Empowering the NHA platform!

Take a look at our current challenges in detail

BATCH 1 – START 2021

That was the first batch of the NHA! 

The teams of Faubel from Melsungen with Saralon from Chemnitz, W. & L. Jordan from Kassel with immersight from Ulm, the Kassel-based transition system specialist Hübner with Footfalls and Heartbeats from Nottingham (UK), and the Viessmann Group with Vypno cooperated successfully. That’s what the first batch, which ran until March 24, 2022, was all about:

Intelligent
Transition Systems

Hübner | Footfalls & Heartbeats

Intelligent
transition systems

Together with the British startup Footfalls & Heartbeats, HÜBNER has developed a use case for intelligent transition systems. By integrating sensors into elastomer-coated textiles, e.g. for transition systems of articulated buses or streetcar vehicles, data is generated to derive information about operating conditions during the journey.

Satellite based roof detection

Viessmann | Vypno

Satellite based roof detection

In the collaboration project between Viessmann and the startup Vypno, the measurement of roofs for the preparation of offers for PV systems was innovated. Based on satellite images, roofs including interfering surfaces can now be measured in a matter of seconds by a semi-skilled AI.

Virtual workspace

Jordan | Immersight

Virtual workspace

The creation of a virtual workspace was the objective of Jordan and the startup Immersight. With a 360° camera, a digital twin of the room was created in which measurements, documentation of work results and the use of the images in a virtual showroom for the flooring and interior design trade are possible.

Intelligent blisters

Faubel | Saralon

Intelligent blisters

The project team around Faubel and Saralon focused on tablet blisters with printed conductive tracks, which are intended to store the time at which the medication is taken. Based on several printing tests at Faubel, Saralon developed a special ink that plays a decisive role in the production of a "smart blister.
