Research and Public Projects

Fraunhofer IDMT works closely with international research partners to develop long-term and mutually-beneficial public and privately-funded projects with industry, government, non-profits and other organizations.

Our focus is on broadcasting, digital TV and streaming services, radio and music industry players, and regulatory / law enforcement matters that include content moderation, deep fake detection, and forensics.

Fraunhofer provides leadership in the development of proposals, projects and programs, and seeks to develop new and expand existing partnerships with local, national and international organizations.

Fraunhofer IDMT works closely with researchers to champion their interests and goals. We analyze market opportunities and maintain a portfolio of partnership opportunities and then develop major projects by identifying, cultivating, closing and managing research partnerships to push our research agenda and further innovation.
