Officials from DLR, Germany's national aeronautics and space research centre, have agreed with Tecnun and Ceit-IK4 to strengthen the collaboration channels they have been working on since 2011.

For this reason, they have signed a collaboration agreement that will enable them to set up joint working teams, advance international research projects in the field of mobility and transport, including rail, automotive and maritime, and exchange doctoral students and researchers.

The aim of the agreement is to find solutions to current traffic problems, while developing innovative projects to address the future of mobility and transport in Europe. DLR, Tecnun and Ceit-IK4 will carry out research in the following areas, among others: signalling, navigation systems, vehicle location and control; monitoring systems, new generation wireless communications; predictive maintenance, assisted driving and energy optimisation.

In addition to joint research, the agreement will enable researchers and engineering students to complement their training at DLR, while staff from the German centre will be integrated into the teams at Tecnun and Ceit-IK4.
