility Data and Open Spatial Data

The mobility of people and things is an important societal process that facilitates and affects the lives of most people. Thus, society, including industry, has a substantial interest in well-functioning outdoor and indoor mobility infrastructures that are efficient, predictable, environmentally friendly, and safe.
