Gauss-Olbers Space Technology Transfer Center
Industry 4.0 digital and innovation lab
Who are we?
Founded in January 2021, the Gauss-Olbers Space Technology Transfer Center (GOC) is an institute of Departments 01 (lead) and 03 at the University of Bremen.
The GOC aims to advance the bidirectional transfer of space knowledge and technologies through university education, research, and development for various fields of application in the Bremen region and beyond. Our aspiration is to develop technologies for society, in keeping with our motto: “Space – Science – Society”.
Under the motto “Space – Science – Society”, we pursue the integration of satellites into future communications systems as an essential component for true, worldwide digital infrastructure coverage and the improvement of various research fields such as earth observation.”
What do we do at the DHI?
As a scientific institute of the University of Bremen, the GOC transfers research and development findings from space technologies to business, society and the political sphere. In so doing, the GOC contributes to the structural development of Bremen by means of close cooperation, particularly with the partners of the DHI. Within the DHI, the GOC, with its expertise in the areas of 3D networks, is responsible for the sixth-generation mobile communications standard (6G), small satellites for megaconstellations, quantum technologies and exploration.
- Access for companies to a shared infrastructure, e.g., demonstrators and testing grounds, collaborative enhancement and validation of research and development findings.
- Consultation and knowledge transfer on space technologies, support for decision-makers in the economy and governing bodies in society with technological, political and strategic issues.
- Boosting research within the industry, addressing problems in operational practice for the development of new scientific research issues and topics.
Why the DHI?
This is a dummy text. It helps you to see whether all letters are present and how they look. Sometimes people use words like Hamburgevons, Rafgenduks or Handgloves to test fonts. Sometimes, they use sentences that contain all the letters of the alphabet – these sentences are called “pangrams”. The following is a very well-known example: The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. In addition, dummy texts often include foreign phrases (AVAIL® and Wefox™ are testing aussi la Kerning) to test the effect in other languages.
